You have to do a work-around like it was answered [here](https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/android-opencv/orb$20parameters/android-opencv/-1mXlMNOudI/s7bK0a5xRr8J) in the past.

These comments have ORB default parameters values that I saw within the source code, but these might be outdated and might have errors. Chech the source yourself to make sure.

    // ORB Default values:
    // float scaleFactor = 1.2f // Coefficient by which we divide the dimensions from one scale pyramid level to the next
    // uint nLevels      = 8   // The number of levels in the scale pyramid
    // uint firstLevel   = 0   // The level at which the image is given
    // int edgeThreshold = 31  // How far from the boundary the points should be.
    // int patchSize     = 31  // You can not change this, it is allways 31

    // int WTA_K = 2           // How many random points are used to produce each cell of the descriptor (2, 3, 4 ...)  
    // scoreType = 0           // 0 for HARRIS_SCORE / 1 for FAST_SCORE
    // nFeatures = 500        // not sure if 500 is default
