Hi.
I updated to kit kat recently and found that my screen rotation had stopped working. I installed kit kit as a fresh install and have also tried factory reseting my phone. Last night I performed the gyrotest in diagnostic via *#0*# and it passes.
I have also tried removing the battery and sim card numerous times but to no avail.
Any help would be great!

For some reason my bluetooth is not staying on. It comes on connects to gear then turns off immediately. I loaded Hyperdrive ROM on slot 1 then Beans ROM this morning on Slot 2 to check them out. Then just earlier I went back to my stock slot. I removed Hyperdrive earlier today and was going to stick with Beans on slot 2. I've been trying to connect my gear this afternoon but bluetooth will not stay connected for nothing. Any ideas? I've un-installed both slot 1 and slot 2 now and even then on stock ROM slot it still will not connect. Could it be possible that deleting something or maybe I screwed up something in SS. This is my first time to use it and once I installed I did do a nandroid. I've tried to install the backup to one of my slots and still have the same bluetooth issue.
Edit: I thought it was connecting to my gear but nope....notta!

I am having the same exact issue, has this been solved? I have tried a number of fixes that i found on xda and google but with no luck. I originally got the issue after flashing hyperdrive and thought it was rom related and switched to skyfall but no change. I have also tried wiping several times and fixing permissions, removing the transparent weather widget ( i couldnt as it was not installed), unchecking location on stock browser, changing to High accuracy. It was working fine before hyperdrive. The only thing i have not tried is wiping and flashing stock but it might be the only option at this point. I dont think its hardware as it was working fine before hyperdrive and it has not been dropped. What is the best or most effective way of wiping to stock and getting back to skyfall? I am running the AT&T galaxy s4 I337 on mdl boot, with nb1 modem, philz recovery and stock kernel from skyfall but I have also tried ktoon kernel. Thanks
I've had the same issue using various KK 4.4.2 ROMs with Safe Strap. I've tried everything imaginable to fix it and positive the problem lies with the beta version of SafeStrap or ROM implementation.
Stock odin

Glad to see I'm not the only one experiencing these issues but i dont think it is caused by SafeStrap for me because i have never used it. So I guess it has to do with the rom implementation. Would you happen to know what the most up to date stock rooted odin package is that i can use to flash to stock and then get back to skyfall or goldeneye? I did not flash any over the air and do not use safe strap. Thanks
Same problem but all my sensors show pass via *#0*# sensor checks. Tried nordic i9505 I9505XXUFNB9_I9505NEEFNB2_I9505XXUFNB9_HOME.tar 4.4.2, then SIngapore I9505XXUFNBE_I9505OLBFNB3_I9505XXUFNBE_HOME.tar 4.4.2 all the fken same problem. Screen rotation all fine when I flash firmware, root, then flash CWM touch - everything good. Screen rotate works until the first reboot after all of this which might even be a day or 2 later. As soon as reboot phone, screen rotation dies and it is a huge pain in the arse. Sensors continue to say pass via *#0*#. Every few days i have to re-flash firmware, re-root, then re-CWM touch, no need to factory reset just those 3 steps. Has anyone got any solutions for this yet??
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
I read that if you debloat something like samsung hub on kitkat rotation will stop working.
Maybe you can try reflash firmware again without debloat or debloat but left samsung hub on your phone.

As the header states, after rooting 4.3 and installing safestrap recovery, I decided to flash pre rooted 4.4.2, since I didn't want to loose camera features when going with GPE based roms. Well, my WiFi stops working after a few days, and won't start unless I do factory reset.
On top of that bluetooth, when connected to a speaker or a car audio skips transmission a few seconds at a time notoriously. Any thoughts/ideas?

My buddy got this phone for his gf so that she could use it overseas. The phone was in bad shape when he got it and I was able to to flash a custom rom Phonesis and it seemed to work fine. Out of the blue, the wifi and bluetooth stopped responding. So I now have this phone again and I am about ready to toss it.
I restored to factory using Kies 3.2. When it rebooted, the soft keys did not work. I installed the idlekernal for canadian models using Odin and that fixed that. Soft keys now work. Camera is not working. Wifi will not turn on. If it does, it sees my networks but will not allow it to connect. Bluetooth does the same thing.
I am not sure what I am missing as the phone has been restored twice and I have cleared the cache, reset everything and rebooted.
Does anyone have any recommendations or can recommend a working recovery and rom that will let her use the camera and wifi.
Flash correct stock rom through Odin.
