Android, get screen width and height?

I am trying to get the width and height of the screen in Android, i have:

DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
stageWidth = displaymetrics.widthPixels;
stageHeight = displaymetrics.heightPixels;

The width is 1280 but its coming back with 752.

Any ideas?

Rotate your screen and see.I think you will get your correct screen size.

The above code worked with me and should work with you.

Use this method on the display object (from the docs):

void getSize(Point outSize) - Returns the raw size of the display, in pixels.

Try this instead:

Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay(); 
stageWidth = display.getWidth();
stageHeight = display.getHeigth();

Is that the same width? Are you sure the width is 1280 and not 752? What device are you testing it on and what height are you getting?
