Auto rotation setting after Marshmallow - Galaxy E5, E7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated my Tab E to Marshmallow and when I did my device auto rotation stopped working. If you have the issue you can easily fix it by clicking portrait in your top pull down menu, that's seriously all you need to do. On my device the button in the pull down menu is next to sound. I did some Google searching and people were saying stuff like drop your device on a table LOL stuff like that to reset the auto-rotation, glad I didn't try that method. I figured this might help someone if they get in a jam after updating your Tab E to Marshmallow.

PLEASE HELP SOMEBODY!!!! HTC Home plugin caused backlight problem.

I installed the HTC.Kaizer.Home.Plugin.with.Tabsetting.schen on my Alltel PPC6800. After setting up the weather tab for my city, setting up the pictures in the favorites tab, I was toying around in the launcher tab to see what the different icons did. When I tapped the 3rd one from the left (appears to be the one that adjusts the backlight) it turned off the backlight on my phone!!
I've tried everything I can think of to turn it back on with no luck. I tried pressing the power button, every other button on the thing, soft resetting it, and pulling the battery for as much as an hour and then restarting it. NO LUCK!! The phone appears to be working since I can press the phone button twice and call the last number called. I just can't see the screen.
WHAT DO I DO!!!! Is there anyway to hard reset it without going into settings and clearing the memory? Or is there some shortcut to turn on the backlight?
Oh, and BTW, it still syncs with my PC. (Again, I just can't see the screen!) So is there anyway to make any needed changes, hard reset, or anything else via active sync?
Sorry for such a retarded first post but I am at total loss here. I've searched and haven't found anyone having had anything similar to this problem. At least I haven't found it. Apparently I'm not as smart as I thought I was.
Much thanks in advance for any help provided!! I really depend on my phone!!
ActiveSync Remote Display. You sync your phone with the computer, run ActiveSync Remote Display on the computer, and it will display the contents of the screen. It's how a lot of people get screenshots of what is on their phone. Special installation instructions for WM6.

You need to hit the same backlight button again. That will toggle through several levels of back lighting, one of which is off.

2015 Moto X Style - Screen Goes Black w/Onscreen Nav Buttons Showing!

Hi there ...
I've had my Moto X Style for about 6 weeks now & I totally love it ..
BUT, in the last 2 weeks, with no patterns showing, the screen will go black all of a sudden multiple times a day.?
While using an app, the onscreen buttons are there, haptic works on the buttons, black screen, but I have no more app access.?
I can press & hold the power button & shutdown fine. I even cleared the cache' of all my apps using an app, made no difference.?
I'm running out of idea's.?
Falling short of doing a factory reset, does anyone know how to fix this.?
The phone worked perfect for 4 weeks with ALL my apps installed back then,
so I don't know why it's going funny now.? Getting very annoying now, please help!?
On a specific app, or any app?
That's just it, I don't know, coz its random! - But I do take note, but nothing seems to follow any pattern as such.!?
Sent from my Moto X Style!
I have seen this after the phone has been unlocked by trusted device connection with BT and carkit. After disconnect and then trying to unlock the phone with pattern only the on screen buttons are there and no pattern.
Sometimes I tried twisting the phone so it goes in to camera and then swiping to view already taken images. This should give the lock pattern but I also get the black screen with only the buttons. After some retries I get a crash from Nova launcher (message is something like Nova launcher did not respond) after clicking the ok button the unlock pattern is back and I can unlock the phone. Other times this doesn't work, not within the amount of retry's I did, and I have to reboot the phone
Note: When you use the phone right after disconnect, before it's locked again you can use apps, sometimes only active apps, sometimes even start new ones. But after a while it will lock. Probably because it lost connection with the trusted device. After that same problem, can't unlock it again
I Had the same issue after I installed the Microsoft's AppComparison app (I don't know why I installed that app). But a factory reset solve the problem.

HELP! Can't get past lock screen (Pie Stable)

I was on official Pie beta (which worked excellent for me) with locked bootloader and today morning I got OTA for Pie stable. I thought what could possibly go wrong and updated it.
After updating successfully, On lock screen, I swiped up to enter my password, and it just showed me black screen. I tried various ways to go past that black screen. Nothing seemed to work. I tried reflashing Pie BETA zip from SD card in recovery, but that also failed as it showed error that it cannot flash old version when on new version. I don't want to factory reset as all my important app data will be gone. I can't even set the USB connectivity behaviour to MTP as selecting that option also shows me black screen. I am able to use camera and google assistant directly via lock screen but when trying to do anything else it shows me that black screen. I tried clearing cache from recovery, but that also didn't get me past that black screen. I can receive calls but can't do anything else. Even Whatsapp Web is working but I cannot open Whatsapp from my phone. I can't afford to factory reset as all my assignments are there in an app.
My last bet is to wait for someone or Asus to post Pie Stable zip and then reflash that zip from stock recovery via SD card.
If someone have any solution or has suffered from similar problem, please help
Hi,
I was also facing the same issue after updating to android Pie.
Here is a way around, using which I was able to access the phone.
Press power button.
You will be able to see the lock screen.
On the bottom bar, you will be able to see buttons,
on left, mic
in middle lock
and on right camera.
Swipe mic button, it will open the google assistance, however, it will ask for unlocking the screen.
Once you unlock this screen, you can go back to home screen.
If all go right, you will be back on your home screen and now your lock functionality will also be working as expected

Click to expand...

Thanks for answering
Entering password on that black screen also works.
Simply switch to a dark wallpaper instead of a light colour wallpaper.

Screen problem

I quess this might not be problem with phone itself, because it was fine till this day but I got some problems with bottom of my screen, as you can see on screenshot. Also, I can bring back buttons instead gestures in setting, or maybe I just cant see buttons because they are below edge?
Google didn't help me, so I am trying to find solution here.
Thank you.
edit: when I switch back to buttons not gestures, screen is normal but there is no buttons.
you have custom launcher, just try go with stock and see what happens
