How to disable rotating to landscape mode? [duplicate]

Question

I tried this. Could not find configChanges in manifest file. Anyways, how to disable rotation of screen(to landscape mode)?

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     package="com.joericharduz.akita"     android:versionCode="1"     android:versionName="1.0" >      <uses-sdk         android:minSdkVersion="8"         android:targetSdkVersion="17" />      <application         android:allowBackup="true"         android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"         android:label="@string/app_name"         android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >         <activity             android:name="com.joericharduz.akita.MainActivity"             android:label="@string/app_name" >             <intent-filter>                 <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />                  <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />             </intent-filter>         </activity>     </application>  </manifest> 

Answer 1

Just as kalyanpvs has said, the configChanges are under activity:

<application     android:allowBackup="true"     android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"     android:label="@string/app_name"      android:theme="@style/AppTheme">     <activity         android:name="com.neundorfer.microraphandheld.v1.ParentActivity"         android:label="@string/app_name"          android:screenOrientation="portrait"> 

Answer 2

Just add android:screenOrientation="portrait" to your Manifest. Easiest way to do it (inside your Activity tags).
