Um, if I am reading that right, it is exactly working as intended. With
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) you are
saying to keep the screen in landscape, so the orientation shouldn't
change. In fact you shouldn't see the screen actually rotating, just the
keyboard hidden state changing.
Am I missing something?
