this sounds like it might be bug 851642 again

Agreed

Turns out this is a different bug.

I'm suspicious this is a platform bug. There's some weird behavior that happens when you get into this state - I saw the wallpaper disappear on the homescreen a second ago.

Can someone from the platform and apps partner engineering team find out if:

1. Is this a platform bug or a third-party app bug?
2. Can this be worked around by the app developer if it's a platform bug?

If this ends up being a platform bug and can't be worked around by the app developer, then this is a tef+ blocker, as this is a target 1.01 preinstalled app.

Tony & I discussed this more. We think this is an app developer bug, but we're not 100% sure.

Harald - Can you take a look?

This surely looks like bug 851642, the phone switched to landscape when it should be locked to portrait.

The game calls lockOrientation when the page loads. Can anybody tell me if there is a different best practice? Should I micro-manage orientation by unlocking it on page hidden and locking it again on page visible?

I actually think this is different. When you test this, you'll notice that when selecting the home button, the orientation does not change, but the app shifts over by a bit. The touch actions appear to fall out of sync too.

Can't you set the orientation in the manifest?

Clarifying STR:

1.  Launch Game Pack
2.  Select Tip Tap Tile
3.  Rotate device to landscape
4.  Tap to continue > Start > Start (now you're in Level 1)
5.  Tap the Home button in the lower right corner

Observe: screen shifts over to the left

Still broken on Unagi 1.0.1, but unable to duplicate on Inari v1.1.  Assuming something got fixed along the way.

Reopened per the dupe. This isn't fixed.

It looks like this is actually scrolling the entire page. Fixed it by setting the body element to `overflow: hidden`.
