  • @AndroidDev Sorry, but the question got edited 2 hours **after** I posted my comment (Maverick did not stated "not emulator" but Chris Stratton did)... Watch the history before going on flames. – shkschneider Aug 03 '15 at 08:03

I think this should work. To change the screen orientation to lanscape :

service call window 18 i32 1

and to change it to portrait :

service call window 18 i32 0.

  • @Maverick Sorry about that... I just found [another post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11184503/android-emulator-orientation-change-through-emulator-console-or-adb) that could maybe help you ? If not, do you really have to use ADB ? [Genymotion](http://www.genymotion.com/) is a really great emulator compared to standard emulator... – MathieuMaree Apr 23 '14 at 12:58

I've found the solution:

adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/system --bind name:s:user_rotation --bind value:i:1
  • 1 at the end means that the device rotation will be set to "landscape".
  • 0 - "portrait".
  • 2 - "reversed portrait".
  • 3 - "other landscape".
