I am having problem using the emulator.
Problem: Though my emulator in portrait mode, my home screen displaying in landscape mode.

Settings of the Emulator
Note: I don't have problem running this in API Level 8
Android 3.0 (and all 3.X versions) are only available for tablets, not for phones. Therefore their default orientation is landscape, not portrait. Select a tablet device such as the 10.1" WXGA (Tablet) (1280x800; mdpi)
and it will work as expected.
