  1. For API 11 and later, can use seekbar's XML attributes(android:rotation="270") for vertical effect.

    <SeekBar
android:id="@+id/seekBar1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:rotation="270"/>

  2. For older API level (ex API10), only use Selva's answer:
