320 X 240 Landscape Resolution Problem

I'm working on a game for WM6 phones with landscape (320 x 240 px) screen such as T-Mobile Dash and Black Jack.
No matter which 320 X 240 game resolution I choose (Other than 320 X 240 Pocket PC Rotate Right), It becomes "320 X 240 Rot.Left."
"320 X 240 Pocket PC Rotate Left," "320 X 240," and "320 X 240 GP32" in Game Resolution drop-down menu all become "320 X 240 Rot.Left" once Game Properties window is reopened.
I tried to run my game on WM6 Emulators and Actual phones and the result is indeed rotated left!
How can I get 320 X 240 game resolution without rotation?

This problem was solved in the current source code based, but I can't compile the Windows Mobile/Pocket PC engine now.
Any help for compile the current engine will be welcome.

can you tell when the next update will be released, hopefully with the necessary fix for the problem?
I need to quickly decide which game engine I will stick to for the game I'm currently making.
I've done some prototype mobile games in GameEditor and I love the way it works, compare to J2ME and other tools.

I've compiled the modifications, but the engine is not running. I'm trying to see what's happen.

The game shows for a few second and displays the error message.
here is the screen shot.

Have you used an emulator or a real device?

On actual device I tested with (T-Mobile Dash, also known as HTC EXCALIBUR) the program runs for about one second (same as on emulator) and just ends without out a message. I'm not sure the game is intended to end in a second or terminated due to an error. I believe the emulator displays the error message because it has a debugger.

Great!. the file worked on both the emulator and smart phone. the game froze once, though, and i hope it's not GE related.
I purchased GE months ago. Should I wait for the next update or compile the source before I resume my development for smart phones?
Thanks for your work.

Just replace the pocketpc.bin file in the bin folder of your Game Editor installation.

Can you post pocketpc.bin here?
The source seems like a Visual Studio 2008 project which I do not have.
Thanks.

The pocketpc.bin file is in the pocketpc.zip file in my previous post.
