Activity not changing from portrait mode to landscape mode in android

I am trying to change orientation from portrait to landscape for an Android activity. But it is not changing to landscape.

I mention the activity in the manifest file as follows:

<activity
    android:name=".OpenFileActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"
    android:exported="false">

But I am unsuccessful. Can any one tell me why that is?

please check in your phone's settings that screen rotation is enabled.

You should set the android:screenOrientation="landscape"
