Screen Orientation does not work

Ionic Framework
1

I have followed these guidelines. https://ionicframework.com/docs/v3/native/screen-orientation/

The orientation lock for portrait works in emulator. When I rotate the device in emulator it fixes to portrait orientation but it DOES not work in devices; Iphone 11 pro max, iphone 11 pro, and tested with samsung android. There is no error showing in console. I can even see the console.log: portrait-primary.

Why I cant get it work with devices after going through appflow? Need help please.

in app.module.ts:
import { ScreenOrientation } from ‘@ionic-native/screen-orientation’;

then
providers: [ScreenOrientation]

in app.component.ts
import { ScreenOrientation } from ‘@ionic-native/screen-orientation’;

console.log(this.screenOrientation.type);
this.screenOrientation.lock(this.screenOrientation.ORIENTATIONS.PORTRAIT)

as a result no error. it only works in emulator and I can see console.log: portrait-primary which is correct orientation detected. But not working in devices.

Rotated in emulator:

Hi, have you tried with?

import { ScreenOrientation } from ‘@ionic-native/screen-orientation/ngx’;
