Android 3.0 sdk are designed for large screens only (i.e. tablets). You can get more idea about this on official documentation of this version Android 3.0 After this The next version of Android 4.0 Ice-cream Sandwich was designed and optimized for both portrait and landscape mode.

You can set orientation to portrait in your manifest file to fix orientation for your app and you can change orientation of your emulator by pressing ctrl+F12

Android 3.0 (and all 3.X versions) are only available for tablets, not for phones. Therefore their default orientation is landscape, not portrait. Select a tablet device such as the 10.1" WXGA (Tablet) (1280x800; mdpi) and it will work as expected.
