Can I lock rotation with iphone?
IPhone 4 ships with iOS 4 and also has this capability. To enable rotation lock and prevent the screen from automatically changing orientation when the iPhone is turned:
1. Double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.
2. Swipe right until the last set of icons is displayed in the multitasking bar (these will include play/pause and skip buttons for iPod or Pandora).
3. The furthest left icon looks like a circular arrow - touch this icon to enable or disable rotation lock on the iPhone.
4. A rotation lock icon will appear in the status bar next to the battery charge icon when rotation lock is enabled. This looks like a circular arrow around a padlock.
When rotation lock is enabled apps will not respond to the accelerometer sensor.
If you mean preventing it from changing from portrait to landscape when you shift your phone, then yes. If you mean something else, then I can't say for sure.
If you do mean the first one, here's how:
Double click the home button. This will pop open a list of your most recently opened apps. Put your finger on that list and scroll to the right. From the left side of the screen, a music menu will pop up. The far left button locks your phone on portrait orientation.
There might be ways to adjust other things regarding an iPhone's screen orientation, but I don't know anything about them.

- Iphone tossing your phone to flip without Left-Right rotation? This is a physics question. Take your phone out from your pocket. Hold it out on your right hand having your thumb on the bottom middle of your phone (front side) and having your Index and middle finger on the middle of the back of your phone. Try and do a perfect backflip. Notice how your phone will try and rotate from left-to-right while doing the flip. It's almost impossible to do a perfect backflip. Why is this?
- Iphone lock button broken, is there any alternative to lock iphone? My iphone 3G lock button is totally damaged and is out of warranty and I can't afford to get it repaired. I was wondering is there any app which can convert "silent" button to lock button. Or may be an app on which i can manually lock the device. By the way my Iphone is jailbroken, and "accessibility" is not accessible.
