Hi,
I have had several complaints from people with G1 and MyTouch/G2
devices who say my application does not work correctly. The problem
stems from the following code which gets the orientation of the phone:
// Get Screen Orientation
Display display = ((WindowManager) getSystemService
(WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();
int screenOrientation = display.getOrientation();
I manually rotate the interface if the phone is in portrait
(screenOrientation = 0) or landscape (screenOrientation = 1).
On my HTC Hero the code works fine and the correct orientation is
determined, however on G1 and MyTouch devices it apparently never
returns the correct orientation. As I do not have either of those
phones to test this problem I am guessing they may return the opposite
values to the HTC Hero?
Can anyone possibly explain this problem or let me know how to
determine the screen orientation on ALL devices?
You can try getConfiguration().orientation, which will be one of a
series of constants on the Configuration class.
