[Q] G-sensor/accelerometer/auto rotate not working

hi,i just bought zte blade, rooted, installed cwm, upgraded to gen 2 using tpt method, and installed CM7, stable 7.0.3, also tried RC1, latest nightly and a few random nighlies
and my problem occurs in all of them.... auto rotate isnt working... IT IS TURNED ON in sttings,tried to turn on of tried to reboot tried to wipe everything tried factory reset nothing helps... and i see im not the first one with this problem but all of the topics started about this issue have 0 replies.. this bug is not stated anywhere in changelogs and in fact it makes CM7 unusable on ZTE Blade.. cause you cant always message and browse and do everything in portrait view... i heard its a kernel issue that every overclock enabled kernel on device upraded from g1 to g2 makes accelerometer or g sensor or w/e you call it stop working.. i really love cm7 and i bought this phone thinking im gonna use it on it and this issue is really frustrating please help someone.. please
Try another ROM like Swedish Spring or Ginger Stir Fry and if it still occurs in those ROM's then it's probably a hardware fault.
same hi
hi there, ive bought my blade 2 days ago, and got the same issue you are talking about, i flashed it to swedish and find out that auto-rotate doesnt work, so ive tried different kernel that should have helped, but istead blade didnt even boot, ive also tried newest CM7 with no luck...kinda desperate and confused that there are just few threads about this and no real solution, thinking of going back to stock froyo, but iam afraid of bricking...if u find any solution write here or on email, ill do the same if i find one, thx
New Blades seem to have different sensor hardware. Try Sensor List from market and compare the results with this screen (from Orange San Francisco bought earlier this year):
db.tt/ms5m4i6
(can't post links)
yes your right, thats the source of the problem, my accelerometer is not the same as yours.. heres the screen tinyurl dot com slash 3tqv26o
now me and other peaople wold like to know if there is a way to modify kernel to work with this hardware... i think cm7 developers should be intersted in resolving this

didnt know that, people posting about this on CM7 forums dont get much attention
if they really manage to get it to work that will be my uber happy day like when i had wildfire stock 2.2 and alpharevx came out
I also have the same problem, will hit modaco forums n check if there`s something on it.
Can we calibrate those sensor?

Got my blade yesterday...auto rotate was working well till i upgraded to gen2 and installed cm7. I have being doing a lot of research on that...so if anyone comes up with a workaround, please inform
P.S i am not uninstalling cm7, thats the best rom i have ever seen

Now Brian n the rest, there is no work around on it, tried changing different kernels without success, finally flashed cm7 n installed Ginger Stir Fry, its been 3 days n everything is fine, but remember u`ve already upgraded to Gen 2, so no need of Tpt install, just get the Rom, its also very good at preserving power. with problems hit me up on twitter @alexakams
i also use Ginger Stir Fry because AutoRotation dont work with cm7. its a clean and fast rom, but Elitemovil Blade_Rom is also an option.

[Q] Please Help Me ):

Not sure how i did this but after installing GenerationX rom my camera stopped working...ive tried almost everything that i know like trying different roms, doing a restore backup in rom manager, pulling the battery..sim and memory card and it still forces close. if anyone could help me i would GREATLY appreciate it <3 thank you!
Sounds like a hardware issue.

What other roms did you try out that the front and rear cameras arent working on?
Do a full wipe and either reflash the ROM or flash another ROM.
I would suggest to just flash the latest CM7 nightly.
What other Roms have you tried. Are you possibly using the wrong kernel type for your Rom?
I agree with mackster, the easiest/best thing to do would do a FULL wipe and flash another rom, or redownload that rom and try to reflash it. (after a full wipe of course)
Edit: Lots of Rom choices listed in the link in my sig ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

i think i did all that, maybe something happened when i flashed the newest version of generationx...i even went back to old roms that i had no problem with previously...maybe it messed up some sort of script somewheres along the line? Sorry if im not sounding too brilliant i am a noob and am just tryna get with the program. thank you guys so much for the help!!!

Are you having these problems with your ffc before or after restoring your apps (either by googles auto restore or via titanium or mybackup)?

