I have an app which displays a large amount of text for the user to read. I've found that when reading while lying down, I get annoyed that the screen rotates even though my head and the screen are aligned. I do not want to set this to be permanently in portrait mode, so I think this would preclude an approach of setting the android...
Hello, I have one UIViewController which manage a portrait view and some application logic. However, I need to setup a different view for the landscape orientation.

I've looked all over the net trying to figure out how to get the bounds based on orientation. The notifications are working fine but I'm getting the bounds of the view via: CGRect cgRect = self.view.bounds; which returns {0, 0}, {320, 460} which is correct but when the device is rotated it returns the same CGRect, where I was expectin...

I'm writing some acceptance tests for an application using the ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2 class. I want to cause an orientation change from within the test to ensure that a number of things happen. Among these things are ensuring that Activity state is preserved, but also I'd like to ensure that the appropriate layout for the orien...
I've successfully implemented onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() for my main activity to save and restore certain critical components across screen orientation changes. But it seems, my custom views are being re-created from scratch when the orientation changes. This makes sense, although in my case it's inconvenient because the custom...
I am pretty new to Android and mobile development in general. I am creating an Android application that plays a video using VideoView after a button is selected. The problem is when you rotate the phone the video restarts. I know its because the activity is destroyed and recreated when it is rotated. So I just locked the video player in ...
I am trying to display an image from a URL, which may be larger than the screen dimensions. I have it kind of working, but I would like it to scale to fit the screen, and I also have problems when the screen orientation changes.

My main activity has some code that makes some database changes that should not be interrupted. I'm doing the heavy lifting in another thread, and using a progress dialog which I set as non-cancellable. However, I noticed that if I rotate my phone it restarts the activity which is REALLY bad for the process that was running, and I get a ...
