I have an camera activity in my app, where user can make a photo. For some reasons it’s fixed to landscape mode(by the screenOrientation in manifest). All works perfectly but I need to know – what screen mode on picture? User can rotate device and try to make a photo in portrait mode.
I’ve tried to use getRotation method but it returnes only 0 degrees, cause i’m set to portrait screenOrientation.
I want to ask – is there some ways to solve this problem?
Thanks for any help!
Use the orientation sensor, ain’t as difficult as you might think.
