LG G5 (and other Android 8 devices) crash if Orientations=Portrait

[Matti_Tihverainen]

Hello! I thought this one was already fixed, but if Orientations is defined as “Portrait” in .unoproj, LG G5 and probably other Android 8 devices (Samsung Galaxy S8 for example) crash on startup. This issue is reported at least here:

Problem with Android API 27 and later

With Android API 27 and later, you can no longer specify screen orientation in the manifest file: android:screenOrientation="portrait" if you have a style setting of: <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item> Instead, you need to request the desired screen orientation in the onCreate method of the main activity: if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.O) { setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); } Otherwise, your …

This issue can be fixed by removing the orientation restriction or by adding WindowIsTranslucent=false to the .unoproj in the Android structure.

Its solved. You need to have the last uno and fuselibs version and specify the last SDK in your .unoproj

"SDK": {
      "BuildToolsVersion": "29.0.2",
      "CompileVersion": 29,
      "MinVersion": 17,
      "TargetVersion": 29
    },

Ok, thank you! Is 29.0.2 the current preferred version?
