Hi Tim,
I update my patch for below reasons.
1. if screen is 1280x800 and app is opened in portrait mode, then my original isLarge may return us wrong value.
2. add isPortrait and isLandscape api
3. add orientationObserver
4. function name and file name may cause some confusion, so I update the name as screen_layout
Could you kindly check again? thanks.

Hi all,
Bug 788975 tried to use accelerometer sensor to detect screen rotation because
1. some low end device didn't have orientation sensor.
2. Orientation sensor consumed more power then accelerometer sensor.
So if you use deviceorientation to calculate the screen orientation then it will not work on some low end device. (but auto rotation is workable.)

Hi Macro,
Thanks for your comment 4. I will listen mozorientationchange instead of deviceorientation.

Hi Tim,
I think I should remove isPortrait, isLandscape, and orientationObserver, since mozorientationchange event already do a great job on it and also window.screen.orientation which tell us portrait/landscape with primary/secondary.
However, I still made some change on this patch. Considering app is opened in portrait mode under 1280x800 screen, the original api will not tell correct result, so I choose maximum value of height and width to identify device type.
Could you kindly review again? Thanks.

In last week offline discussion, George and I decide to not use maxWidth (get max value from width/height) here because current break point (768px from bootstrap) is sufficient to distinguish for most bigger device(ex 1080x800 or 1200x800). Either 1200, 1080, or 800 exceed 768px, thus generally tablet will always be detected as 'medium' device.

Backed out for breaking the build, eg:

(and yeah logs are pretty useless lol)

This might have been false blame by the gaia commit robot cooincidentally pushing at around the same time (turns out we don't use gaia.json properly all the time), and the bustage here might have been caused by bug 904068.
