Yoga 8 (B6000) bug auto-rotation after launcher update

Today I made the update of the lenovo launcher (by the way, I have th chinese version of the tablet), the auto-rotation doesn't work and it tells me at start-up that the apk (of the launcher I guess) is not compatible with my device...
The rotation works once an app is launched but not directly from the launcher...
Does anyone experience the same issue?

I suppose you speek about the update available on http://launcher.lenovo.com/launcher/portal.php . The website is only in chinese, so I thing only chinese people can help you.
What is the purpose of this update ?

Yoga 2 Pro Auto-Rotate Disabled (button is gray) on Win 10

Hi all, Upgraded my Yoga 2 Pro to Win 10 today, and the auto-rotate feature stopped working. The enable auto-rotate button on Win 10 is disabled, and in the display settings, the auto-rotate is switched on, but this doesn't make a difference. Don't know if the problem is with Lenovo or Microsoft, but would appreciate any help I can get...

Folks - any of you restored back to windows 8 to see if it still works? I did after my win 10 upgrade (with no rotation) and to my dismay, rotation no longer works in the factory image. I spoke to Lenovo and they are treating it like a hardware failure (apparently the factory reimage is the smoking gun for them). I'm starting to wonder if the Win 10 upgrade could have hosed the sensor!? FWIW - I have installed windows 10 about 5 times now on my Yoga 2 Pro, and in every case, the rotation lock function appears as a option (after the graphics drivers are updated by windows update) and pressing the button causes the on screen display to indicate that the autorotate is being toggled.

Yoga 2 Pro Went DEAD After BIOS Update

Had a horrible experience .. with good ending ... when upgrading Bios for my Yoga 2 Pro. So I'd like to share with others. I bought my Yoga 2 Pro last June (Man 3/22/14) and love it! But, it had problem restarting automatically after Windows Update. At least 3 times (That I can recall. Did not use it briefly from June 30 - July 22), the screen reminding user not to shutdown after Windows the update would stay on until I manually powered it down and restarted it. Last July 23, it did again after Windows Update. Searched Lenovo web-site and found a Bios Update for Yoga 2 Pro (Win 8.1 64-bit). Downloaded the new Bios (dated July 11, 2014) and went through the instruction striclty. First of, the screen responses were not at all as detailed in the instruction. So, the instruction is not very good. Received 2 warnings: Make sure the laptop is connected to the charger during the procedure, and the bios is for Yoga 2 Pro ONLY do not install it on any other models. As part fo the procedure, the laptop switched to a Bios Utility program. Again received the aforementioned warnings. Update progress was shown on the screen. All of a sudden, then screen went blank and the keyboard stayed lit. Waited for about 30 minutes. Still the same. Press and held the power button down (not sure for how long) ... nothing! Just no response from the latop. Called Tech support. She (the tech support lady) said that ... it is not recommended for user to go through the BIOS upgrade! What? Then why post it on Lenovo.com? She also said that I should not have downloaded software from the internet and upgrade, especially for BIOS. Well, I told her that I did not download the program from ANY web-site, I downloaded it from LENOVO.com. She said further that looks like the BIOS update had damaged my mother-board, there is a problem with Win 8 & 8.1, and because it was my own doing ... the damage would not be covered by the warranty! Considering the circumstance, Lenovo would waiver the initial $99 fee to assess the damage, but I would have to pay for any repair costs. In any case, I was so fumed at Lenove Tech Support responses that I hung up. close my laptop and put it aside. Almost 24 hours later, when the battery drained completely, I connected the laptop to the charger, press the power button to turn it on ... and ... to my surprise, the laptop booted and everything came back normal! The last (7/25) auto restart seemed to go well. Not sure if the auto restart problem is fixed with the new BIOS, but it seems to be. Time will tell.

Thank you for your posting. I searched the net when I ran into the problem, but could not find any help. Obviously, my search was not exhaustive. I was trying to make the following: a. Lenov should be more specific in their BIOS update instruction. Their instruction was ... far ... far from reality. b. Lenovo tech assistance was ... not much help. After listening to the description of my prolem, the tech lady immediately said that the operation must have damaged the mother-board, and that the operation is not ... recommended. No guidance on draining the battery a or how to restart the machine, etc... What I received was confusing that caused more panic! As a note, I had done BIOS upgrade on DELL PC/laptop before w/o any problem. I fully understand the implication of a BIOS upgrade, but trusted that manufacturer fully tested whatever that they post in their web-site. Oh well, live ... and learn! All in all, the Yoga 2 Pro is a great machine and I love it! Hope that anyone who runs into the same problem will be able to get the needed help in time! Cheers,

