What rom are you using. Maybe you don't have that feature turned on.
Chimaira Android 4.0.4 (Beta2)

It's stock GB 2.3.6 I didn't change any settings

Have you looked to see if you accidentally turned off screen rotation? Go to the notification area pull the bar down and on the far right on the top you should see a button that says screen rotation is it green or greyed out if it is green your screen rotation is turned on if not it isn't. Good luck hope I helped out.

Two weird problems

When I started using my Charge today, I discovered two odd problems with it.
Firstly, when I press the lock button (from a locked state), the screen starts dim and then brightens. When the screen is dim, it is completely unresponsive until it brightens about a second later. This isn't particularly horrible, but it is kind of annoying.
Second, I can't rotate my phone anymore. I've checked the settings and the notification tray and they both have auto rotate enabled. It isn't tied to any app as it happens accross the phone.
Both of these issues started today and I didn't make any big changes to my phone. I'm running GummyCharged 1.9.1 (flashed the full Odin) and I'm planning on just flashing it again if no one has any ideas to fix this. Thanks for any help!

The dim would appear to be normal as my phone does it as well although I wouldn't say it takes a full second before its responsive.
As for auto rotate, try deleting ms3c_yamaha.cfg from /data/system and reboot.

I added .bak to the end of the file, rebooted, and both problems are fixed. The screen is still dim and then brightens upon hitting the lock button, but it is now immediately responsive.
Thanks for the help!

Zeus problem when charging

Hey I have Zeus installed I just have a question I cannot change the status bar settings for the battery icon I believe the reason why my phone acts out of place and lags very much is because of the battery animation when its charging. When I go to lock screen settings the status bar settings are faded and I cannot press on them. Can anyone help me out

Support for this Rom is non existent. But if you want real help it would be nice to know what version of Zeus you are using. Good luck finding some one that still runs this and can help you.

Those settings are only for the changing of the lock screens. Nine of the other options are available..or even implemented..assuming that you are running Zeus6. And the standard charging animation should not be the cause of your issue. I could be wrong, but the animation is not something that can be turned off, unless you are using the battery bar mod, which has a settings app all it's own.

Lock screen gone

Hello I am not sure at all what cause this problem but no matter what I do I cannot get my phone to have a lock screen. In fact I can't even to get it to slide in the beginning it just boots into my home screen and if I turn the screen on and off it goes straight back to the homescreen without me having to unlock anything. I've gone into the settings and made multiple types of passwords but none of them show up when I turn my screen on then off. I'm running paranoid android and any help would be nice

Stuck in landscape mode

Searched around but didn't see anything.
I've rebooted a few times and pulled the battery. I've tapped it on all sides, etc. Phone is just stuck in landscape and won't rotate.
Any thoughts?
What ROM, etc...are you using? under display settings there's usually an option for auto-rotate, make sure it's checked. Also, if you're using a non-stock launcher, check the settings there for rotate, display mode, etc...

h8u so much right now lol thanks.
Rotate display decided it was going to disable itself. I have no explanation as to why but it, through it's own volition, and through no fault of my own disabled itself. It's been reeducated now.
I've found that it's usually the simple stuff, you just need somebody else to point it out. I've had my share of duh moments, too

Screen doesn't turn off after inactivity

This seems to be a problem when my phone was stock and on all of the Touchwiz mods including Executioner and CleanROM. My screen does not shut off after inactivity whether it is on the lockscreen or unlocked. This is killing my battery as sometimes it seems to get bumped in my pocket and I don't realize the screen is on.
I have checked all the settings that the phone is supposed to turn off after 30 seconds and I have smart stay turned off.
Anyone have any other suggestions or tips? Thank you!
I had the same problem. A reboot would fix it for a while but it would come back. I did a clean install of cleanrom 5.5.1 and it has finally went away.
