Any way to trick apps into landscape mode

Perhaps someone who has HC installed could try installing this .apk and see what happens.

Yeah, but forcing it might not give the best app experience. I try later tonight when I get home. Also spare parts might do it because of the ability to run apps in compatibility mode, but might also require root.

Is it possible to open up a .apk and change the orientation settings?

I don't think anything Spareparts does need root.

After installing the honeycomb spare parts, no compatibility mode was available in the options. The same APK shows compatibility mode when installed on a tablet.

I think there is another spare parts app called spare parts plus. Try it.

all of these apps require root, unless I missed something HC doesn't have that yet. We need a no-root solution.

Some apps crash upon opening with a message that something failed upon landscape mode. I used "Smart Rotator" to force this app to landscape and the message doesn't apear anymore and the app works fine.

I have been using the app Orientation Control since it was posted here last year, it works with no problems...
