How does one detect orientation of an Android device?

To get orientation, I have tried the below codes. But I don't get the desired output.

int rotation = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRotation();

and

Display display = ((WindowManager)this.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();
int rotation = display.getRotation();

I have tried this both of code and rotate the device every angle but always get rotation value 0.

Then I have tried this below code

int rotation = this.getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;

But now I am always getting rotation value 1. How I will get different value of rotation for Natural orientation, Landscape left, Upside down, Landscape right?

You can use getRequestedOrientation() and it will return one of these values.

Hope this helps !
