Hi, I'm experimenting with newly bought android tablet and found out that android API it provides does not comply with android API documentation/specification. Specifically Display.getRotation() and Accelerometer readings returns values that contradicts each other.
For example: running application that has android:screenOrientation="landscape" and quering Display.getRotation() returns Surface.ROTATION_0 which means this tablet is "landscape-default device" as described in http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/09/one-screen-turn-deserves-another.html Still, when running the same application and holding device in landscape orientation in front of me, I get accelerometer reading that says something around: X=10, Y=0 which is clearly wrong because accelerometer coordinate system should be aligned with device default orientation (landscape in this case). According to blogpost mentioned above - when I keep device in its default-orientation (which is landscape in this case) I should get accelerometer reading X=0, Y=10. Can anybody suggest what's wrong here? Either my device is broken or its software has a bug or I misunderstood the API semantics (?) thanks Marcin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
