I had a quick look, and cant find a way to detect the auto rotate state.
What is your end goal out of curiosity? Do you juat want to have a visual notification of autorotate so you can turn it off? Because an alternative would be to automatically turn it on and off.
I use this:

When in YouTube, Netflix, etc, it enables autorotate, and when you switch out it disables it again.
I'm just looking for a visual cue that auto rotate is toggled on or off. Sometimes I lay down sideways and I forget that my auto rotate is on so I have to physically turn my phone around to get back to portrait mode. I know it's silly really but my Samsung phone doesn't have an option to display the rotation lock status in the status bar.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Maybe try the state->custom setting thing? For some reason I cant find the autorotate setting on my phone :/
There are apps for screen rotation: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.crape.rotationcontrol
Perhaps that will do what you want?
