@nhirata Probably is, might even be a dup. 

From testing screen orientation with app manifests recently, I noticed that an "app" gets stuck in portrait mode basically when there's an error on the screen orientation underlying API (there was a bug I filed in bugzilla that showed that if you gave an invalid value for screen orientation, the orientation would default to "portrait").

This seems to work fine for me on the latest 2.2 build. Must've been fixed at some point.
