add screenOrientation tag in your GameActivity in AndroidManifest.xml

 <activity
        android:name=".YourgameActivity"
        android:screenOrientation="landscape" >
 </activity>

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html. Please check the documentation under the heading Handling the Configuration Change Yourself.

<activity android:name=".Activity_name"
      android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize">

Screen size to be added for 3.2 and above.

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
    if(newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){
       //do something
    }
    else if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT) {
       //do something        
    }
}

I assume you have a splash screen and after displaying splash screen navigates to activity called Main. In this case your splash screen should run only once when the app is started. You have to call finish() before navigating to next activity. Splash Screen gets destroyed and you navigate to next screen.
