Remarks
Returns the rotation of the screen from its "natural" orientation. The returned value may be Surface#ROTATION_0 Surface.ROTATION_0 (no rotation), Surface#ROTATION_90 Surface.ROTATION_90, Surface#ROTATION_180 Surface.ROTATION_180, or Surface#ROTATION_270 Surface.ROTATION_270. For example, if a device has a naturally tall screen, and the user has turned it on its side to go into a landscape orientation, the value returned here may be either Surface#ROTATION_90 Surface.ROTATION_90 or Surface#ROTATION_270 Surface.ROTATION_270 depending on the direction it was turned. The angle is the rotation of the drawn graphics on the screen, which is the opposite direction of the physical rotation of the device. For example, if the device is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise, to compensate rendering will be rotated by 90 degrees clockwise and thus the returned value here will be Surface#ROTATION_90 Surface.ROTATION_90.
This rotation value will match the results of #getMetrics: this means that the rotation value will correspond to the activity if accessed through the activity.
