To get an Android application to display in landscape mode only (to lock it
in landscape mode), add this line to your Activity definition in the
AndroidManifest.xml file:
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
For example, I’m writing an Android football game right now, and this is
the definition for my main activity in the Android manifest file:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
*android:screenOrientation="landscape"*
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
