[android-developers] How to lock current orientation at runtime?

Hi,

I'm trying to lock my activity to the current orientation to prevent
an orientation change from restarting my activity while I'm waiting
for a http response.

So I'm trying to use this:

setRequestedOrientation(getResources().getConfiguration().orientation);

And it works fine for portrait (orientation == 1), but when the device
is in landscape it's getting a value of 2 which ==

ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_USER

And this doesn't lock the screen.

Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting this instead of LANDSCAPE?
Any suggestions for a better way to lock the current orientation?

Thanks!
