My app follows the screen orientation by default, but I want to add a setting to force a specific orientation. I have been able to do this using the following code in the Application class
public void applyOrientationMode() {
final OrientationEnum orientation = PreferencesHelper.getOrientationMode();
if (this.orientationLifecycleCallback != null) {
try {
unregisterActivityLifecycleCallbacks(this.orientationLifecycleCallback);
} catch (final Throwable t) {
ExceptionHelper.fullLogging(t, TAG);
}
}
if (orientation != null && orientation != OrientationEnum.UNLOCKED) {
this.orientationLifecycleCallback = new Application.ActivityLifecycleCallbacks() {
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Activity activity, Bundle bundle) {
switch (orientation) {
case PORTRAIT:
activity.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
break;
case LANDSCAPE:
activity.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
break;
}
}
@Override
public void onActivityStarted(Activity activity) {
}
@Override
public void onActivityResumed(Activity activity) {
}
@Override
public void onActivityPaused(Activity activity) {
}
@Override
public void onActivityStopped(Activity activity) {
}
@Override
public void onActivitySaveInstanceState(Activity activity, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onActivityDestroyed(Activity activity) {
}
};
registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(this.orientationLifecycleCallback);
}
}
This code is called from the application.onCreate() It works fine, however if I set the settings to portrait mode and open a new activity with the screen in landscape I can see th screen created in landscape mode before being recreated in the portrait mode. How I can prevent this?
Please don't use any manifest orientation solution as this is NOT what I'm trying to do
Thanks
