My BB Curve 9380 screen stuck in Landscape

My screen has somehow become stuck in landscape display. I've tried pulliing the battery but this does not help. How do i get it back to automatically change between portrait and landscape modes as i rotate my phone?

Hey Toobaalam,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
This issue may be an issue with your computer, the BlackBerry® Desktop software does not have the option to automatically synchronize or copy .exe files to the BlackBerry® smartphone. You can disable mass storage mode on the BlackBerry® smartphone, this would prevent the computer from accessing the media card when connected to the computer.

Home Screen Stuck in Landscape!!! Droid Razr HD

I have tried everything I can think of the auto rotate works for all apps the rotate, the auto rotate switch is on, I have tried configuring levels. I have tried all but a hard reset which I am willing to do I just don't know how and I don't want to do it if its not going to fix the problem. The screen wont rotate in any normal phone function texting, home screen....etc...????

Hello Jamesd5784, this is definitely out of the ordinary! Was the Razr HD connected to a dock or separate accessory that had it get stuck in landscape mode? We can place the device in safe mode first to rule out any 3rd party apps from causing it to stay stuck. Here's steps: http://vz.to/PtCCtS The last resort option would be the hard reset to get the phone back to factory settings.

On/off button stuck, messaging screen stuck in landscape mode

I have had my iPhone 4 for 1 year and 1 month. It has been great up to two days ago when the on/off button mysteriously quit working. Then, today the messaging screen just froze in landscape mode. I have been googling my problem and the average response is to reset your phone. Which makes sense, except I can't use my little on/off button. So, what can I do? Super annoying to text in landscape mode...Help me!!

Can I turn off my phone using the accessibility feature and then plug it in to a power source to turn it back on? It may reset my messaging screen...I can live without the lock button but I'm not a fan of texting in landscape mode. I just want to for sure know the power source will turn it back on.

My Blackberry Curve 9380's screen won't turn on!

My Blackberry Curve 9380's display screen won't turn on! The flashing red light still appears so I guess I am still able to receive texts. I can also receive calls; my ring tone goes off but I cannot answer! I have to unlock it and I can't do anything on a touch screen that's virtually useless now. I've done so many battery pulls yet it doesn't work.
I did drop it but it wasn't very hard. My bb fell when it was in my rubber case and the fall was around knee length (I am very short only 5'0). My friend said its possible that the backlight broke. If it is true, how much does it cost to repair it? My warranty expired a few weeks ago...
My friend also said there could be something else wrong with it. Like a downloaded an app that had a corrupt file (this has happened to me before and the phrase "Uncaught exception java.lang.error" kept popping up every time I did a battery pull) or a programming error. I tried Jl_Cmder and I've done reset to factory. I've even tried to wipe everything completely. "The device will reboot to a white screen with a '507' error" this didn't happen... It did reboot but nothing can be seen. I regret it deeply ...
I'm sorry this is so long but please can someone help me? ):

Ouch, that doesn't sound good. Even though it's out of warranty, you should check first with your mobile provider for a repair estimate.
Sorry!

IPhone 6 screen unresponsive at times and certain apps stuck in landscape

i have noticed on my iPhone 6 that sometimes the screen is unresponsive when I'm trying to go back in certain apps and those apps also get stuck In landscape mode... It's like the phone freezes up. Anyone else experiencing this?

In the last couple of weeks (and nothing has changed) - I noticed that my iPhone 6 will remain in landscape mode if I lift it up too quickly. It's not frozen - but it's not detecting that it is upright. The workaround seems to be lower the phone to a horizontal position and then lift it again - slowly - and that seems to restore the portrait mode. I could understand if this started happening immediately after an update - but it did not - it started about 2 weeks ago. Typically the app that I use in landscape mode (the most) is youtube. I'm wondering if it is something with the YouTube app - but I don't recall any recent updates for it either.

Iphone 6 plus stuck in landscape mode rotation failure

Hi
My iPhone 6 plus keeps getting stuck in landscape mode even though rotation is not locked. Is this a bug, is there a fix?
Thanks

Hi Sunnifromlondon,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone screen is not rotating as expected, there could be several potential causes. First, we can attempt some troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue.

Iphone 6 gets stuck in landscape mode

Hello
iphone 6 or possibly the ios update has some bugs. For instance, it gets stuck in landscape mode even though the screen rotation is not locked.
In addition, safari does not react quickly when trying to access the menu to close a page or add a new one. It takes several attempts and after uing the home button several times, the menu finally appears.
Please advise

This is happening to me too. Some posts indicates that it is more likely to happen in zoom mode and switching to standard mode fixes it, but my phone has always been in standard mode. I am having this problem with an iPhone 6 128 GB phone with iOS 8.1. I hope this is only a software problem and not a hardware problem.

IPhone 6 getting stuck in landscape mode

My iPhone 6 keeps getting stuck in landscape mode. Also the camera will not always open from the locked screen, it just bounces up and down but does not slide all the way up to launch the camera app. Is apple working on a fix?

Samsung stratosphere keeps getting stuck in landscape mode?

