Android starting activity (from library project) in landscape even when specified...
In my app I have the following sequence of activities:
- Activity1 starts Activity 2 with
startActivityForResult
- at some point Activity 2 finishes successfully
- in Activity1's in
onActivityResultActivity2 is started withstartActivityForResult
All activities are specified in the manifest with android:screenOrientation="portrait".
The problem is that when the phone is in landscape when Activity2 starts LibActivity it is initially started in landscape and immediately destroyed and created in portrait. In contrast, when Activity1 start Activity2, Activity2 is created in portrait.
The only specific thing about LibActivity is that it is coming from a library project.
Any idea why this is happening and/or how to avoid it?
Here is how the activity is declared in the manifest:
<activity
android:exported="false"
android:name="com.test.LibActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
</activity>
The library is simply library project created by me. It is included in gradle like:
implementation project(path: ':my_lib')

I found that the problem was caused by
this.overridePendingTransition(0, 0);
which I was using when starting the activities in order to avoid transition effects.
Obviously it interferes with the orientation locking to portrait.