Bc4j bug at refresh after insert / update

having a table and a trigger on it that fills an attribute
in a 9i db. one can take the scott/tiger emp table and use the
following trigger:
create or replace trigger t_bri_emp
before insert on emp
for each row
declare
v_no number(7,2);
begin
select user_SEQ.nextval*100
into v_no
     from dual;
:new.sal := v_no;
end;
then creating a bc4j project with an entity object based on this table (emp)
and a view object based on the created entity object.
!!!! when you create the bc4j project you must set the SQL Flavor to SQL92 or OLite
when you set the attribute settings, for the attribute the trigger is on (sal),
to refresh after insert / update or both in the entity object you get a
null pointer when you try to insert a new row and commit.
java.lang.NullPointerException
     oracle.jdbc.ttc7.TTIoac oracle.jdbc.ttc7.TTCAdapter.newTTCType(oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBType)
     oracle.jdbc.ttc7.NonPlsqlTTCColumn[] oracle ....................
all can be reproduced just useing the wizard and start the bc4j project with the tester
any workaround ??

Sven:
I looked into your issue. It turns out your problem is caused by a bug in the system (bug #2409955).
The bug is that for non-Oracle SQLBuilder, we are not processing refresh-on-insert and refresh-on-update attributes correctly. We end up forming an invalid SQL statement and the JDBC driver gives the obscure NullPointerException.
Thus, until 9.0.3, you should not use refresh-on-insert/update attributes on a non-Oracle SQLBuilder.
If you need the refresh-on-insert/update attribute, here is a possible workaround:
1. Whenever you invoke the tester, on the first panel, click on the 'Properities' tab. In the list of properties, you should find one for 'jbo.SQLBuilder'. It will say 'SQL92'. Remove it, so that it is empty. Run test tester. Then, the tester will use Oracle SQLBuilder which will handle refresh-on-insert/update attributes correctly for you.
2. For switching between Oracle SQLBuilder and SQL92 SQLBuilder, you can try the following:
2a) Locate bc4j.xcfg and your Project??.jpx under your 'src' directory.
2b) Make copies of these files.
2c) Edit them so that you have one set for Oracle SQLBuilder and one set for SQL92 SQLBuilder. For Oracle SQLBuilder, make sure these files do NOT have entries like:
<jbo.SQLBuilder>..</jbo.SQLBuilder> in bc4j.xcfg and
<Attr Name="_jbo.SQLBuilder" Value="..." /> in Project??.jpx
When there is no jbo.SQLBuilder entry, BC4J will default to Oracle.
For SQL92, make sure you have
<jbo.SQLBuilder>SQL92</jbo.SQLBuilder> in bc4j.xcfg and
<Attr Name="_jbo.SQLBuilder" Value="SQL92" /> in Project??.jpx.
Before you run, decide which SQLBuilder to use (for 9.0.2, with retrieve-on-insert/update attrs, you have no choice but to use Oracle SQLBuilder) and copy these files into your class path, e.g.,
<jdev-install-dir>\jdev\mywork\Workspace1\Project1\classes
When you get 9.0.3, then you should be able to switch between Oracle and SQL92 SQLBuilders freely.
Thanks.

Module 'asus-nb-wmi' stopped being auto-loaded after kernel update

Well, the module 'asus-nb-wmi' which takes care of some FN keys and keyboard backlight stopped being auto-loaded after the latest kernel udpate (3.9.3), so I had to add it to /etc/modules-load.d/ to get it working. This has happened before, between kernel updates and I had to re-install arch to fix it, but now I found that manually adding the module is a nice solution, but I want it to be loaded automatically or at least know why does this happen. Kernel modules, such as this one, should be loaded automatically right?
Best regards.
Last edited by DanielRS (2013-07-04 19:54:48)

I think there is a valid question here; Same thing happened to me.
Upon a default install of arch, the module was auto-loaded without the user touching any configuration files
at some point during kernel updates, the module is no longer auto-loaded
the user then has to find out what is happening and go add the module to the appropriate config file to force load on boot.
So the larger question is; without config files being taken into consideration, how does the kernel decide what modules to load? f
I know it has something to do with the hardware that it detects, but am unaware if this is something within the RC or systemctl booting system, or if this is part of the kernel.
I'm going to dig around some more on the internet, as i'm sure the answer is out there somewhere.. but if someone that is on this forum happens to read and know the answer, it would be nice to know
thanks

My iPhone 6 will not auto rotate after installation of version 8.0.2. The auto rotate lock is off in settings and in the Kindle app, but nothing will go to landscape.

