Phonegap app crashes when switched orientation even with AndroidManifest changes

Question

Answer 1

In your case the attribute android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden" should go to the first tag and not the tag.

For the other people having similar issues simply add screenSize to android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" or change the android:minSdkVersion attribute to 12 or lower.
