Phone library:

From the help:

SetScreenOrientation

Method

Changes the current activity orientation. This method cannot be called from a service module.
Orientation: -1 for unspecified, 0 for landscape and 1 for portrait.

Returns : Void

SetScreenOrientation(Orientation As Int)

Best regards.

Klaus's method is the way to go:

Load the phone library

Dim Phone as Phone
Phone.SetScreenOrientation(1)

i saw a lot of exemple to set orientation with the phone librarie...

but i need to know the what is current orientation ? (if it's landscape or portrait)

It's important to say, that you need this in a service ("Live Wallpaper" is a service). But, it's not possible to set the orientation on a service with a switch or the manifest.

You must draw your picture/background corresponding to portrait when landscape is detected...

Sorry, it's not a simple thing to do this on a service... ;-)

If 100%x < 100%y Then         'portrait
         
   Else                     'landscape
         
   End If

Beginner's Guide chapter 17.25 Detect screen orientation.
Or in the search field 'detect screen orientation' the first result gives you the solution !

If Activity.Width > Activity.Height Then
   Orientation = "Landscape"
Else
   Orientation = "Portait"
End If

Best regards.
