N82 Auto Rotate (Accelerometer) Problem !

Anyone has problem with auto rotate? My N82 its kinda very hard to auto rotate. I do know it will not rotate on stand by screen and only rotate anti clock wise. The phone is just 2 weeks old, the auto rotate just work fine for the first week. Suddenly i notice when i rotate the phone, the display won't rotate. I need to shake the phone very hard then it will rotate. At first i think maybe its because by 3rd party application, so i decided to upgrade the firmware so it will remove all data and fix the problem. But there were no upgrade available, so i decided to reinstall the firmware. After done reinstall the firmware, i found out the problem still there. Than i remember that N82 will preserve all user data. So the 3rd party apps still there. So i remove all the apps manually and then restart the phone. But the auto rotate still had the problem. So i think maybe its related to memory because i restore all the messages and contacts from my old N73. So i delete all the messages and contacts and restart the phone, but still the same. Than i call NOKIA helpline to ask about the problem. They suggest me to full format without preserve user data and only NOKIA care center can do that. So the next day i went to nearest NOKIA care center to get my phone full format. But after almost 2 hours waiting, i collected my phone and get it tested there. But the auto rotate still problem. I so frustrated, so i ask the technician there about the problem. They said its work fine when they just finished format it. They said maybe its hardware problem. They ask me to go to the HQ b'coz they do not have the tool and parts to repair it and it will took ages to wait. So then again the next day i went to HQ to get my phone checked. I arrived there around 5pm. They say, its kinda late and i need to leave my phone there to get it checked. They said if i came earlier i can get my phone checked and fixed within the same day. So, i leave my phone there and they kinda promise me that my phone will get fixed the next day. The next day before i go to pick up my phone i call them to check the status off my phone, they said they haven't check my phone yet. It's already 2PM, and i ask when my phone will get fixed, they said they cant be sure and they will call me later. After done talking with them, i get dressed and drove there to ask personally about my phone. I cant wait any longer. I just bought the phone only for 2 weeks and haven't finish and bored played with it yet. So i arrived there around 3:30PM. So i ask them about my phone, they said it cant be done by today because they already had my phone disassembled and need to wait for the parts. When i heard about my phone had been disassembled, my heart it like had been crushed. There goes my money, i felt so frustrated and its just a waste of money to buy that phone. They didn't even bother to replace the phone and get me to wait and for how long i don't even know. And now i am so **bleep** off after they had wasted my MONEY / TIME / ENERGY / EFFORT.
I am still waiting from NOKIA about my phone and like to know if any of you guys here had the same problem?

I do not fully understand the word "lethargic". I know its not will be perfect, but my N82 do not auto-rotate at all. Like i said, i need to shake it very hard to make it auto-rotate. If its only me, why NOKIA has to disassembled the phone and replace the motherboard. Thats what make me felt frustrated. I just bought the phone for 2 weeks. The phone its not cheap, and i am not rich you know.
About going or taking it to service center. Its not i don't like to go there or their service is bad. The thing is, i have to go there 3 times and still my phone don't get fixed. And then i need to wait and i do not know for how long i must wait. Again, like i said. My phone is new and only 2 weeks old. I don't get to play much with it and had to send for service. Why don't they just replace the phone with new one. I still have other work to do other than going to service center.
Again, again and again. Why i must do all this for a new phone?
I think anyone will agree with me about this.

N82 auto rotate

I'm sure the point at which the screen rotates has changed since I got this phone. When I'm holding the phone horizontally, I don't have to tilt it back up by very much before the screen rotates back, making showing off my pictures a but awkward. Is it possible for this to change? Is there anything I can do about this?

You can also use an app called 'Rotate Me' which does the same, although you can adjust the sensitivity of that.

IOS 8.3 and the auto rotation of the screen problem?

I upgraded to IOS 8.3 and the auto rotation of the screen has stopped working on my iPad Air 2, has anyone else got this problem?

