HI guys, i have looked everywhere so i ll try here maybe you can help...
My accelerometer is not working, i have the samsung galaxy ace s5830 and the autorotation is not working anymore, when i tried the sensor test it seems like its not working, i have tried hard reset already, my autorotation is on and when i try to calibrate the ball doesnt move, it stays in the center...
I've downloaded the logcat app and it writes in red:
E/SensorManager( 181) : +__poll_activate: handle=0 enabled=1
:ERROR Sensor Input doesnt not open events_fd=232 accel_fd=-1
:cannot find devnode accelerometer_sensor
and a lot of other things which look bad......
Thank you for your help..
bad problem
Try to reflash your phone. if it won't help your accelerometer probably is broken.
Hi all,
I know some of you faced similar problems with other phones in the past but I just wanna know if it is a software bug or an actual hardware issue so that I can return my handset and get it fixed.
Auto Rotate kinda acts strangely. Doesn't even respond properly and the orientation remains locked. I tried using different launchers hoping it would fix the issue somehow. Nothing seems to work and the strange thing is, while facing this issue, I opened CPU Z to check if the sensors are working properly or not but to my surprise, the sensors are not reading any data. After a restart, all seems to work fine including rotation. But again after a few hours, the same issue occurs. Any fix guys??

Is your smart rotate on? Switch it off to get normal rotation
I suppose factory reset is a last resort. If you still have issues exchange.
Same problem. Z3 autorotate stupidly (does not switch to landscape automatically and then when I want it back to portrait it remains landscape, have to disable rotation). By the way Smart Rotate feature is bugged.
@unmaskedfalesh yes....its turned on. Yet it doesnt work most of the times.
@bel57 yep dude...same problem here....
@abhinav.tella yes I will do that. thank you

I'm not sure if your"..." And statement were meant to be condescending but it came off that way. This suggestion was already made and it didn't help me, don't know about the others.
Hello,
i have issues with the Display Rotation.
The Accelerometer don´t work anymore at my phone. Last Week i was wondering that the Display won´t rotate at the Album. Then i checked the Display Settings. Auto Rotate was checked.
at the Service Menu *#*#7378423#*#* the Accelerometer don´t respond. But the Gyroscope work fine.
At this Time i have installed the Concept Software from Sony. Today i´m back home from Holiday i go back to offical Stock Software. But it won´t work also.
Smartrotate on or off are the same...
The last idea is to repair the Software with the PC Companion. Is there an option to calibrate the Accelerometer?
I have the same issues with my D6653 - auto rotation doesn't work (but very rarely it does come back). In service menu the Accelerometer doesn't respond, as well as Proximity switch is off and doesn't work on calls.
This is not a rom-specific problem as I've tried to revert back to stock firmware but alas no changes. It must be some miscommunication between hardware and software.
Any ideas what to do? Can it be related to kernel?
yesterday i've had the same problem i needed to wipe to have the accelerometer back to work
Hi all rather than opening a new thread I am upping this one
On my D6603 screen rotation is very erratic and often not working.
Any idea what I can investigate?
I wander if it could be app/service related of hardware deficiency.
Thanks!
Any luck with this?
I am currently using an EM95X Android Box with a Viewsonic touch screen. The touch screen has been working perfect with the box. My issue is with the rotation ability. Anytime I force the screen into portrait mode the system UI crashes. Unfortunately, I need the monitor view to be vertical. I cannot figure out how to stop it from crashing. I have tried several rotation apps with the same results.
I have went into the build prop to view the rotation texts and the only thing I have found is this:
"Persist.sys.app.rotation=middle_port"
I thought I might be able to find somewhere I can change the rotation, but I have not.
Any suggestions?
I just purchased my Samsung galaxy S7 yesterday and the screen rotation worked fine until today, the screen rotation did not work at all so I started looking for a way to fix it(factory reset, restart, making sure I had auto rotation activated, tried scanning the gyroscope sensor but it failed) without having to make my own post but here we are, what do you think I can do to fix this?
As its a day old I would return the phone to the store. you've done more than I would have if it's that new.
Looks like a hardware issue, since it exists even after a restart.
do check your rotation setting
Hi guys wonder if u can help me please. There might already be a topic regarding this. But I can't seem to get auto rotate working. Wonder if u guys can tell me why please.
Did you try toggling the auto-rotate icon in QuickSettings?
Yes i have done that. I've G Calibrated and done a factory reset. Still the same. Worked fine till the other day.
Just to update. I've managed to sort the issue by tapping the phone twice on my hand.and now it rotates again weird but it works. Read it on a site and tried it and it works don't no why
Hmmm . . . sounds like a hardware issue. Reminds me of the sporadic vibration on my M9 that could be "reset" by banging the phone, at least until it died completely.
I accidentally dropped my phone, 3 days after having it, and it stopped auto rotating, also the double tap to wake stopped as well. Noticed in camera the icons wouldn't rotate. I did the old 6inch drop onto its corner on carpet and it recalibrated the sensor and it worked again.
