android - Force portrait mode in camera

Question

I am invoking a camera using an intent and clicking a picture. Presently I am on emulator and would like to force camera to click the pictures in portrait mode(need to capture a video of app working,so orientation change would look bad) but the camera screen appears landscape and all the further activities which I invoke in onActivityResult().

After clicking the picture the Activity layout comes out in landscape mode like this:

while all my previous activity have displayed correctly in portrait orientation. I tried adding

android:screenOrientation="portrait" 
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"

to the activity shown above but to no avail.Though when i hit home and upon resume it displays correctly in portrait.

So how do I force portrait mode??

Answer 1

None of the solutions work.There is nothing wrong with the layouts either.I got it to work by running on a higher version(API10 to API15). Weird!!
