title: How to use SensorManager.getOrientation() instead of TYPE_ORIENTATION
body: <p>I am doing an app in android. The app have some quotes saved in database and I want to slide the quotes in the screen using the sensors of the phone. So I want that when the phone moves to the left I can see in the screen the next quote and when I move the phone to the right to see in the screen the previous quote.  What type of sensor phone  do you think is better to use?  I am trying to use Type_orientation but I have the error that :This constant was deprecated in API level 8. How can I replace it with SensorManager.getOrientation() .
  Or do you think is there any other sensor that is better for me to use?</p>
