AIR bug, landscape doesn't work

First: In my FlashCS6 I'm exporting for AIR 3.2 and I'm testing on my Samsung Galaxy S3.

Now about the bug. In Flash, AIR settings under General we have Landscape and fullscreen, I have chosen both of these, now when you open App on mobile and turn off screen and you rotate mobile phone, screen turns into Portrait view.

So Landscape "push" option doesn't work.

Any solution for this ?

Yes I ment the same, but I have in Flash AIR 3.2 and on my PC its 3.5 installed, but I don't know how to 'import' AIR 3.5 or 3.6 into Flash's settings ?


Download the SDK you want to try, might as well be AIR 3.6 at this point. Expand the package, to get a folder. The folder can keep its name and location, but out of habit I name it correctly, and put it into the Flash Pro folder. So, I have an AIR3.6 folder sat next to Flash Pro CS6. Then go to the Help menu in Flash Pro, and choose the Manage AIR SDK option. In there you can add in the SDK you just expanded, and then choose it as the Player version in the Properties panel.

The rotation issues on Android have been improved over time, and you could try AIR 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, or 3.6, until you get one that solves the issue. Or, you could turn off auto orient for Android. That's what I've tended to do.

I can turn it off on my Android but I need it to work on everyone else's.

How do I install new AIR inside of Flash CS6 ?

I didn't mean on the device, I meant in the Flash CS6 publishing settings.
