    I use two images (one for portrait and one for landscape). In onCreate(...) of my Activity I use the following to set the correct image…

    View view = getWindow().getDecorView();
int orientation = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;
if (Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE == orientation) {
    view.setBackgroundResource (R.drawable.bground_land);
} else {
    view.setBackgroundResource (R.drawable.bground_port);
}

    bground_land.jpg and bground_port.jpg are the images in my project’s /res/drawable directory.
