local logger = require("logger")
local frBuffer = require("ffi/framebuffer_android")

frBuffer.setRotationMode = function(self, mode)
  logger.info("Forcing software rotation")
  frBuffer.parent.setRotationMode(self, mode)
end

frBuffer.getRotationMode = function(self)
  return self.cur_rotation_mode
end

Thank you! On my device, an old tablet with Android 8.1, the script worked correctly even when I set the tablet to auto-rotate.
