    Hello! I have the same issue as http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/cant-disable-portrait-orientation-in-windows-phone-8-1.360047/ . My application starts, i see splash screen (landscape orientation) and after some seconds orientation of splash screen becomes portrait. Unity version 5.3.2p3 . My PlayerSettings are:

    PlayerSettings.defaultInterfaceOrientation = UIOrientation.LandscapeLeft;
    PlayerSettings.allowedAutorotateToLandscapeLeft = true;
    PlayerSettings.allowedAutorotateToLandscapeRight = true;
    PlayerSettings.allowedAutorotateToPortrait = false;
    PlayerSettings.allowedAutorotateToPortraitUpsideDown = false;

    Package.appxmanifest has section:

    <m3:InitialRotationPreference>
    <m3:Rotation Preference="landscape" />
    </m3:InitialRotationPreference>

    How can i solve this problem? I need only landscape orientation of splash screen.

    Does it happen when application switches from splash screen to MainPage (which contains extended splash screen)?

    Is it Windows Phone 8.1, not Windows Phone 10?
    Also, which Unity version are you on?

    On Windows 10 those orientations in the manifest apply only to splash screen, elsewhere you have to use WinRT API and set supported orientations, so you can do that in the application before navigating to MainPage. On older versions it used to work fine with manifest alone, IIRC.

    "Is it Windows Phone 8.1, not Windows Phone 10?" - Yes, is it Windows Phone 8.1 . I'am making builds to device running on Windows Phone 8.1 OS.

    "Also, which Unity version are you on?" - Unity version 5.3.2p3 . SDK: Universal 8.1 . Visual Studio 2015 Community Update 1.

    Оn my PC Windows 10 OS .

    Does forcing orientation by code in the App work?

    I set on Unity side at Awake() Screen.orientation = ScreenOrientation.LandscapeLeft; -> splash screen still rotating (the same behaviour)

    Send bug report to Unity with example empty Unity project (only with splash screens): Case 770092
