I’m trying to force the “portrait” mode for my application because my application is absolutely not designed for the “landscape” mode.
After reading some forums, I added these lines in my manifest file:
<application
android:debuggable="true"
android:icon="@drawable/icon"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
But it doesn’t work on my device (HTC Desire). It switches from “portrait” lo “landscape”, ignoring the lines from the manifest file.
After more forums reading, I tried to add this in my manifest file:
<application
android:debuggable="true"
android:icon="@drawable/icon"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:configChanges="orientation"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
and this function in my activity class:
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig)
{
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
}
But again, no luck.
