Need Help in Changing Screen Orientation in Android

Question

I want to change the screen orientation from portrait to landscape and vice versa when the user rotates his Android mobile phone clockwise/anticlockwise. Can anyone help me how

Answer 1

Just add to your AndroidManifest in activity

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"

Then you should override this method in your activity

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
  super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
  setContentView(R.layout.myLayout);
}

And use search, this question is very popular.
