Note 3 (N9005) auto rotation does not work for any CFW

Dear Community,
I hope that this is the right place to post and any of you can help me.
My (aktual) Hardware/Software bits:
Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005)
Android: 5.1.1
Baseband-Version: N9005XXUGBOD3
Kernel-Version 3.4.108-f2fs-temasek-cm12.1-hlte-v1.25+
temaseksnappy #1
Temasek unofficial version V16.4
Build: LMY48J test-keys
Recovery: twrp 2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4
My actual problem is the following: My Note 3 by default had a 4.4.2 OFW on it, which I early upgraded to Lolipop 5.0.1. Everything works for the OFW 4.4.2 and 5.0.1 fine. As soon as I try to flash it with a CFW like CM11, CM12, CM12.1, CM12.1 (temaseksnappy), Gummy 4.4.4 I am losing the feature of auto rotation.
Of cource I did a clean flash, wiping DALVIK/CACHE/DATA and system, double time even one befor the flash, one after.
I also tried to put the battery, sim and sd out for few min before rebooting, while autorotation is manualy turned off.
Even a MODEM I flushed to fix this issue, but without success. Nothing helps but going back to OFW.
My last try was downgrading to the original 4.4.2, including baseband trieing from there to go to any CFW (CM11) as well as from OFW 4.4.2 -> OFW 5.0.1 -> CFW 5.1.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/hlte-spr-vzw-temaseks-unofficial-t2953375)
There was also a post about a possible missing or broken lib in /system/lib which I replaced
Nothing helps (libGNU... something). This helped me alreay once in OFW after kicking out all the junk apps, but this is a different storry and not related anyhow.
Is there anybody out there who has the same problem or even better knows a solution?
My shot would be that:
1) CM has a problem with my particular hard-/software (Kernel, Baseband, Recovery, whatever) as I just tied CM or at least CM based CFWs.
PLEASE HELP.
Thank you very much in advance.
After about almost a year I cam back, giving again a try to CM, However I still have the same issue. Finally Anybody please!
Do you have the same issue with touchwiz 5.1.1 and 6.0.1?. Not the cm/aosp roms which aren't samsung based.

Hello,
Thx for your reply. Right now I am on CM13 (temasek hlte v9.6)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/hlte-spr-vzw-temaseks-unofficial-t2953375
This might should be specially compiled for sm-n9005 like mine.
Everything expect rotation works fine. However The accelleration is also working fine as I tested with "sensor test". Even the integrated camera App is rotating, however the rest is not.
In addition I downloaded "adaptive rotationfree", If I set it "stock Auto" nothing happens, but if I set it to "force auto" the rotation will work exacly once and then stops undtil I force it to portrait again.
What do you mean exactly with "touchwiz"? Is this jus a different kernel or a whole CFW?
As I wrote in the frist post I tried already a lot of CFW and ALL had this issue, but the OFW ;(
What shell I flush to get this working, which is not OFW?
BIG THX for YOUR HELP
Touchwizz is the firmware that comes with the stock Samsung firmware .
Also in custom Samsung based roms .
Hello,
thx for the tip with TouchWiz vs aosp. At the moment I am running "DarkLord N5 Release Candidate 2.12" which can get find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-darklord-s6-port-alpha-t3083087
This Rom is TouchWiz Based and guess what ....
Autorotation works.
However I do not understand what the problem realy is and would prefer to run cm13 insteat. I mean even samsung devices got a accellerator within which works also fine with AOSP software, showing numbers moving while turning the phone. In addition for example on the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/hlte-spr-vzw-temaseks-unofficial-t2953375 it is said that this is explicite for note 3 including the model n9005. So ...
Can anybody point me to the problem or even better to the fix?
Is there any chance CM would fix this?
Regards

SM-G900F - camera Failed Error - Desperately need help

So guys, the story of my camera failed error goes like this :
1. when i bought S5 6 months back it was on stock lollipop firmware.
Camera working fine.
2. OTA updated to Stock Marshmallow, camera still working fine.
Till this point i did not root or install custom recovery.
3. Rooted phone with CF auto root. Camera was still working.
4. Took NANDROID backup of rooted stock marshmalllow.
5. One fine day phone entered into bootloop. Then i started experimenting with various custom ROM's.Installed TWRP & started trying out various ROM's and camera failed error pops up as follows :
MM Touchwiz ROM + MM Bootloader + MM Modem = Camera failed.
LP Touchwiz ROM + LP Bootloader + LP Modem = Camera failed.
KK Touchwiz ROM + KK Bootloader + KK Modem = Camera failed.
The above is for both custom rom installed thru recovery and stock rom flashed thru ODIN or Kies.
But surprisingly
MM AOSP (Res. remix 5.7.1) ROM + LP BOOTLOADER +LP MODEM = Camera Works.
But if update BL to MM bootloader then Camera fails again on AOSP rom too.
So, can i take any files / libraries from AOSP rom to touchwiz rom and make camera work in touchwiz.
or is it possible to run marshmallow touchwiz rom on LP bootloader ?
with AOSP rom i have consistent signal issues so cannot use it as a daily driver,
I am starting to belive that MM bootloader or setting of permissions by bootloader is creating problems for camera to work. camera works on AOSP rom, so it doesnt appear to be a hardware issue.
any help will be much appreciated.

May be a stupid question. But you are flashing the exact MM firmware for your phone? May not be musch assistance, but I do know that most galaxy cameras are firmware specific. If I used a sprint s5 camera with a Verizon motherboard, the camera will fail on stock but not aosp. Because it doesnt match with the appropriate firmware.

yes // i am using the exact firmware for my model SM-G900F
How does it fail? Is there a error message or force close? Try to make a picture with WhatsApp, does it work? I've got a problem that could be the same unfortunately no solution yet. I thought it was because of a new nightly from CM13 but after a lot of weeks and updates its not working again.

I would suggest flashing pure stock to see if it's hardware related.

[Q] Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightly on Galaxy S3 Neo GT-19301i Camera & Flashlight problems

[Q] Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightly on Galaxy S3 Neo GT-19301i Camera & Flashlight problems
Hello everyone and sorry for bothering you with repeated question that was answered a lot of times in the past,
So i flashed CM 12.1 Nightly on my Galaxy S3 Neo GT-19301i from : download . cyanogenmod . org /?device=s3ve3g
My Camera and Flashlight wont work. I get the usual Cannot connect to the camera pop up window and my flashlight is not detectable
by any app i've tried. I ve tried to flash a lot of zips that were supposed to fix my prob with the camera and apparently they didnt.
I would realy like someone to give me a detailed on how to fix those to problems.
Thanks for your time, Axell

Nope , still cant connet to the camera. Do i have to wipe anything before or after the flash ?
Wipe everything, flash the rom then flash the last camera fix (one find among older CM12.1 unofficial Nikolas releases). That should be all as I don't know what & how you flashed in between.
be sure you not change file system to f2fs... this file system causing same problem sometime.
Another to need atention is : if you do complete factory reset included format partition, after first boot, twrp take a question about you want to remain system readonly.
On that case set system to writable and do the camera patch.
Maybe you have a hardware problem?
Which model of phone you have?

Which custom rom you're facing this issue? Have you installed a nougat custom rom and not installed marshmallow firmware maybe?
i tried resurection remix rom,dot os rom. while installing those roms i simply wiped the cache,dalvik cache,system and flashed the rom and gapps... everything was perfect except the camera error.
i dont know about the marshmallow firmware.could you please give me the link for installation of that marshmallow firmware
