Hey Dianne,
Thanks for your reply, below is a sample of the code that I am using:
@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
Log.i(TAG, "WM getOrientation: "
+ ((WindowManager) getSystemService
(WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay().getOrientation());
Log.i(TAG, "getResources: " + getResources().getConfiguration
().orientation);
Log.i(TAG, "newConfig: " + newConfig.orientation);
}
As well as adding the following to the Android XML file so that I can
handle rotation events locally:
<activity android:name=".SinEgen"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">
The following is the output after two successive rotations:
04-29 00:28:08.588: INFO/sinEgen(883): WM getOrientation: 1
04-29 00:28:08.588: INFO/sinEgen(883): getResources: 2

04-29 00:28:10.639: INFO/sinEgen(883): newConfig: 2
As you can see none of the methods used are detecting any orientation
change at all!
However if I remove:
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
>From my activities onCreate() function they all successfully detect
orientation changes:

I must admit I am at a loss!