Since the installation of 8.0.2 my iPhone 6 will not auto rotate in any app. I have locked/unlocked the feature in settings several times using the command bar but to no avail. I read using the Kindle app and it also is locked in portrait whether the lock is on or off.

Your auto lock got turned on. Swipe up on the screen and tap the upper right icon. This will allow it to work again!
Actually, the OP tried that (six months ago) and it didn't work. They resolved the issue (six months ago) by updating their system software (six months ago).

Auto Rotate after cropping

I did a pretty tight constrained crop and rotated the crop box. Everything worked fine, but the image was not auto-rotated. Even when I printed on my photo printer it did not rotate properly. I had to manually rotate the photo to get it to work.
Has anyone else seen this? Should I report it to Apple?

Sorry for the confusion, let me be more specific.
The photo consisted of a bunch of people in landscape mode.
I cropped tightly around one of the individuals and rotated the crop box to portrait mode.
I "applied" the crop and clicked done.
The now-portrait mode crop is being displayed in the library as a landscape photo. (i.e, the person is now laying on their side.)
I had to manually rotate the photo to get the orientation correct.
Does that make it more clear?

HP Stream 7 - No auto rotation after win 10 upgrade

I did find it under there and it works - if I wanted to stay in one position. Give us a toggle to choose between portrait or landscape until they get the auto rotate to work like I have on my TPT2. What I don't like on the stream (and my TPT2) now is that in both portrait and landscape mode, scrolling is vertical not horizontal. Also, there is only one column and wastes a lot of the screen apps could be pinned. I know i can get used to the scrolling but the amount of screen that is unutilized in portrait mode needs to be addressed somehow. I still think overall its a welcome improvement.

i have an Envy and a Toshiba Satellite, both are giving me migranes. i am ready to downgrade back to 8.1 so that i can enjoy flipping my screen. i was looking forward to this for so long just for the xbox app, streaming, and recording, but i also like to lay on my couch and prefer to use my touch screens as a 'tent' or just folder under so that the face of the laptop is towards me. microsoft needs to get on this asap, because basically what tgey did is alienate everyone who doest have a surface or detatchable keyboard. AND SPEAKING OF KEYBOARD!!! i dont appreciate that the virtual keyboard is basically non existant! I have only been able to get it to work in chrome automatically, otherwise i have to keep pressing the keyboard button. so annoying.

Yoga 2 Pro: No display after Windows Update failed.

Last night windows 8.1 tried to update 7 updates when I restarted my Yoga 2 Pro laptop. The update hung on on the first update. In the morning when I started up, there was no display. When I plugged it into an external display only that display worked.
I have tried refreshing windows with no luck.
A Lenovo Solution Centre scan of the hardware fails all Video Card tests, with the Result code: WVC007000-DJ7X1I
(not sure what this means).
What do I do next? I am away on business on Monday and need this fixed before then. Any ideas?
Cheers

Can you reboot into safe mode? That runs a more generic video driver. If so, you can try uninstalling the video driver then reinstalling it from the Lenovo web site.

New keypress bug in N95 after v12 update + other b...

Update v12 has rendered the whole phone practically useless. It misses keypresses - that is what is well known in this firmware, BUT the major pain in the **bleep** is that the end-call button doubles as a 9 on keypad and vice versa.
I cannot press n.9 on keypad cause it automatically closes the application (like sms editor) when pressed.
I can not dial numbers containing n. 9 , can not text messages etc...
Thanks nokia for this fw - really!
Did I mention that it also loses the microphone of my stannard handsfree (wired).
It also boots about 3-6 times a day.
Only thing that's improved an works (kinda cos' i can't type street names) is the gps.

This is really starting to bug me!
I tried to fix the odd behaviour via hard reset (green + 3 + *) the result being:
Cannot restore backup from sdcard - all of my contacts, messages are gone 4 good!
It just hangs up and reboots if i try to restore backup.
This is just splendit!

