Android :: Way To Force Screen Orientation To Landscape Right As Of Froyo?
Sep 24, 2010We 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Screen Orientation Landscape Back To Portrait Not Working
Mar 20, 2010I've racked my brain for hours over this issue. I have created a main.xml and designed one for the res/layout-land (landscape) format and another one for portrait in res/layout. When I rotate the emulator (ctrl-F11), my app rotates properly to landscape using the correct main.xml, but a subsequent rotation back to portrait just keeps the landscape mail.xml. This was done in a 2.0 AVD.. Out of desperation I downloaded the new Sample Code for Multiple Resolutions and had to create a new 2.1 AVD, to my surprise rotation with this app works correctly as expected. So I then decided to try my app on the 2.1 AVD and it works perfectly. So, is this a Bug in a 2.0 AVD or is there something special I need to be doing for < 2.1 SDK versions?

Feb 19, 2010I searched for this but couldn't find a solution. Is there anyway to get the home screen and subsequent side screens to go into landscape mode? I've seen some other Android Phones/Tablets doing this and would like to be able to do so. Or does anyone know if this will be an option in the 2.1 update? I heard that the Droid used to do this, and then some update messed it up, but then saw it going into landscape mode on the video they posted today of the Droid running 2.1.

Jun 17, 2010Apparently, since Froyo it's possible to display app in clockwise landscape orientation (e.g. as demoed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4YazuITS1o). However, I can't find anything related in the SDK. How can I display my app this way?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Hierarchy Viewer In Landscape Orientation
Jul 13, 2009Is there a trick to getting the Hierarchy Viewer to work in landscape orientation, or is it completely broken? In Pixel Perfect View it shows my screen sideways (i.e. in portrait aspect ratio), but when I click on the views in the explorer area it outlines the wrong areas of the screen. It looks like the outlining assumes the display is in landscape orientation, so it outlines where the views would be if it were oriented correctly. Obviously fixing the display would be the best solution, but barring that I'm OK tilting my head if only the outlining would agree with the display. Anyone know a way around this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Portrait Vs Landscape Orientation Using Sensor
Dec 18, 2009I'm trying to detect landscape vs portrait orientation with the following:
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) { float pitch = event.values[2];
if (pitch <= 45 && pitch >= -45) { // portrait }
else if (pitch < -45) { // landscape }
else if (pitch > 45) { // landscape } }
Anyone have something more robust? It works pretty well, except if the phone is in a landscape orientation and the user starts to 'flatten' it out, starts thinking it's in the portrait orientation again.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Startup Emulator With Landscape Orientation Instead Of Portrait
Jun 19, 2010As u know, since android 1.6, there are not dirs on dirs like HVGA-L. Instead, there is only one dir like HVGA. That is, HVGA-P and HVGA-L are merged into one dir, HVGA. So, only HVGA can be selected and by default the emulator is started with portrait mode. Though I can press CTRL+F11/F12 to switch it to landscape mode, I do not like it. What I want is to start the emulator with default mode of landscape. Would anyone know how to do it?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Configuration Changed / Orientation From Portrait To Landscape?
Nov 10, 2010While working on orientation change I have found that the onConfigurationChanged is not getting called when changing the orientation from portrait to landscape.But when I am changing from landscape to portrait the method is getting called. Is it the correct behavior because the onConfigurationChanged should by called whenever we are changing the orientation. (android:configChanges="orientation")? I have also found one strange behavior or error, When we are changing from portrait to landscape orientation the string value is displayed correctly(automatically by android system) but when in am changing the orientation from landscape to portrait the same string is displayed(i.e the string in landscape mode).The expected behavior is the string id specified in the portrait mode should be displayed.Is it an platform bug or something wrong in my code/programming.

Dec 18, 2009I just got my eris yesterday (posting with it now), and I am finding typing in landscape quite uncomfortable while headphones are plugged in (i listen to a lot of music).

As in the eris's physical buttons would be to the left while typing instead of the right.

Feb 10, 2010I just got my Droid Eris. It was working fine to go back and forth between landscape and upright, until I calibrated the G-sensor. Now I'm not sure what's going on. I'm not sure if I've done the calibration correctly (I assume you just sit it upright on a flat surface?) or what. It will randomly go into landscape mode, but then I can't get it back upright unless I go to the home screen.

Aug 3, 2010I manually installed the Froyo update this morning. According to features' reports this should give me a 270 rotation. However, after choosing Automatic Rotation in settings, I found that anything with primarily text input defaults to and locks in landscape orientation. This includes google search, email, gtalk and text messaging. I prefer reading my email in portrait, so I can see more than 3 of the emails at a time. And since my text input is calibrated in portrait, landscape is just annoying me.

Android :: Android VideoView Landscape Orientation
Aug 25, 2010I am pretty new to Android and mobile development in general. I am creating an Android application that plays a video using VideoView after a button is selected. The problem is when you rotate the phone the video restarts. I know its because the activity is destroyed and recreated when it is rotated. So I just locked the video player in landscape view. But by default you have to tilt the phone to the left (right side up) to be able to see it correctly. The other way just shows the video upside down. Is there a way to show the video correctly if the user tilts the phone to the right (left side up)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Android Landscape Right / Left Orientation
Oct 8, 2010I have an application, that looks good in landscape orientation only and i want to support both landscape-left and landscape-right orientation. If use setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE), my application gets restricted to landscape-right orientation (home key is in the right direction) and does not go to landscape-left orientation on device rotation. If use setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR), application goes to both landscape-left and landscape-right orientation but the problem is that it goes to portrait orientation also, on device rotation. Can somebody please highlight, how can both landscape-right and landscape-left orientations be supported without moving to portrait orientation? Are there are API to set the orientation to both landscape-left and landscape right orientation or some mechanism to prevent application from moving to portrait orientation when setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR) is used.
