Can you please fix the screen orientation bug for android in 4.8.4?

The bug I’m talking about is that your game will crash on launch if you hold your phone in portrait. This is because in manifest file generated by 4.8.3 has android:configChanges=“orientation|keyboardHidden” instead of android:configChanges=“screenSize|orientation|keyboardHidden”.

It will only crash if you also put your minimum api level below 13.

I realize that it is fixed in 4.9, but I can’t use that because of a bug with play games services.

Thanks.

Hey Pesk92,

There aren’t any other hotfixes scheduled for 4.8. Any additional bug fixes will be implemented in 4.9 and beyond therefore, you will need to wait for the Play Games Services issue to be resolved in 4.9 once it comes out of preview.

If you have any further questions, please let us know. Have a great day!

Hey ,

Thanks for the reply. I fixed it by getting the code from github and compiling the unrealbuildtool, but it will be great when it is working by deafault in 4.9. Looking forward to upgrading when play games services is working.

Have a nice day :slight_smile:
