App change portrait orientation to landscape on motorola xoom

Question

We are developing an app, what is changing the hard coded orientation portrait to landscape on the 2nd launch.

We have screenOrientation="portrait" in all activity definitions in the manifest file.

Any idea how to resolve this? Here is my code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.myproject"
    android:installLocation="auto"
    android:versionCode="13"
    android:versionName="12.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="15" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

    <application
        android:icon="@string/icon"
        android:label="@string/app"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait"
        android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" >
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.mobclix.APPLICATION_ID"
            android:value="XXXX" />

        <activity
            android:name=".SplashActivity"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" />
        <activity
            android:name=".xyactivity"
            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" />
        <activity
            android:name=".xyzActivity"
            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait"
            android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" />
        <activity
            android:name=".abactivity"
            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait"
            android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" />
        <activity
            android:name="com.mobclix.android.sdk.MobclixBrowserActivity"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" />
    </application>

</manifest>

@ArnoldGergoHorvath: Eh, I think Siddharth meant your Java source codes. Without it, we can't see where you went wrong so we may not be able to help you. — ChuongPham, Sep 13 '13 at 16:58

For restricting to only portrait orientation you need to put this code for every activity during declaration in your manifestfile

<activity android:name="MyApp" android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"></activity>
