Portrait mode doesn't stick between sessions

[Elaborendum]

1. Enable portrait mode
2. Restart the app
3. There's a chance its in portrait mode, most of the time (for me) it isn't.
4. Repeat the process relaunching the app until its in portrait mode

Even if its finally launched in portrait mode, next time I open the app its back to landscape and I have to relaunch it multiple times for it to turn portrait. The check for portrait mode never unticks on its own either, it can be clearly on landscape while portrait is enabled in the settings since before the last launch.

I wasn't able to verify this bug happening on 0.17.21 (Redmi 9, MIUI 13, Android 12)

Are you sure you have the latest version of Techmino?

Also if you're on iOS have you tried orienting your phone differently when opening the app?

This mode always has some magical behavior lol
Especially Apple devices

Forgot to specify my setup. I'm on version 0.17.21, on a Galaxy A12, OneUI 5.1, Android 13. Just installed right it from GitHub. Still happens even if I have locked orientation or not.

The reddit thread I originally found Techmino through also had a user with the same problem https://reddit.com/r/Tetris/comments/11466xf/is_there_a_good_app_for_android/j8vxys0/?context=3. But its from one year ago.

I think it may only on oneui, is there anyone else who can test it?

Cannot verify on my device (0.17.21, Galaxy S23, OneUI 6.1, Android 14).

I decided to try reproducing this bug one more time for some reason, and was finally able to confirm it exists.

It seems to be a lot rarer than how OP suggested it was. Or one of us got unlucky.

Maybe it has to do with how quick you relaunch Techmino?

It happens consistently for m. First time it took like 4 relaunches to turn it portrait. Played a bit, then closed the app. Tried launching it again a few hours later and it was back to landscape and relaunched it a bunch of times before it went back to portrait.

If anyone knows the superuser key and experiences this bug, I'm curious what the output of this command would be, under superuser mode in the Techmino terminal:

#return fs.read('conf/settings'):find('"portrait":true')

When it's working properly it returns a positive integer. When it isn't it may return -1... or not.

Nevermind, when portrait mode isn't working it still returns a positive integer... That's really strange.
