[QUOTE="Pop Sergeant, post: 206241, member: 920"] No, I didn't explain well. Sorry. . I was trying to say that when I installed ARL and set it to force portrait, ARL deactivated my device's auto-rotate setting. While ARL was active in Portrait mode and my device's auto-rotate was off, everything on my device was forced to landscape for some strange reason -- probably the "not playing well with Samsung" issues you wrote about. Anyway, the solution wasn't to deactivate ARL, but to just manually turn my device's auto-rotate back "on" -- that resolved the issue all around. I didn't want to take a chance messing around with it any further while I was trying to get a few mobile tournament scores submitted in the little time I had available, but I think I'll try Arjan's approach and set ARL to "auto" the next time I use it. The strange thing about this whole situation is that this never happened before the latest TPA release, and I'm a pretty heavy user in my spare time, but I get the impression from your previous posts that it's been a known issue since February 2015. Oh, well, good to go now and that's all that really matters in the end, but I do hope it gets patched at some point. Thanks again, Mike -- your suggestion saved the day. [/QUOTE]
