This solution will work for all versions of Android. You can use reflection in Java to make it work for all Android devices:
Basically you should create a reflection wrapper to call the Android 2.2 setDisplayOrientation, instead of calling the specific method.
The method:
protected void setDisplayOrientation(Camera camera, int angle){
Method downPolymorphic;
try
{
downPolymorphic = camera.getClass().getMethod("setDisplayOrientation", new Class[] { int.class });
if (downPolymorphic != null)
downPolymorphic.invoke(camera, new Object[] { angle });
}
catch (Exception e1)
{
}
}
And instead of using camera.setDisplayOrientation(x) use setDisplayOrientation(camera, x) :
if (Integer.parseInt(Build.VERSION.SDK) >= 8)
setDisplayOrientation(mCamera, 90);
else
{
if (getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT)
{
p.set("orientation", "portrait");
p.set("rotation", 90);
}
if (getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE)
{
p.set("orientation", "landscape");
p.set("rotation", 90);
}
}
