Flashed euro rom 2 days ago. Everyhing worked fine til this morning. It's stuck in portrait mode. Can't find settings to change it. Tried rebooting and it didn't work. Googled and found no answers. Anyone have a suggestion?
Have you checked the orientation lock? If you look at the pull down notification bar, it should be one of the buttons (its the one on the far right on my tab, it should be the same for you).

Don't worry. Happened to me too a while ago. Spent a few days uninstalling and reinstalling stuff that I thought might be causing it...turns out it was the lock.
im stuck in portrait mode
orientation lock works but im stuck in portrait mode regardless of how its set
movies still play in landscape mode but nothing else is landscape
ive only had the device for a couple of days so it cant be a hardware issue and ive never touched any system files,
can this be fixed or has anyone else experienced this?
edit:
fixed with a hard reset
(i think it was launcher pro that caused it but not totally sure)

My Phone reboots by itself after a day since last boot, when I slide the unlock bar the screen freeze up an then reboots, after that, works fine for a day or two. Any idea what might be wrong? I got zapX rom with black glass theme.

Same thing happens to me.
Mine did the same. After a factory reset, no more problems. I hesitated a while knowing I would have to reinstall apps, but it was well worth it.

my phone does the same, its done it on OTA 2.2, flyX, apeX and Fission 2. motorola describes it as the phone going into a 'state of panic'. only solution i've found so far is to use 'no lock' so that i have no sliders, however now the screen comes on whenever i hit a button

I unfortunately can't recreate this. :S
But I wonder, if No Lock appears to alleviate the issue..
For those that want the lock screen, would something like WidgetLocker to turn off stock lock screen, and use WL's lock screen instead still resolve this?
Actually tried widget locker today in combo with no lock and that is working because its still not using the default lock screen. Been a good 12 hours now and reboot proof. Annoying but is a working work around.

Doesn't widgetlocker have an option to disable the stock lockscreen? Figured you could use it instead of no lock.. (??).
Maybe I'm wrong.
Any Solutions to this? How do you go about doing a Full Wipe, When I do the Factory wipe in recovery the problem still occurs.
Do you have to do something more where you un-root first?
I installed the froyo beta, and ever since then, my phone won't auto rotate anymore. Ive already ODINed back to stock, it still wont work Any ideas or help?
-Edit-
I downloaded Accelerometer Test to make sure that the accelerometer wasn't busted. It's working fine. The phone just will not rotate.
Only two things I can think of:
1: Go to settings > Sound and Display > Make sure Orientation is checked.
2: (If using Launcher Pro). Menu button while on homescreen > Preferences > Behavior Settings > make sure Enable Auto-rotation is checked.
Other than that, no idea :\

On stock, the homescreens wont rotate unless the keyboard is slid out.
Is it rotating on the browser and on pictures?

No. And if i slide the keyboard out, it rotates. But then it gets stuck in landscape unless i go to something that forces portrait mode, such as the home screen.

Ah if its even getting stuck in landscape mode than its got to be something framework or .apk related.
Beats me, sorry man :\ Hope someone is able to help you more so than I could.

I was able to recalibrate my g sensors as follows ..
This worked for me but I'll take no responsibility if it mucks something else up
1. Download a terminal app from the market
2. Enter one line at a time.
su
/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha
3. Follow the onscreen directions, while making sure you device is flat.
pay attention to the bump at bottom on back.
I hung said bump off the edge of table
I preformed this AFTER flashing to stock and then flashing my former ROM.
So it was not done in 2.2"

THANK YOU! I had the same problem and this fixed it. Of course, i had to root my shizzle again. By chance did anyone with this problem run the Froyo 2.2 built-in calibration before this came about?
Oh wow, thank you so much!! The fix using the terminal emulator totally worked for me too, I thought I was going to have to go back to stock to see if it would fix itself! After running the lines in the terminal, it still wouldn't automatically detect orientation, so went to the display settings, unchecked orientation, and checked it again, and now works perfectly! The lack of orientation was so frustrating, especially after using the keyboard and the only way to fix it was turning off the screen... thanks again!
Does this increase the speed of rotating in froyo beta cuz i noticed the rotating is really slow

This helped for me. I was having the slow rotation problem as well. This fixed it. I didn't see results right away though. Took a few minutes and a restart to work

Just wanted to bump this. I had issues with auto rotation broken after going to DK28 and downgrading back to DI18.
I didn't test if it fixed it or not, however it did remove the annoying lag on DK28 when the screen rotates. Only reason I was downgrading
What terminal app did you use?
It says "su" is not found

My galaxy tab screen won't rotate. I'm using Launcher Pro, the Orientation Lock wasn't on and I have no idea what the problem is. If anyone could help me or point me to the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
If you havent. Try rebooting. Also settings/display settings/calibrate
try locking and unlocking orientation

I tried rebooting, lock and unlock screen orientation, although I can't find calibration in display setting.

i had the same problem with launcher pro, stuck in portrait mode, i uninstalled the app then reset the device by holding power key for 8 secs, that fixed it and no data or apps were lost
There's two orientation locks if you're using launcher pro. One for the tab itself in the pull down bar, one in launcher pro setting menu.

I think I will try that today, since nothing else seems to work.
The auto rotation option in launcher pro is check, and the screen orientation lock in the pull down menu is not locked.
Well, I ended up just do a factory wipe and it is working now.
Thanks guys.
Good afternoon!
My screen does not rotate anymore and i have been searching all over the place to find the source or/and solution.
Somebody seen/had/heard this problem before?
I think i tried everything.. Al the settings, rotate app. Please help?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!
Samsung note 3
Rooted
Buzz launcher

Type *#0*# on your dialer and look for sensor then image test if it rotates your are good. If not have to check your luncher settings.

If you have deleted Samsung HUB you have to reflash your ROM, reinstalling HUB won't fix it has to be reflash. Once it's back, freeze it and rotation should be OK :good:
Both thanks for the reply!!
Tried all but did not have any effect.
Last but not least I got out the battery and sim card.. Put it all back in and started the note.
Rotation is back. Only homescreen, appdrawer won't rotate.

They don't rotate by default (unless you have enabled in GB/XB or Wanam) - it's possible if you have enabled it, there is a conflict hence no rotation of home/drawer.

Hi,
I have a strange issue with my galaxy s4 i9505, lollipop. My clock get stuck when I lock my screen. And time does not update even when screen is unlocked i.e the clock starts from the same time when screen was locked. For example if I lock my screen at 10:00 am, and if after one hour I unlock the screen, the clock will start from 10:00 am instead of 11:00 am. I tried searching on the internet but I could not find any help regarding this. However there were discussion about the lag of one or two second about the time update when screen unlocks. Any ideas about this??
Factory reset, I guess.

Do you have automatic date & time enabled?
I had something a little similar, but it included all my widgets. are you using go launcher or a go product like next3d launcher ? the problem persisted thru different firmwares and launcher updates. I had to go into the launcher and stop it so that it would restart itself. sorry that I don't have a solution, I never got to the bottom of the issue, it simply stopped happening at some point and I'm not even sure why...

Yes, I tried both enabling and disabling it, issue stays as it is. Currently it is enabled. I have no clue what's wrong. It is so annoying

I am not using any go launcher or go product. All things/apps are default that come with lollipop.
