layout-land xml files does not work with onConfigurationChanged call back

Question

I have different layouts for portrait and landscape mode and I also need to override the onConfigurationChanged() callback. But problem is when I change the phone

Answer 1

i also need to override the onConfigurationChanged() callback

Why?

but problem is when i change the phone orientation to landscape my landscape layout does not work.

I am going to guess that "does not work" means that the landscape layout does not take effect. This is expected behavior given what you have done.

To resolve this problem, ideally you delete android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation". Putting in that attribute should be done as a last resort, and typically for activities that do not have separate portrait versus landscape layout files.
