[android-porting] How do you set the default display orientation in Android 7 aosp?

[Nirmit Shah]

There used to be "ro.sf.hwrotation
<http://gpfw-aerial/source/s?path=ro.sf.hwrotation&project=pioneer>"
property in the previous android to set the default natural display
orientation. Can anyone tell me the correct way to set the default display
orientation, currently it defaults to portrait but I want it to be in
landscape mode? Is there a support doc for this?

Hi,

I have set the default orientation to LANDSCAPE in my Android AOSP 7, by
changing in file -
"packages/apps/Launcher3/src/com/android/launcher3/Launcher.java" as below:

setRequestedOrientation(
- ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_NOSENSOR);
+ ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

Try this, may this will help you. It changes my display orientation to
landscape mode, the only thing is lock screen will not rotate.

Regards,
