“IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen activities can request orientation

Question

i'm tyring to update Glide library from 3.8.0 to 4.5.0 but i have this problem with recyclerview when i add com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.5.0 to my Build.Gradle file i get this error in recyclerview compile line .

All com.android.support libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 27.0.2, 26.1.0. Examples include com.android.support:support-compat:27.0.2 and com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:26.1.0.

i decided to update targetSdkVersion from 26 to 27 and it's works but when i run my app in Device with android 26 i have this error and app crashes

 java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen activities can request orientation
                                                      at com.android.server.am.ActivityRecord.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityRecord.java:2189)

After some research found a solution, SDK should be 26,But if I do this I will get back to the same problem again.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion '26.0.2'
    dexOptions {
        preDexLibraries = false

I had a similar problem. I see two options. First one is control devices with Android O (this android has the error "Only fullscreen activities can request orientation") and verify if you can change their behivor, or find a glide version that use the same support library version. If your problem on android O is with AdMob you can check this link

It was issue with Android version 8.0 (API 26)

I solved by using below approach add this code in manifest

  <activity
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
            tools:replace="android:theme"
            />

and in res/styles add below code

 <!-- Base application theme. -->
    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
        <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
        <item name="alertDialogTheme">@style/StyledDialog1</item>
        <item name="drawerArrowStyle">@style/DrawerArrowStyle</item>
        <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
        <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/primary1</item>
        <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/primary1</item>
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/accent1</item>
        <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@color/fbutton_color_pomegranate</item>

        <item name="android:textColor">@color/primary_text</item>
        <item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/secondary_text</item>
        <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/primary_text</item>

        <item name="android:popupMenuStyle">@style/popupMenuStyle</item>
    </style>

note: in res/style apptheme remove items if you dont use any

let me know if it helped you guys ! happy coding