All of a sudden a couple of days ago my phone started getting stuck in landscape mode, even when the auto rotation was off. I didn't mess with any of the settings to make this happen but sometimes I have to turn the screen on and off a couple of times before it goes back to regular mode. I even factory reset the phone today, but it is still going on.

Hmm it would do that too, but I actually just realized what the problem was when
I took the snap on case off. Apparently when I slide the keyboard down the
bottom part of the screen goes beyond the part where it's supposed to stop. I'm
guessing that caused some kind of censor to not work properly. But thanks for
the help.

Stuck on landscape mode when playing music - intermittent

Kind of a weird problem here.
Occurs intermittently, but still very very common
When listening to music for about 10 mins or more, and ipod touch 2g is placed in pocket or while lying down, the screen switches to landscape mode and displays the album art. This is normal.
However, about 75% of the time, if I were to turn on and unlock the ipod, the screen is stuck on the landscape mode, and does not rotate back.
This is anoying because i don't have the pause, rewind, ffword buttons, or the music slider. no matter what i do, shake it, reposition it, turn off and on , it will not rotate from the landscape album art.
the only way to fix it is to press HOME, and go back into MUSIC.
while this isn't the end of the world, it certainly doesn't appear to be normal behaviour. I have no problems with any rotation for any other apps. Just music, and only if its been playing for a little while (not long, ~10mins)
Any suggestions? I called apple, and they said to restore it to factory default.
obviously that is a valid suggestion, just wanted to get any input before losing all my data
thanks
Mike

I haven't seen it get stuck, but -- when I'm in landscape mode (I have a speaker that holds the iTouch in the landscape position), is there a way to get to playlists? The only thing that I see is the album covers. Even if I press the home button, and then press music -- it switches to the album covers and I can't select anything except the albums. Please help.

Stuck in landscape then portrait mode...

After attempting to watch a video, the iPad stayed stuck in landscape mode. None of the following helped: turning on & off, attempting to sync, shaking it around, using different apps. I finally did a Reset All Settings and it put the device back in portrait mode but now stuck there. Since all else has failed, I am about to do a Restore.

Make sure the Screen Rotation Lock button on the side isn't locked.

Stuck in Landscape mode

In Mail I am stuck in landscape mode. It will not rotate back to portrait regardless of what I do. I can not find any icon that indicates that it is locked in landscape. All of my other apps will rotate correctly, it is only the mail client that is locked in landscape.
Any suggestions?

Since last night, my phone is launching in landscape mode and will not rotate to vertical mode no matter what I do. It seems as if the Desk Cradle - which I never use - has taken over my phone, and even when I shut it down, the screen stays stuck in landscape mode. Really don't want to do a hard reset, especially if it won't resolve the problem, so would love some guidance here on possible causes and solutions. Thanks in advance for your help!
Don't be offended, and I know this sounds like a stupid question, but did you by chance turn off the auto rotation button? I couldn't get my phone out of landscape mode, then I finally thought to check the auto rotation button and it was off.

Curve 9380 - pulled?

Was the Curve 9380 just pulled from the market? (or just my carrier handing me a line?)
I have been trying to get this phone. My carrier thought they had one, turns out that one was cracked on the battery cover so they couldn't give it to me. They tried to order another one, & were told it was pulled from the market.
What is with that? Blackberry finally comes out with a competative,phone for the average person, & wham-o they pull it.
Makes it difficult to support this Canadian product.
If this has been pulled, will there be a replacement? I've been looking for a Blackberry, all-touch screen front (no keypad), with wi-fi (not requiring the data plan). Difficult to get! The Touch all touch, required the data plan.

Thanks for that info., much appreciated. That would explain it. My carrier is Bell.
My contract runs out this yr. As of last week, Telus was able to get one in for me ... if that is still the case when my contract is up, I plan to switch to Telus. It's an awesome phone for my needs.. I seriously hope Bell brings it back!
I have to wonder if the ability to use wifi on this phone, thus; having a regular mobile contract w/o data plan, is a reason they dropped the phone. They wouldn't make as much money on it. Which is too bad because if they put the phone out there, a lot of people will eventually go for the data plan even if they don't take it, at first. In the long run, it would be good.
I have been trying for mths to go Blackberry but it just isn't working in my favoure. I want a touch front (same as the 9380), & no data plan (use wifi). This is the first touch front, that had wifi & didn't require a data plan. No one wants to sell that sort of package anymore (without data). Too bad... but I just can't put $50 or $80 or $100 or more per mth., into a phone plan which is what a data plan would cost me.
bummer

Orientation Screen stuck upside-down and freezing

iPhone 6 Plus on iOS 8
My phones home screen flips upside down when the orientation moves around then freezes in that orientation. It also happens while in the messaging app when it goes in landscape mode. They only way I can get t back to normal is by shutting my phone down then turning it back on. Help!
Im wondering if this issue is a software problem/bug or a hardware problem?

I have been having this same issue repeatedly for the past few days as well. My home screen as well as other apps like safari or messages also get stuck in landscape mode or upside down after unlocking my phone. Since this issue is not isolated, Apple needs to address it with an update if it is just a software issue. This is certainly annoying, and it is ruining my user experience.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8, Updated to iOS 8.0.2
