I want to get that "app" from Cydia, don't know the name off the top of my head, but the one that prevents it from auto-rotating. Drives me nuts when using the phone laying down. I remember awhile back there was a thread about it not working right on 3.0. Is that still the case? Also, i'm probably upgrading to 3.1.2 and re-JBing sometime soon, so is it fully functioning on 3.1.2? If not I'll stay on 3.0 JB for a bit until more things work with 3.1.2 JB.

Also, does it lock rotation for EVRYTHING, or just certain things?

Thanks.
 
Rotation lock works on 3.0. I have no idea about later versions, as yet I have seen no compelling reason to upgrade from 3.0. I can't think of anything it doesn't lock. To get it in a particular orientation you might need to enable and disable rotation. A lot of apps seem to default to portrait, so if the sensor is disabled apps will open in portrait and not turn. You have to enable, put it in landscape and then disable to lock it in landscape. Not hard with SB settings of course.
 
I am using "Rotation Inhibitor" through SBSettings, and it works great on 3.1.2

Rotation Inhibitor works wonders, and there is an easy way to turn it on and off through SBSettings, but i dont think i've ever used landscape except for pictures
