PhoneGap/Android - Locking orientation to portrait
android, cordova, orientation, screen
Solution
If you're using Cordova 3.4.1 `<preference name="orientation" value="portrait" />` should work.
Also, don't forget to add: `android:configChanges="orientation"` in the activity tag.
Else, you can try using this plugin: https://github.com/cogitor/PhoneGap-OrientationLock
Problem
I have tried every method to lock the screen to portrait orientation but they simply do not work after testing the app via Adobe PhoneGap Build. Firstly, I have modified the MainActivity.java file to include at onCreate ``` setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); ``` Secondly, I have modified the config.xml file to include ``` <preference name="orientation" value="portrait" /> ``` Thirdly, I have modified the Manifest file to include ``` android:screenOrientation="portrait" ``` None of the above are working.
