Auto Rotation problem? - Galaxy S II General

hi im new here. i found out my sgs2 got auto-rotation problem. i turn off auto-rotation on notification bar. and also in display>off auto-rotation. But..it still ON automatically...anyone has a this problem?
is there any fix for this? thanks yaa..

What do you mean it's on automatically ? Some applications just don't obey this setting.

yeah.. when i open notification...it ON again. but in setting show OFF... hmm, why aaa??

eg: when i open setting or messaging...it horizontal and change back to vertical. and i have to OFF again Auto-rotation in notification...and ok for awhile.
if i reboot. it didnt save the auto-rotation setting. it keep ON...

I see .. I have no idea why it's doing that though .. mine does no such thing.

I had this problem when i used touchwiz, it doesnt seem to do it anymore when i switched over to launcherpro

[Q] Screen Rotation control, noob question

Hi guys, I use screen rotator ever since I started using android, but now I was trying to find the service or program that handles the task switch after you long press the home key so I could use the task switcher in the horizontal mode and I could not find any thing related to it, do any of you android experts now this answer?
Cheers
My screen auto-rotates in the task switcher, I haven't changed any settings on it. I just have the "screen rotation" turned on.
Is auto-rotating working everywhere else?

Hi, thanks for the reply, I always have auto rotate switched off, I just want a few apps to auto rotate like Gallery and Gmail, if I turn it on everything works fine, however I want to limit the apps that auto rotate thats why I use Smart Rotator, but I wanted to allow the stock "task switcher" to have the same behaviour... I´ve searched online a lot and still could not find which service or program handles this...

Sorry, I missunderstood you earlier. I looked into it a little too, but couldn't find the option to enable the "task switcher" either. Have you tried the app Tasker? You might be able to set up a profile to auto rotate when "task switcher" is open. I haven't tried it personally, so I don't know how much hassle it is, or if it'll even work.

[Q] Brightness problem 4.4 KitKat??

Any body else has noticed it? (KitKat)
Turn off auto brightness. Try sliding it slowly down
and when you met 60/255 values back-light will light stronger...
which is weird. It should constantly lowering the
back-light but 60 value breaks it.
It is really annoying if you have auto-brightness enabled
especially when you approach dark places. Brightness will lower
and than BAM! at 60 value it will x-rays your eyes
Any body know how to fix that?
anybody?
Try to disable "Content Adaptive Backlight"
You must make a shortcut of this app with the launcher [Nova launcher i.e.] or an app to create shortcuts
Also you can disable or change the settings of this. Test the settings that best suit you...
Meanwhile.. i'm in need for some help too
check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/elife-e7/help/request-nv-items-backup-qcn-ou-nvf-t3097931
and try to help me, please

On the dialer of the phone type *#8702# to test your backlight.
If apears all in chinese, download GN_MMITest.apk and replace the one you have in /system/app.
Have you tried 3rd party apps?
Disable the "Content Adaptive Backlight" install this app Brightness Widget - Backlight! and manually set the level you want.
There could other apps that do this better, i just dont know. So if this app dont do the job as you intent search for another app to do so...
Take a look at this How to Improve Your And... and if that is your issue. They suggest a paying app, but if it suits your needs maybe you should consider it...
Hi,
I tried almost every 3th party app like Lux, Velis etc... but problem is still there!
GN_MMITest.apk you posted is not working it says "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
Thanks for your further help.
Have you noticed it?
When brightness goes across 60 value it will lighten up instead dimming...
With auto brightness turned on.
It seams it is system or kernel bug...

If u have root access then try xposed's module Screen Filter.
Link:- https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-screen-filter-t2893936
Thanks, but I read somewhere Xposed on KitKat cause boot loop...
So I am alone with that problem?
I'm installed xposed frameworks, and work fine, not all, but many modules work!
But, Screen filter no work, sorry! ?
Thanks anyway

Screen rotation fix for latest update

Hello, if you are experiencing bad screen rotation after latest update you can do this while waiting for the next update, hopefully CM13
Install this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.fameit.rotate&hl=en
Let it handle system rotation control and set it to automatic, it should fix your issues for now
Or if it doesn't work try this one, cause it seems to work better
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.crape.rotationcontrol&hl=en
Open the app and activate the two switches
In a German community it has been reported that switching auto rotation on and off in the display settings would fix the problem. Did u tried it? I'm on CM13 ... Can't try by myself

Just tried it. It feels less laggy but still needs 3-4 secs to rotate.

Yup doesn't work. The gyroscope seems okay, IMO its just a bug in the ROM, installing a rotation app seems to help but often isn't responsive. At lest i can use the notification to toogle tge screen orientation. I hope we get CM13 soon

what the heck is screen overlay detected on axiom 7

It about stops me from doing uploading pictures, downloading. It's driving me crazy anyone else having this problem?
Yea lots of people are. Anything that changes the status of the screen like some kind of screen filter like twilight, night owl, any of those things, can mess with this. It's been pretty annoying. I have Twilight set to a timer to eliminate blue light on the screen before sleeping and I have to freeze and defrost it several times a day. Apparently it's an issue with ZTE. There is a thread over there about it.

I guess that it should actually be a security feature to prevent an overlay app from abusing any open apps below it... but it is really annoying that the ZTE integrated feature Mi-POP will also make this warnings display... you can simply deactivate it through its notification bar shortcut but it's still annoying...

I'm going to guess you have MiPop enabled? is so turn it off and your screen overlay issue might go away.

Screen overlay is new in 6.0 to prevent apps from creating an overlay and giving permissions to themselves. It's not an issue with ZTE.
Yes screen overlay is new. Came from a N6 and never had this problem on stock 6.0 from Google. Facebook messenger will not do anything other than message can't call, or send pictures. Yes it is a problem with ZTE

Go to the "Apps" setting, and then click on the "gear-shaped" setting button to go to the "Draw over other apps" menu and turn off all apps that are enabled. Go back to the "Apps" setting and click on the app that needs permissions modified. When all the permissions are updated, go back and enable the "Draw over other apps" for those apps you disabled.
Use this app it will get rid of that annoying overlay issue.

Screen doesn't turn on when i get a call..!!

Title says it all.. When screen's turned on and call's incoming, i get a pop-up notification. When it's off.. Well, it remains off. I'm using RR rom, as usual. I didn't do anything special, so i got no clue why this happens. Hopefully somebody here had the issue & fixed it..

Clean Sensor Mirror If You Using Guard For Screen Then Remove It And Then Check If Problem Still Present Then Simply Reboot.
No it's not such an easy miss sadly..
Change the default settings of phone if u have changed the phone apk
Go to App & Notifications --> Default Apps --> Phone App ... then select your dialer app here.
Now see if issue is resolved.
