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.

Can you not find it under
settings > Phone > Sensor settings > Turning Control? If you can't find there then maybe reinstall the firmware.
Good luck

Yoga 13: HID Sensor Collection : Auto-rotate functionality

Hi Guys,
I bought the Yoga 13 with Windows 8 but the non pro version. I wanted the pro version on so I can connect to a domain so I did a clean install - where I deleted the partition with the old OS.
Everything went great and all drivers that were are on the other partition that I left alone installed fine.
Here is the problem: I noticed that the auto-rotate functionality no longer works. After doing some research I found that the HID Sensor Collection is what controls this. If I look at the device manager I can see that their is a exclamation point next to the HID Sensor Collection Driver along with the Light Sensor driver.
They both give me the error:
This device cannot start (Code 10).
The process hosting the driver for this device has terminated.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver - this didn't help.
I've tried searching for this driver online - no luck.
I tried using the "update driver software" and it says: Windows has determined that your driver software for this device is up to date.
Any ideas how I can get the HID Sensor Collection working?
Thanks for your help!

I had excatly the same problem after Windows 8 Pro N 64bit install, the device manager showed HID Sensor Collection and Light Sensor with exclamation points.
I found out that this might have something to do with Windows User Mode Driver Framework, Windows Media Player contains and utilises it. As Windows 8 Pro N didn't contain Media player, I downloaded it as Media Feature Pack from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30685. After the install HID Sensor Collection and Light Sensor were fine. Also Simple Device Orientation Sensor appeared.

(snip) shall any one from nokia reply our inquiries, why the update is still not officially released ?
Whilst it would be nice for a reply from Nokia - this forum from Nokia is a One-Way Conversation with them - they "sometimes" read but dont ever reply, as this is designed to be a Peer-to-peer forum, so the only replies you'll get are from interested/well informed users, and may not be gospel truth.
They choose not reply which can frustrate most new users, the older ones tend to just put up with it. /end
The online code number checker is sometimes behind. When the release is official, then it normally appears on this page: http://www.nokia.co.uk/link?cid=EDITORIAL_799361 as have all the other updates.
When it does you will, depending on if your handset has a branded specific software, be able to download and install it, when its released for your product code. Until then you have to sit tight.
I dont know why some service points have it, perhaps they have it for beta testers or something. I know I use every function on my phone and if there is a fault in the software I'm highly likely to find it. Unless they are adding more stuff into the N95 the current V20 performs pretty well.

hi...
I understand your predicament... Its awful 2 experience such a thing.
By the way, i am also using n95 v21 and a sandisk 4gb card.
If i understand it right, after you updated your firmware, you restored the back up settings. And you also mentioned that problem only occurs when you are inserting the memory card.
It doesn't necessarily mean that your memory card is faulty. When i still have v12 and i updated it to v20, i was using a 2gb and it happened to me, so what I did was 2 copy the files stored in my memory card to computer, put back mmc to n95, format mmc and then manually copy back my files from computer to n95/mmc. And it worked for me!
Hope this works for you too.

Definitely a no brainer!
I find it very odd that a sandisk class 6 card is cheaper than a sandisk class 4 card???
Of course it's odd!
I think the answer is just that prices are quickly dropping, especially on newer models, and the "class 4" prices are just "old" prices of items already in stock.
The italian online-shop site I was browsing (a reliable site, AFAIK), looking for the card, sells "class 4" for 39,49 euros and "class 6" for 35,89 euros.
And it seems they just retouched the higher price: just a couple of days ago, on the same site, "class 4" model price was about 45 euros! I think now they are trying to sell all "class 4" they have in stock, whereas they say they have no "class 6" in stock at the moment (I could just order it).
Thanks everybody for the clarifications.

Thanks....now its sitting at nokia care with the promise that they want to change the mother board. Still waiting.....

Auto rotate on iphone 5

It seems like the auto rotate function on the iphone 5 is not very responsive. It's unlocked, so that is not it. Anyone else having this issue?

you do it from control centre

Twist - Auto-rotate sticks in protrait

If I enable auto rotate with the twist in laptop confiiguration, and rotate it sideways, it will not return to either landscape orentation. You can flip portrait either way. putting it in tablet more sometimes fixes it, but sometimes the touchpad ends up 90 degrees off, and a powerdown is the only recovery.

