title: iPhone locked in portrait mode
body: <p>My question is similar to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3691965/iphone-locked-portrait-ipad-locked-landscape">this</a> thread</p>
  
  <p>which says to lock the iPhone in portrait mode and doesnot allow it to go to landscape mode.</p>
  
  <p>This can be done easily but my concern is I want to lock all the applications running to the portrait mode in iOS 4.</p>
  
  <p>That is if I have locked the orientation mode and has minimised my application then the none of the application in iPhone shall go to landscape mode.</p>
  
  <p>So my question is</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Is it possible</p></li>
  <li><p>if yes then how? Any ideas or link will be really appreciated.</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Edit: I know this is already available in iOs 4.0 but its hard to find also this is just for information purpose.
  For those who disagree: check out the <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/in/app/orientationlock/id384597941?mt=8" rel="nofollow noreferrer">link</a></p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance...</p>
  
  <p>Edit: <strong>Finally as per everyones suggestion I think it is not at all possible to lock other applications orientation through our application.</strong></p>
