Android :: AVD Screen Orientation Not Changing With CTRL+F11 Or CTRL+F12
Apr 26, 2010
I run my app in the AVD emulator using eclipse but I'm unable to change the screen orientation in the AVD (Android 2.0 platform on the emulator).When I press CONTROL+F11 or CONTROL+F12 on the keyboard, nothing happens. No messages are generated in the adb debuglog/logcat either when I press either hotkey.
According to http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/emulator.html these are the correct hotkeys to switch the emulator's screen orientation. I tried it with my app, and with the messaging app. The hotkey has no affect in any case. I'm running Fedora 12, Gnome. I checked my Keyboard Shortcuts in the System -> Preferences menu, nothing's attached to either hotkey.

Specifically in the connect bot app. I'm trying to SSH into a machine and use nano to do some simple editing. The key to save a file in nano is Ctrl+O, but I cannot figure out how to send this. I searched and found that some apps use the search or menu buttons for ctrl but this didn't work for me. How can I send Ctrl in connect bot?

Sorry if there are is an answer for this already. Searching for "keyboard" and "tab" is a pretty big waste of time to sift through.
Is there a soft keyboard out that has alt, ctrl, tab, shift, and a pipe?
It would also need multitouch and/or some sticky keys option to be able to utilize them. (like being able to press ctrl+k)
I don't care about swype or any "super awesome" keyboard with gigantic keys. I'll deal with typos if it means I can keep my evo and still get around in shells remotely without having to carry around a bluetooth keyboard (whenever cyanogen or somebody gets BT HID working).
I don't care about auto correction. I don't care about text prediction. I don't care if you can put a Hello Kitty theme on it. I don't even care if you're forced to use a Hello Kitty them to use it. I just want a keyboard that works as a full keyboard.

Is there a way to do a Ctrl-key combo w/ the physical keyboard on the Driod? (ie: Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D, etc. in a terminal window)

I get an OutOfMemoryError every time i change the screen orientation and I am having a hard time finding the mistake...
The Activitie's view consists of an ImageView, two Buttons and a Spinner. I don't have static variables and can't imagine where i could leak a context.
Most of the times, the exception is thrown at setContentView (R.layout.upload); sometimes it goes fine until imgUpload.setImageURI(imageURI);
The images i am displaying are form the G1's camera, so about 500kb and 2048x1536pixels
Here is some code:

I am working on a game for android at the moment, and was wondering how i would change the screen depending on orientation.
So if the user turned the phone horizontally then the app would be viewed horizontally if you know what i mean
Also how would i make a timer, so if a button were pressed, how would i say stop for 2 seconds and then go to link?

I have a widget set up and it displays properly in both portrait and landscape when added to each. But when I change orientation it has the problem "Problem Loading Widget". I delete this, re-add the widget, and it displays correctly. Thus, my widget can support both portrait and landscape but it doesn't survive an orientation switch. What am I missing? Do I need to redraw the widget when orientation is changed? Doesn't it do this automatically? Do I need to call onUpdate() somehow?

I finally got to the point where I was ready to deploy my app to my G1 and test it out and the first thing I noticed was that when I change my phone to landscape view my main activity restarts and resets all of my variables to their default settings. How can I avoid this?

I have a widget , thats working just fine in a particular orientation, but the moment i change the orientation to landscape/portrait, the widget is not able to launch. I have one layout and one layout-land folder in res directory.The problem is that the widget created in landscape mode is not opening in portrait mode and vice-versa.

I have Activity with ListView inside it and in the onCreate method of the Activity I have code for populating the Data of the ListView this Data is a server based and so populating includes calling Network URLs. I have the ArrayAdapter of the ListView in the Same Activity Class.
Now the Issue I'am facing is that, in Rest all scenarios my Activity is behaving in a proper way but when the Orientation [ Portrait to Landscaped or other way round] is taking place the Data is Getting lost and Newer Data calls are Required to Populate the Same Old Data now this is something that is not intended out the code how should I deal with it.

Just started testing my games in 1.6 and the first thing I notice is that on the landscape ones, the dpad up/down/left/right orientation doesn't switch 90 degrees like it did on all emulators before.
The device trackball/dpad will still change with orientation (right becomes up on landscape, etc..), right?

is it possible to manually rotate the screen or fix the current screen orientation (with a key/button)? because it really annoys me having taken portrait pictures that cannot be viewed (with the media gallery application) in a portrait fashion on the milestone. this is because it always rotates the portrait picture back to landscape when rotating the milestone from landscape to portrait. right now there is no way of properly viewing portrait pictures on the milestone other than tilting your head (holding the milestone landscape and tilting your head along).this cannot be the way it was intended to be, right? or do I have to get a different viewing software which allows you to choose screen orientation? is there such an app?

I would a Tab (in a TabHost) to have a Landscape orientation while the activity with the TabHost is in Portrait orientation, is that possible (if so how)? I tried setting the orientation of the Activity displayed in the tab in the Manifest but it didn't work.

I was wondering if there was any java code that will allow you to make sure each window in your app stays in portrait despite the user flipping the phone to landscape. I already tried inserting android:screenOrientation="portrait" into both my android manifest and into every single XML file I had but unfortunately only some stayed in portrait and others still flipped to landscape.

I notice when using the emulator that when the screen is flipped, I get a following logcat message:
INFO/WindowManager(589): onOrientationChanged, rotation changed to 1
How can I catch this in the code? I want to know whenever the orientation changes. I assume I have to set a listener, but I can't find an example anywhere.

I am making an Android app which is currently coming along nicely - I've hit upon a couple of stumbling blocks.
1) How do I stop the screen from going dim/off and the phone locking while the application is running?
2) Can I force the phone to enter landscape mode on running my application?

I have a series of live wallpapers out and one major sticking point I have with a certain set is that when devices switch to Landscape, the wallpaper, which in most cases is an image designed to fit the screen in portrait mode, appears off center. What is the conventional way to detect the shift from portrait to landscape?

In the following sequence of events:
1. Start a new thread (as a result of a button click - or similar).
2. User changes the screen orientation (causing the Activity that started the thread to be destroyed).
3. Thread finishes, and wants to do some dialog (or any UI) work. However, doing a showDialog, dismissDialog, ... will crash, as the thread it still referring to the old Activity.
This can be solved by updating the data in the thread to refer to the new Activity upon a screen orientation change.
However, couldn't the Android framework just forward any requests from a destroyed activity, to the newly created Activity, saving us developers of handling it ourselves?

I know on screen orientation changes activity restarted, but suppose i don't want to restart the activity then what should I do? I had tried it by adding in manifest.xml. android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"
and override public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) { super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig); }
But still activity restarted each time when I change screen orientation.

I snap a photo, and it gets placed onto an ImageView. When the user sees the page where the Image View is, and I turn the phone sideways where the orientation is horizontal, the app immediately returns to the app's main screen.

We currently use Activity.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_x) to set (and 'freeze') the orientation of our app. Froyo now supports two landscape modes tho and we'd like to allow our users to orient the app to 'landscape right' ... ie, the orientation obtained by turning a device naturally oriented to Portrait 90 degrees clock wise.