I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but after I turned off auto-rotation by pressing Windows Key + o (the letter, not the number), I "manually" rotate the screen orientation by right-clicking on the desktop --> Graphic Options --> Rotation --> then choose from "Normal" (i.e., laptop); 90 Degrees; 180 Degrees; or 270 Degrees, and it seems to stick. (The Ctrl+Arrow key combination never worked for me.)
Turning off Auto-Rotation while in Laptop mode:
From the desktop, I just used Windows Key + o until the "Autorotate off" message appeared onscreen.
Alternatively, you can press Windows Key +x --> Control Panel --> Hardware and Sound --> Display --> Change Display Settings --> remove the checkmark from the "Allow the Screen to auto-rotate" box --> Click OK
To Right-Click the desktop "by touch" (e.g., you're already in Tent Mode and the orientation is wrong, and it's awkward to try to use the keyboard):
Press and hold your finger on the desktop and a square will appear. Remove your finger from the desktop and the right-click menu will appear, then touch Graphic Options --> Rotation --> then choose 180 Degrees.
Updated: Just realized that switching to Tent Mode doesn't turn auto-rotate back on, but if I collapse my screen down into Tablet Mode from Tent Mode, when the screen is about an inch from touching the keyboard, auto-rotate comes back on automatically. Still, if I press the auto-rotate button above the power button to turn auto-rotate off, when I "manually" adjust the rotation of the screen, it stays in place. But when I raise the lid again to go back into Laptop Mode, auto-rotation comes back on by itself.
I'd love to find out how to disable whatever turns on the auto-rotation function when the screen is in a certain position.

Portege Z10T and Win7 - cannot get the screen to auto rotate

Hi
I have installed windows 7 to a Portege z10t and cannot get the screen to auto rotate when flipped to portrait and landscape, I have had a look at the intel graphics properties and cant find anywhere their to configure this any ideas and have googled it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi
Are you sure that you have installed all essential Toshiba tools and utilities as well as Win 7 drivers for this Portege Z10T series?
Toshiba EU driver page provides the essential software like *Tablet Easy Control.*
This utility is necessary for the auto rotation function of the Tablet PC.
I would recommend you to check if all software available on Toshiba EU driver page has been installed and run properly on your notebook

Auto rotate does not work

The auto rotate function does not work on my iPad. I have tried the the mute / rotate switch, swiping to the far left at the bottom of the home page and rebooting. Nothing is working. Are there any other steps I could try or should I be taking the iPad in for service?

Does your iPad show the lock in a circular arrow symbol in the top of the screen next to the battery level?
First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Annoying fact: N97 auto rotate while making phone ...

While you are in a conversation and you look back at the screen, you want to press hold,loudspeaker, cut off line or other in call function, the phone will auto rotate to landscape mode, which is very annoying, since the buttons layout will be different and will cause delay.
On the iphone, this auto rotate function is switched off during conversation, which is very practical.
Is there a function on the N97 to turn off the auto rotate during call conversation WHILE the general auto rotate function is switched on in Settings?

Just tried it on fw v2.0, it still rotates during a phone call and there is no option to turn auto-rotation off during phone calls.
I found this design flaw in the UI very annoying. The phone rings, you pull it out of your pocket to answer and the screen rotates to landscape, and let's face it the N97 is not the snappiest phone so I missed a few calls waiting for the screen orientation to get itself sorted. I ended up just turning auto-rotation off, it will still change to landscape orientation when you open the keyboard.
*** Any Nokia employees reading this please forward this issue to the N97 team so that for the next fw update they can either turn auto-rotation off when receiving/during a phone call or include an option for this. ***

Disabling the auto rotation while doing OCR

It does this to improve the OCR but if you can choose Searchable Image (Exact) under the PDF Output Style in the Recognize Text - General Settings dialog it won't deskew the image.

Nokia 5800 v21.0.25 Auto-Rotate issue (firmware re...

Hi,
After updating OTA to the lastest firmware Auto-Rotate display stopped working. When i first installed the new FW I had issue with the home screen. It kept blinking like every 1 sec between homescreen and appication screen. This is when I noticed that I cannot reinstall the FW from either NSU or OTA(I suppose it has been pulled of due to some problem for this model). I was luckily able to soft-reset the phone which fixed the home screen blinking, but the Auto-rotate doesn't work anymore. Sensor seems to be ok since step counter is working, muting the phone call and snoozing alarm works
Now I'm pretty annoyed since I can't reinstall the software and this is my only phone at the moment so I have to loan some phone from somewhere in order to the this to the service.
So be carefull with the new firmware.
Solved!

You cannot reinstall OTA updates because they only work from version A to version B. Your phone now has version B on it already.
I've read that 5800s don't have NSU available for v21 yet, but I guess it's just a matter of time, then you can reinstall as many times as you like!
Thanks for the tip though. I don't use the auto-rotate or motion sensor at all, so I'll be updating just to get the improved Touch that's apparently coming.
I believe that if you have one version installed, and it is the latest one, you can reinstall it using NSU. I'm not sure how it works if you updated OTA vs NSU, though.
