i set orientation=landscape for my capture activity, which seems to do the right thing most of the time.
every now and then however, the phone ignores it and restarts my activity if the user rotates the phone. which they have to do, because the camera only "works" in landscape. not sure why this would be an intermittent type thing. >Hi, > >Thanks, I got it to work. > >I have one problem though.
