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

Did you check on Settings -> Screen if the Auto Rotation is enabled?

yes... and fixed auto rotation
Does anyone have a soulotion to this issue? It is driving me nuts!
Flash a custom rom
try to install zdbox, then place the widget 4x2 in your desktop
it has an option for the screen rotation
I don't know what is with all those solutions^ ?
no offense to the members, but HE IS already on a custom ROM and rom rotation is built in, no need for third party apps.

Go to settings > display > screen rotation
And make sure that you select desired degrees in settings as well.

Lol I was wondering that as well, those solutions seemed a bit weird :L I thought I had misread the title or the OP.
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
I am not sure if anyone else is facing this issue but my vibration on tap or keyboard is working terribly. So it will randomly stop vibrating when tapping any NAV button and or using my keyboard. This is on every ROM I have tried. I also tried wiping everything but still facing this issue. Any help?
