SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT is correct?

Well I'm trying to add a lock orientation button, but when I call

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT); 

the screen goes to normal portrait. What am I doing wrong?

public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {      x = event.values[0];     y = event.values[1];     z = event.values[2];      orientation.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {         public void onClick(View v) {             // TODO Auto-generated method stub             if (x > 5){                 setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);             } else if (x < -5){                 setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE);             } else if (y > 5){                 setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);             } else if (y < -5){                 setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT);             }         }     }); }

Well I solved it changing

android:targetSdkVersion="15" 

to this

android:targetSdkVersion="11" 

in the manifest, I don't really think that this was the problem, but now its working. Just wanted to post it in case anyone have the issue.

Due to the bounty requesting an update:

to lock it:

int orientation;  public void lockOrientation(){      orientation = getRequestedOrientation();//if it is inside the activity class. If not add a reference to your activity class     Button lock = new Button(R.id.bLock);     lock.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {         @Override         public void onClick(View v) {             int rotation = ((WindowManager) getSystemService(//if it is inside the activity class. If not add a reference to your activity class                     Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay().getRotation();              switch (rotation) {                 case Surface.ROTATION_0:                     orientation = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT;                     break;                 case Surface.ROTATION_90:                     orientation = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE;                     break;                 case Surface.ROTATION_180:                     orientation = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_PORTRAIT;                     break;                 default:                     orientation = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_REVERSE_LANDSCAPE;                     break;             }              setRequestedOrientation(orientation);//if it is inside the activity class. If not add a reference to your activity class         }     }); } 

to unlock it:

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_UNSPECIFIED);//if it is inside the activity class. If not add a reference to your activity class