By Control Centre I meant swipe up from the bottom of the screen to bring up Control Centre. In there you will find the rotation lock symbol (a padlock with a circular arrow round it). Make sure that is turned OFF

[iPhone] auto-rotation problems

I'm having a really tough time getting auto-rotation to work properly.
My biggest problem is most of my application only works in Portrait mode, but there is one view (with subviews) and a controller that handles landscape (it displays an image). When I rotate the device to landscape mode while this view is up, then cause this controller to pop back to the previous controller (a navigation controller), the rest of the interface is now in landscape mode instead of portrait, which is messing up my other portrait only views. I expected that popping my landscape-supporting controller would revert the interface to portrait, since none of the other controllers support landscape.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
And is there a way to "force" the device into landscape mode when a landscape image is selected? See I have a image picker controller (portrait), and when I pick a landscape image I'd ideally like to just have my image viewer (and subviews) show up in landscape mode - like how Movie Player does it.
I know this is possible, but I haven't figured out how yet.

I am having the same problem that you have descibed below. Did you ever find a solution? I have tried all types of possible solutions but cannot get the previous view to revert back to portrait as well.

Auto Rotate problems when shooting tethered overhead

I am shooting with a Canon 5d mark 2. When I shoot product into the auto rotate works properly and the image appears rotated properly. Although when I shoot overhead or down on product it seems to get confused. If I rotate the camera twords the horizon and fire it figures out which way it should be the I can reframe my overhead shot. But if the camera is moved at all it will show up rotated the wrong way and I have to slightly move the camera away from its directly overhead framing again so it can figure out wich way it should be rotating. I have tried all three rotate modes with the camera with similar inconsitant results. What is the best setting on the camera to get consistant results. Or ii I turn auto rotate off is there a way to tell lightrroom to rotate it properly on import like it does for all other settings like white balance.

This isn't a function of tethering, I wouldn't think. Many cameras have a sensor that determines the orientation of images so auto-rotate works. The problem is that these sensors generally only work along one axis, using the force of gravity to tell them where down is. When you orient the camera such that the lens is pointing down most sensors no longer are able to determine whether you are in portrait or landscape, because there is no down -- it ends up being somewhat random.
I've seen this on many different cameras, and all without tethering. It has to do when the sensor is read when composing the short.
Your best bet is to set the camera to ignore the sensor when taking pics like this, and rotate the image by hand that are need to be in portrait. If there is no rotation in the image metadata, Lr will not rotate it. It will have to be done by hand. It won't be that hard to select a number of images and bulk rotate them.

5800 - Does new firmware fix auto-rotate problems ...

Ever since V 50.0.005 I've had problems with auto-rotate stopping working after a while (memory leak anyone ?) with a reboot being required to fix it. DAK if this is fixed in V 51.0.006 because if it is I'll go through the hassle of changing my product code to get it early as it's driving me nutzzzzz.

The real issue lies somewhere else.. atleast thats what I think because I did not face such problem on my Nokia 5800 xm with v 50.0.005. It was happenning just occassionaly and not so frequently or permanently as some posts suggest.
Auto rotate should work perfectly when the phone is held vertically.i.e. the top and bottom edges at same distance from the body.. Normaly when the phone is held in palm the bottom edge is nearer than the top edge as it is slanting. The feature will not work 100% in this condition...

Auto-rotate stops working, accellerometer is working fine?

Last night, I noticed that autorotate in
- Mobile Safari
- Coverflow
- Photos
on my iPhone are is/are no longer working. I was worried that the accelerometer might be broken, but I tried two games that make use of the accelerometer, and both are working fine - Marbles and Labyrinth. I haven't installed anything new since the last time I noticed it working - I think I've set up two imap accounts, and modified my EDGE network setting since, but no new apps.
Has anyone seen this problem? Are any jailbroken apps causing this? I've read about various "auto rotate" problems in these forums and elsewhere online in the past, and it's always assumed the accelerometer is no longer functioning, but as mentioned, it's working fine in some apps that make use of it, so it appears to be a software issue / bug. I will most likely send mine in for service / replacement, but before I do, I was wondering if anyone has any idea or reference about this being a software glitch. I haven't done a restore yet, just wanted to see if it's a problem anyone's seen yet.

I am having the same issue in Safari in a never jail-broken phone. I can launch Safari and when I rotate the phone horizontally, the screen remains vertical. I have been able to get it to rotate on a rare occasion, but then it will not rotate back to vertical unless I exit Safari and reopen it.

N82 screen rotate - carousel error

firmware 20.0.062 in N82
Problem: Every time i rotate my phone i have this error: Carousel error (-6) with beep sound (so it stops music playing) and it's really annoying. How to fix that problem, any ideas? (turning auto-rotation off is not an option of course).