I didnt even bother restoring my apps because i wasnt sure if i had to do a restore again, i tried qik and the stock camera app, but im also thinking that the wallpaper and theme is doin some funny stuff too like not changing when i switch to new roms...i just put the royal ginger rom on it and i have a wallpaper and theme from like 2 roms ago...so idk im all confused :/
this is all i know...i had the generation x v4 rom on my phone and it was working just fine, then i seen that generationx had a new version so i flashed that...thats when it all started...and since then ive tried to revert to tha rom that was working fine and its not fixing it

[Q] RIL bug on Defy+ (Telephony Layer error)

Hi All.
I've been trying different custom ROMs ever since i rooted my Defy+ about 7 months back. I was pretty happy with CM 10 until the RIL bug came up - see the attached image.
I tried other ROMs like MIUI, WIUI, illusion, Mokee, but sooner or later, the error kept coming.
I have noticed that the bug isn't there with GingerBread based ROMs (Not very sure since i used these ROMs for less than a week)
The occurrence of the error is uncertain. It doesn't occur for days sometimes.
I have been searching for solutions/workarounds since quite some time, but haven't been able to resolve it.
So, is there a solution? And is there any ICS/JB based ROM that doesn't have this bug? (I can't live with GB)

How about this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40961000&postcount=1170
I flashed the above files (after removing batteryd as instructed), but after boot, the phone was not able to detect any cellular networks. I tried toggling the airplane mode and also rebooting, but with same result.
Anything that i might be missing here?

I've tried the solution there but no result.
And one more thing. The stock Rom gives you the same result I tried it and gives you random reboots (this is because Motorola has this workaround for the ril bug but without the warning that was added by Maniac103).
In the link posted above that was the solution that worked for me (mainboard change) maybe you will find a solution that will work for you maybe not.
Someone in a thread in dev section told that he opened the phone and making better contact for the display and the battery was a good solution for the ril bug.

I had this bug sometimes when i choose a wrong baseband or set wrong values on CPU settings.
Actually, this bug randomly appears, no telling when it comes. Sometimes it appears even on a fresh install.

In development thread, this post by overclockthesun seems to indicate that a BL6 SBF could help. Can somebody confirm ?
There is no direct correlation, since it's a hardware bug, and in any event the underlying ril framework remains the same. At best the bug occurrence is quite random, and one of forum members(above) was able to fix this problem only after a motherboard replacement. I personally had this bug once while using cm7. After a clean reinstall, I've never had this bug crop up again. Also, in GB roms(stock), the ril bug is present, but occurs silently without any error, and so calls/sms/data stop working

Ohh what's ril.. And what about network issue ?

Problem with wifi on d802 with official cyanogenmod 13

Hi guys im new on XDA...Actually I follow xda from time optimus one but I never registered on this fantastic forum so now it is almost 6 years that i use xda. OK go back to my problem .... After a clean installation of the CM13 on my g2 all works fine but there is only one problem with the wifi...Wifi connects and disconnects without any reason and it is annoying someone can help me or have a fix about this. I apologize if I have not posted in the official thrade rom (mean on the official post of CM13 ) but xda limits the possibility to post on developer post until they reach at least 10 posts . Best regards and thanks in advance
Hi, i think you are experiencing that problem, becouse not everything is fixed and stable since this is a rom in a alpha stage, and yes i have that problem too on the 13/12/2015 nigthly installation. I recommend using cm 12.1 for daily use until cm 13 gets more stable.
Bests regards! I hope i could help!
When I using cyanegonmod 12.1, I have a obtaining ip adress bug. i can't solve this now I'm using cloudyg2 v3.3 (I'm sorry for my english)
So never mind right now I stay with this little problem untill a new fix, at least I'm not the only one with this problem... By the way thanks all for the help

I think this camera focussing issue is affecting all Yureka/Yureka Plus users. I have a rooted Yureka running CM 14.1 Unofficial. The rear camera is unable to focus. Front one is working fine. I suppose it's a software issue rather a hardware one as I've never damaged the device by which the camera performance would get affected.
Dunno how will I fix this. My three friends having Yureka/Yureka Plus are experiencing the same problem and YU doesn't give a damn about it. They will provide you the very outdated CM 12.1 ROM as a solution or will charge heavily.
Is there someone who has solution?

I have the same problem in my yu yureka. After some research, I came to the conclusion that it is not a hardware problem, but close enough to it. According to what I read, it happens when some of the binary files associated with the camera get corrupted. I thought it should be fixable by copying the original files again, though I haven't been able to achieve anything in that matter. When I took the phone to service centre, they told me that the camera needs to be replaced. I didn't get it repaired. A similar problem occurred in my previous phone as well, which happened after I changed my ROM a couple of times. Even in this phone, it occurred right after changing the ROMS a couple times. Which leads me to believe that changing the ROM multiple time causes this issue.
I am on Stock ROM never Changed, never upgraded, Currently on Cyanogen 11. Never Rooted. But Issue arised after 2.5 yrs of usage. Info Just to figure out what is wrong.
I don't know why u all are facing this issue,
Try flashing CNM on Custom ROMs....
And check if it is working fine or not
