I want my app to set the orientation to portrait on devices that can use the portrait orientation. To do this I use android:screenOrientation in the manifest. But there are some devices which do not support portrait orientation (some google tv's). On phones I want to set the orientation to portrait, but on tv's I'd like to set the orientation unspecified. Is there a way I can check for which orientations are available in the manifest (or maybe which device it's running on) before I set the orientation.
Or could I set the orientation from the activity instead of from the manifest? Thanks! Note: I want to force the orientation to portrait if it's available, and I want to do it before the activity starts, like it does when you set it in the manifest. Also if you just set the orientation to portrait in the manifest and the device does not have a portrait orientation your app will crash. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