Try factory Reset(*#7780#)which resets all settings to defaults but keeps any applications you have installed and photos etc. Both need the Security code, which, by default, is 12345.

Auto rotation is not working properly with iOS 7.1.2 upgrade

I recently upgraded my iPad to iOS 7.1.2 and noticed that auto rotation isn't functioning properly. How will this problem fix, will I have to wait till the next update ??
It takes too much time, or doesn't happen at all.
I have an iPad mini with retina display, 128GB storage.
Thanking you in anticipation .

Try a reset and see if it fixes the problem. You will not lose any data.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Auto-rotate is not working in my Nokia X6. Please ...

Hi. So I recently bought a Nokia X6, and everything seemed to work fine. However, just today the auto-rotate stopped working on my phone. I turned the sensors off and then turned them on again and it stopped working. What could be the reason?
Also, now when I turn my phone on, it just turns off again, and I need to turn it on again.
P.S: I don't know if this has an effect, but I was installing an app on my phone, when the battery went empty, and the phone turned off in the middle of the installation...
EDIT: Also, my phone gave me a "System error" message twice...

It's ok, I did a hard reset and everything is working fine now. I guess the problem was with the app that I installed. By the way, that app wasn't compatible with the phone, as the phone gave me a message that it isn't, and yet I insisted on installing it. So perhaps here lies the problem.

[FIX] Yoga 13 auto-rotates to portrait on startup after Win 8.1 upgrade

This was going to be a question post but I just stumbled across the answer on my own, so here's the solution instead!
After upgrading the Yoga 13 to Windows 8.1 through the Windows Store app, and even after installing all the new drivers, I found that every time I restarted when the lock screen came up it would suddenly rotate 90 degrees left to portrait mode. It would fix itself if I rotated the laptop or hit the hardware button to turn auto-rotate off and on again, but still kinda annoying.
So here's the fix:
-Seach for "local services" and open it up
-Scroll down to "Sensor Monitoring Service"
and double-click
-Mine had its startup type set to manual, change this to automatic
-Restart the computer
Note:
My Yoga was running a clean install of Windows 8 when I upgraded to 8.1, so I'm not sure if this applies to a Yoga with the factory install intact (or if it even gets this problem with the factory install, since I don't see any other posts about people having this problem).
Solved!
Go to Solution.

With a factory configuration the serivce is set to Manual, Trigger Start, and this config seems to work well...

N95 & Auto-Rotate Function in V21.0.016

Wife & I both have new N95's RM-159 from 3.
Firmware Version is V21.0.016 as mentioned in subject line.
What neither phone seems to have is the auto-rotate function. After hours of searcing I've been unbale to find out why with this version of the firmware this isn't supported on these phones. Under Display settings no mention of auto-rotate. I've checked software updater & am told the FW is the latest revision.
Do I need to install the accelerometer plugin to get this function to work as you have to do with rotateMe(c)Samir?
Any help would be appreciated before I ring 3 customer services and ask them why it isn't supported.
TIA.

Your phones are normal.
The N95 doesn't have that function as part of it's firmware. Only the N95 8GB has had this feature added in the v20 firmware.
The firmware on the N95 is not the same as the firmware on the N95 8GB.
It is rumoured that the feature will be in the next firmware release for the N95 which is due in the next few months.
So the only way to get auto rotate on the old N95 is to install a program like rotateme.

Has anyone experienced the mute switch / auto-rotate switch iOS bug on their ipad?

Has anyone experienced the mute switch / auto-rotate switch iOS bug on their ipad?
I have experienced this on iPad 1 as well as iPad 2.
Basically, when you set the side switch to toggle screen orientation (or mute), after a period of use I will have either my sound cease to function or the ipad screen will not orient correctly. This depends on what i have chosen the side switch to toggle. I am not sure what causes it. The time it takes for the problem to appear is inconsistent. Some say it is caused by third party applications.
One can find numerous threads on here if you search for "sound on my ipad stopped working" or "orientation not working". It appears to be the same problem. Fudging with the toggle switch settings can fix it (but it takes a weird order to get it out of its non functioning loop).
Here is a thread that addresses the sound issue: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15263298#15263298

Its only for notifications.. it is not for sound from videos or music!
