Build.VERSION:Various version strings.
android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT:The user-visible SDK version of the framework; its possible values are defined in Build.VERSION_CODES
.
Build.VERSION_CODES:Enumeration of the currently known SDK version codes. These are the values that can be found in SDK
. Version numbers increment monotonically with each official platform release.
android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.FROYO:June 2010: Android 2.2
The REVERSE_LANDSCAPE and REVERSE_PORTRAIT appear after android 2.3,so we can not use them on android 2.2 and former devices.
private void disableRotation() { final int orientation = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation; final int rotation = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getOrientation(); // Copied from Android docs, since we don't have these values in Froyo 2.2 int SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE = 8; int SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT = 9; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT <= Build.VERSION_CODES.FROYO) { SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE; SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT; } if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_0 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_90) { if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){ setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); } else if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){ setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE); } } else if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_180 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_270) { if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){ setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT); } else if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){ setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE); } } }
enable the rotation:
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_UNSPECIFIED);
About the rotation and orientation,on some devices,the Surface.ROTATION_0 corresponds to ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE,but others,may ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT.So we have to so some work to judge it.
However,for some reason ROTATION_90 corresponds to SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT on the Xoom if you use the above method.So another method appears:
private void disableRotation() { final int orientation = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation; final int rotation = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getOrientation(); // Copied from Android docs, since we don't have these values in Froyo 2.2 int SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE = 8; int SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT = 9; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT <= Build.VERSION_CODES.FROYO) { SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE; SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT; } if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT) { if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_0|| rotation == Surface.ROTATION_270) // 0 for phone, 270 for tablet { setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); } else { setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT); } } else { if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_90|| rotation == Surface.ROTATION_0) // 90 for phone, 0 for tablet { setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE); } else { setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE); } } // if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_0 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_90) // { // if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){ // setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); // } // else if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){ // setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE); // } // } // else if (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_180 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_270) // { // if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){ // setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT); // } // else if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){ // setRequestedOrientation(SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE); // } // } }
i'm not sure the note "//0 for phone, 270 for tablet" and "// 90 for phone, 0 for tablet" are right on any device,but at least it works well in my device.so I use the latter one.
When you want to disable/enable the autorotation of the device ,you have to write the settings.
