Rotating phone quickly 180 degrees, camera preview turns upside down

Question

I have a custom camera application. When I rotating the phone by 90, camera preview works fine. But when I rotate phone quickly 180 degree, camera preview turns upside down. Is there any solution...

Here is my code below:

public class CustomCameraActivity extends Activity implements
    SurfaceHolder.Callback {

Camera camera;
SurfaceView surfaceView;
SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder;
boolean previewing = false;
LayoutInflater controlInflater = null;
private Sensor mOrientaion1;
int cameraId = 0;
public final String TAG = "CustomCamera";
private SensorManager sensorManager;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
            WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    context = this;

    sensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
    mOrientaion1 = sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION);

    // setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

    imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgError);

    getWindow().setFormat(PixelFormat.UNKNOWN);
    surfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.camerapreview);
    surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
    surfaceHolder.addCallback(this);
    surfaceHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);

    controlInflater = LayoutInflater.from(getBaseContext());
    View viewControl = controlInflater.inflate(R.layout.custom, null);
    LayoutParams layoutParamsControl = new LayoutParams(
            LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);

    Button btn1 = (Button) viewControl.findViewById(R.id.Button01);
    Button btn2 = (Button) viewControl.findViewById(R.id.Button02);

    btn1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            // Toast.makeText(context, "1111111111111111111111111",
            // Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            camera.takePicture(null, null, mPicture);

            Constant.rotationValueForCamera = Constant.rotationValue;
        }
    });

    btn2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            // Toast.makeText(context, "22222222222222222222222222",
            // Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            Log.e("0 imagePickerStatus", Constant.imagePickerStatus + "");

            Constant.imagePickerStatus = 0;

            Log.e("0 imagePickerStatus", Constant.imagePickerStatus + "");

            finish();
        }
    });

    this.addContentView(viewControl, layoutParamsControl);

    int ot = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;

    if (Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE == ot) {
        imageView.setVisibility(View.GONE);

Answer 1

You can use OrientationEventListener to trigger recalculation of camera rotation.

Add to your activity:

private OrientationEventListener orientationListener = null;

to onCreate():

orientationListener = new OrientationEventListener(this) {
    public void onOrientationChanged(int orientation) {
        setCameraDisplayOrientation(CustomCameraActivity.this, cameraId, camera);
    }
};

to surfaceCreated():

orientationListener.enable();

to surfaceDestroyed():

orientationListener.disable();

Now, it almost works. To make setCameraDisplayOrientation() more robust,

1. add check for camera != null
2. only call camera.setDisplayOrientation(result) (or perform any heavy-lifting) if result changed since last time the function was called.

Answer 2

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

Add this line in your Android Manifest file after declaring all activities in activity tags *

like:

<activity android:name="com.geeklabs.ActivityMain"
            android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize" />

May be it will helps you.
