Android (Phonegap) crash on rotate

Android (Phonegap) crash on rotate - android

I googled that an activity element needs android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden" value for PhoneGap to refresh screen dimensions. But then Eclipse pukes that there is an error: error: Error: String types not allowed (at 'configChanges' with value 'orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden').. So what is wrong with my manifest configuration? Here is my whole Android manifest configuration:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Try to invert screenSize and keyboardHidden.
screenSize have been added in SDK version 13. If you try to start your application on Android 3.1 or lower, it can't work because the SDK can't find screenSize value.
By the way, Phonegap starting guide recommends this value for configChanges:
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale"

I cannot figure out why this happens but when I look at your AndroidManifest.xml file, it's mistyped.
Your Activity should be defined within the application tags.
AndroidManifest.xml should be like following.
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.example.test.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>
Could you please fix that problem and then try to relaunch your application?
Hope this may solve your problem.

Problems with AndroidManifest when trying to run PhoneGap APP

), Im trying to run my first PhoneGap APP and I followed the steps on this page:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/html5/articles/getting-started-with-phonegap-in-eclipse-for-android.html
It seems I did all the stuff OK, but when I try to run as Android App on eclipse I get the following error:
[2013-01-21 13:13:02 - com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.internal.project.AndroidManifestHelper] Parser exception for C:\Users\Inaki\workspace\AppPrueba\AndroidManifest.xml: El tipo de elemento "manifest" debe ir seguido de una de estas especificaciones de atributo: ">" o "/>".
[2013-01-21 13:13:02 - AppPrueba] Error in an XML file: aborting build.
It's in Spanish, so translated basically says that "manifest" must be followed by ">" or "/>". I did the manifest modifications specified on the tutorial, I guess since I don't know about XML I must have mess up something. Here is my manifest:

supports-screens should be part of a manifest content and not act as a some kind of manifest attribute.

For me it was due to the Huawei libraries not being updated.
Take a look at here: After updating Gradle to 7.0.2, Element type “manifest” must be followed by either attribute specifications, “>” or “/>” error

PhoneGap orientation change crash even with Manifest changes

I've seen lots of references or similar questions, but all of them teaches me to do this:
Add "android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale" into the
But it's done and on orientation change, the app crashes. I tried to follow every single tip and it doesn't work.

This is the final version of the code, when it's done, I get an error:
Description Resource Path Location Type error: Error: String types not allowed (at 'configChanges' with value 'orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale'). AndroidManifest.xml /G‌uia do Peixe line 34 Android AAPT Problem
But the example on Cordova's documentation points out to this, and no change I make into the string correct the error.
Thank you

That's because your XML is not valid. It should be:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale">
Note, you have the > in the wrong position.

I'm using Phonegap 1.3.0 and jquerymobile.
My test device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 with HC v3.2.
I've read ALMOST every forum with the same issue. It still fails when i rotate the screen.
There's a warning right after the app crashes in debug mode: webcore: Can't get the veiwWidth after the first layout.

In your case the attribute android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden" should go to the first <activity> tag and not the <application> tag.
For the other people having similar issues simply add screenSize to android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" or change the android:minSdkVersion attribute to 12 or lower.
A more detailed explanation of this behavior can be found here: http://groups.google.com/group/phonegap/msg/c771fffc4dd9daaf

Here's my solution
Add "screenSize" to the android:configChanges in each Activity tag (within the AnroidManifest.xml).
Like this:
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden"
It solved my problem.
