App crashes when I lock orientation to PortraitFlipped about xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation HOT 10 OPEN

Hi @Stensan

Which version of Xamarin.Forms do you use?

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

Hi @wcoder
I use the latest stable version 3.0.0.482510

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

Ok, I will try to investigate the issue.

Workaround:
Try to use the latest 2.x version of Xamarin.Forms.

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

@Stensan

Would you please provide me an example of plugin using, when the application crashed (for quickly reproduce)?

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

Sure, thanks for helping!

I installed older Xamarin.Forms versions (2.5.1, 2.5.0 and 2.4.0) but each time I get the same exception.

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

Oh, yes, you right.

Try version 2.3.5.256-pre6

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

So it seems this is indeed a bug in Xamarin.Forms. I'll go and open a bug report there. Thanks again.

Currently, I have an idea for this issue (workaround):

• Create new custom renderer as UIViewController for XF page;
• Override the same methods in this ViewController (as here https://github.com/wcoder/Xamarin.Plugin.DeviceOrientation#ios-specific-support)

from xamarin.plugin.deviceorientation.

No sorry, this doesn't work. There is no more error now, but page does not rotate to upside down. I think this is really a xamarin bug, because even without plugin the portrait upside down doesn't work as expected when I turn my phone.
