B4X: 
Sub GetOrientation As Int
  Dim r As Reflector
  r.Target = r.GetContext
  r.Target = r.RunMethod2("getSystemService", "window", "java.lang.String")
  r.Target = r.RunMethod("getDefaultDisplay")
  Return r.RunMethod("getRotation")
End Sub

There's probably a lot wrong with my method but it seems to work.

B4X: 
Sub GetOrientation As String

    Dim lv As LayoutValues 
    lv = GetDeviceLayoutValues
   
    If lv.Height > lv.Width Then
        Return "P"
    Else
        Return "L"
    End If
   
End Sub

I think that this code is enough, but I'm note sure:
B4X: 
If 100%y > 100%x Then
    Return "P"
Else
    Return "L"
End If

EDIT: I've tried it and it works!