Envy x2 auto-rotate does not work, after upgrading to windows 10. And touchpad gestures

I have installed the latest HP Support Assistant for windows 10 and I have installed the updates Intel Virtual Button DriverHP System Event Utility Updates failed to install without giving reason: Intel Serial I/O driver Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) Driver In display settings I have checked the box of "Allow the screen to auto-rotate" In Windows Update I have updated with Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3074678)Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3074676)Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3081424) In Device Manager under Sensors HID Sensor Collection V2, working properlySdo Sensor V2, working properly I have done deleting these devices and reinstalling them In User Account I have created a new user with password. Auto-rotate did not work in that user But all these have not worked. Please find a solution for me. About the TouchPad gesture: swipping inside from the left use to switch app, now does not work.swipping inside from the right use to bring out charm bar/ action centre, now does not work

Yes. I found the answer here:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video/HP-Envy-x2-13-j020CA-Windows-10-Auto-Rotate-Autorotate-now/m-p/5212887#M115445I've tried replacing the driver on Sdo Sensor V2 device with the Simple Device Orientation Sensor and rotation works just like it did on 8.1.For the record - Sdo Sensor v2 reports the device orientation continiously, and Simple Device Orientation Sensor reports it only when the orientation changes. Must be a Windows bug then.

IPod in recovery mode after installing update!!!

I connected my 30 gig, 5th gen. iPod to my computer, and it recognized it. I clicked on 'check for update', of which there was one, ironically described as "bug fixes". After the update, my iPod restarted itself and is now in recovery mode. However, when I look under 'My Computer', it still recognizes my iPod by the name I gave it, and all of my photos are still intact and viewable in this mode. I have tried changing the drive letter and reinstalling iTunes, but both my iPod and iTunes are still giving me the recovery mode message.

Funny you should say that, and i'm so glad that i looked in here, as i first thought that it was something that i had done wrong, but now i am starting to wonder.
I have a similar problem with the 30gb ipod, i loaded everything ok onto my computer, even got to put some music on my ipod!
the next day i decided to re-arrange some tracks and remove some music that i no longer listen to. at this point I also recieved the update called "bug fixes" and since then the actual ipod says to connect to my computer and use itunes to restore, I have done this, and itunes goes through the process of restoring, says it has finished, and as soon as the ipod icon re-appears, it says that my ipod is in recovery mode and i need to restore.
I have done this now about 20 times, and i have tried various procedures that have been suggested on the web page, which includes removing and re-installing itunes, assign a new drive letter to the ipod, reinstalling the drivers.
I have tried everything that i can find with any relevance, but as i am not an IT technician, i dont want to keep trying things that i don't really understand.
Please help, as I want to listen to my music on this expensive music player, like i should be able to!
thanks in advance

How come auto-rotate sometimes works, and then stops working until i reboot?

I am going to be as specific as possible simply because some people seem to have similar problems, but mostly they just can't get it to rotate. I have a 6, and for whatever reason it is finicky with auto rotating after going into an app. Say i am in messages in portrait mode and i exit in portrait mode. When i go back in in landscape mode it won't rotate without me first putting the phone into portrait, allowing the gyro (or whatever controls this) to reset, and then rotating it back to landscape. However, if i reboot the phone, it will work without issue for a short while, automatically detecting which mode it's in and adjusting itself accordingly, until it stops working again. This happens with most pre-installed apps like Messages, Safari, and Mail. Any help would be appreciated. I also get freeze ups from time to time while typing, where the screen isn't responsive at all after switching modes, so i have to rotate, and then back again to get the keyboard to accept entries.

The issue turned out to be the mouse. It was somehow shorting the USB ports. I tried a different mouse from restart rather than only after the problem began.

Make XFCE4 desktop picture auto-rotate

I have a friend that would like to have his XFCE4 desktop picture auto-rotate based on updated images from a website. It's this one specifically ...
http://www.goes.noaa.gov/ak3.html
Can I do this with a script? An app? If I wget the picture every 5 or 10 minutes and set it as the background, that would work perfect, but I don't know where to start. Maybe there's an option in feh? Just thinking at this point ... what should I do?

You could use wget as a crontab job, replacing the same file and restarting feh to refresh the background.
I'm sketching the codes here, but does the image name changes when the image does? Right now it's "ALWV.JPG", but will it change along with the new image?
[EDIT] Sorry, I didn't see the XFCE part. So you don't have to use feh to manage your background, thus making life easier.
Here it is:
Execute this once:
wget http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GIFS/ALWV.JPG
Now you have a ALWV.JPG somewhere in your home directory (probably). Find it and set it as the default XFCE4 background image through the common configuration programs. Do not change the file name.
Run this with bash:
crontab -e
This will take you to the crontab file. Append this line:
*/10 * * * * wget -m -nd http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GIFS/ALWV.JPG & killall -USR1 xfdesktop
And change the 10 to whatever time you want. Save and exit.
Now, every 10 minutes, crontab will fetch the image and restart the XFCE wallpaper program, making it reload the new one.
The "-m -nd" options state that the program will compare image timestamps, download if newer and overwrite the old file.
If any problem occurs, please report. I couldn't test it here.
