Lock screen rotation

Question

I am using

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LOCKED);

to lock my app screen(programmatically), but in some devices if i call this method in landscape it rotate to portrait instead of locking the screen.

Any idea what goes wrong?

Do it in your manifest if it's *always* supposed to be that way. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4675750/lock-screen-orientation-android — ChiefTwoPencils, Dec 24 '14 at 10:53

Use this -

<activity
            android:name="Your activity"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
