I had the same issue, the only fix i found for now is to use android support library 26.1.0. Its seems to be a problem with android library 27.0.0.

[JSpiner]

@GrayaMax can you tell me more information?

[GrayaMax]

@JSpiner sorry I don't have more information, i realized i get this error when i upgraded appcompat-v7 to version 27.0.0. So for now i return to version 26.1.0 and it still working. I will post more information if I find more.

@susemi99 @GrayaMax @JSpiner
There are some problem.
After 27( Android O), If we use android:screenOrientation="portrait" in manifest, we got error like that.
If I remove that, we can solve.
But I dont think that is real solution.
I want to reason and try to real solution.

For Android developers,
Recommend to use targetSdkVersion as 26 instead of 27 for a while.

[andreas-]

Fix that worked for us
targetSdkVersion 27

and add TedPermissionActivity to your manifest where you override android:screenOrientation
<activity android:name="com.gun0912.tedpermission.TedPermissionActivity" android:configChanges="mcc|mnc|locale|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|fontScale|uiMode|orientation|screenSize|layoutDirection" android:screenOrientation="unspecified" android:theme="@style/Theme.Transparent.Permission" tools:replace="android:screenOrientation"/>

[bbincybbaby]

?? can you explain it in more detail?

[BoxResin]

@andreas- Great. It works!

[JSpiner]

@ParkSangGwon
According to this commit.
Since android 'O'(26), we should satisfy following condition.

if (ActivityInfo.isFixedOrientation(requestedOrientation) && !fullscreen
                 && appInfo.targetSdkVersion >= O) {
             throw new IllegalStateException("Only fullscreen activities can request orientation");
         }

I think some of these solutions are possible.

1. Enable fullscreen

• Because the TedPermissionActivity is transparent. It doesn't matter.

2. Set screenOrientation as unspecified

• Same with @andreas- solution.
• We don't know which direction the application using this library will use. So we should support all direction.

3. Customize

• add setScreenOrientation() function at PermissionBuilder

4. Trick Code

• First, enable fullscreen mode.
• Set orientation as unspecified.
• Reset fullscreen mode.
• Done!

Give me your opinion. I'll make PR.

@JSpiner
i'd suggest to go with option 2
We experienced wonky behavior when dealing with fullscreen activities and immersive mode. This library should not make assumptions about the orientation

@BoxResin glad i could help

[JSpiner]

@andreas-
I totally agree with you!
Also, I think it should support option 3.

add setScreenOrientation() function at PermissionBuilder

So I'll make PR using 1/3 option.

[roman-ku]

I'm still getting this problem. Was the fix pushed?

[fajaranugrah]

how to create only android:screenOrientation="portrait" ?
can you help me

[jughoor]

The problem is fixed in version gun0912.ted:tedpermission:2.2.0 but if you use gun0912.ted:tedpermission:2.2.2 with target version 28 the App will crash.
