java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen opaque activities can request orientation

Question

I am facing the problem while retrieving the contacts from the contact book in Android 8.0 Oreo java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen opaque activities can reques

Answer 1

I had the same problem, and my solution was to eliminate the line

android:screenOrientation="portrait"

and then add this in the activity:

if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
    setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
}
