iOS 7 iPhone Launch Image is black for landscape-only app

Question

I've tried this solution, but now do I have to actually support portrait?

Answer 1

Try to remove the image, clean the project then relaunch xCode.
If it still not working, open the organizer and delete the temporary data.

Answer 2

Avoid using asset catalogs to manage the launch images of landscape applications. Except for launch images used by the iPhone 6 Plus, asset catalogs assume that all iPhone launch images are for the portrait orientation. When your application is compiled, entries for each launch image are added to the compiled information property list under the UILaunchImages key. The value for the UILaunchImageOrientation key in each of these entries is always Portrait. These entries are then ignored at launch time because the value of Portrait for the UILaunchImageOrientation key does not match the launch orientation (Landscape Left or Landscape Right). The result is a blank screen during launch as the system cannot find an appropriate launch image.
