I have a rooted Nexus S i9023 running CM9 RC1 with Air Kernel... I usually have auto rotate turned off because I don't like it! But then a few days back my device used to auto rotate automatically with the rotate being turned off.. It solved itself after a few days so I didn't bother. But it's just stuck in landscape mode and will not switch no matter what I do! It happened while I was using KangyU also and it happened with it also 3 times. Everytime I need to perform a factory reset and flash a new ROM and then it solves :/ I used androsensor and it does show a value for Accelerometer but my phone simply does not rotate! Is there a problem with my accelerometer? Do i need to give it to the service center or can I do something that will solve it? Any help appreciated
If doing a factory reset/ reflash fixes it. Then it is not a hardware issue.
Not factory reset persay. I need to flash a new ROM for it to go normal

This is probably a problem with your Kernel or ROM, please flash a stock ROM to ensure that the accelerometer is fine. If you are afraid you might lose anything make a backup or so.
Okay yeah AiRKernel might be the problem. Thanks I'll try it and let you know. Thanks!

I went stock.. But AndroSensor is still showing the same reading it was showing on CM9.. And the auto-rotation bug only comes after a few weeks into any ROM.. Also everytime that occurs I get a prompt saying
" Complete action using
Clock
Tune In Radio "
Everytime I get that pop-up I'm stuck on landscape for infinity. So can it be an app problem? It's happened so far on 3 ROM's I've used (KangyU, CM9, Paranoiandroid)
so I doubt whether it is a ROM issue. Maybe a Kernel issue because I've used AirKernel on all 3 of them
Could be either I suppose. Not sure how either could cause it though
The sensor read out should be the same no matter what rom is on there. That is normal. The app itself tells you what the read outs from each sensor should be as well
My point. But what I mean is, If readings are the same then the behaviour should be same as well right? Where is the accelerometer exactly located?

It happened on Stock also :/ stock ics stock kernel. Same popup :/
Accelerometer issue?

If a new rom and kernel didn't fix it then it might be hardware.
Strangest thing happened. I uninstalled Tune In Radio and voila auto rotate back! So the app was the issue! But any idea what might have possessed that app to do so? :/

Everytime i have tried flashing a CM7 based rom, and i've tried almost all of them, once the screen goes to sleep it won't wake up. i think that's called sleep of death (SOD), pardon my n00bness if i'm wrong. the odd thing is that when i press the wake button, the phone and even the digitizer wake up because i can hear/feel the phone unlocking when i make the sliding motion on the screen, but the screen itself will not wake up. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this? or better yet any ways of preventing/fixing this?
Do you have this issue on stock?

What kernel r u using? If u flashed uv kernel try to use stock voltage, some devices don't work well with custom uv kernels
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I have this problem with all 3 kernels, stock, oc UV, and oc stock voltage .. I've had this phone for a month now, this is what makes it a waste of money for me. Even my girl has this problem with her g2x, yesterday I put cm 7.1, hers started doing it too.. and she's had 3 replacements..

Did u wipe ur data and format system before flashing? Try to fix permission too. Only guessing but maybe the battery is bad, as far as I know u not getting new one with replacement, so if u had same issue on stock rom that could be a problem.
I had 2 replacements but had that problem only if undervolt too much.

Well, I don't think its the battery dying but someone mentioned here before that if you look at the battery where the connectors are, there's 4 on the battery but 3 on the phone

No this issue only occurs on CM7 based roms, OTA 2.3.3 based roms work great

I haven't purposely flashed any non-stock kernels alongside the roms, unless all the roms i flashed included UV kernels....but i've flashed almost every CM7 based rom

I did wipe data, format system and even fix permissions and still same problem occurs, I don't think it has to do with the battery tho because stock OTA based roms don't have this issue...it must be something particular about the CM7 base
Also, could it be the fact that i have the WIND mobile optimus 2x? it says p999-DW on the back though
use miui it doesnt have the SOD problem cm7 did it the last time i had it (3 days ago)
I remember when I was on stock factory rom my GPS was working perfectly.
Now on custom rom rooted it bearly gets my location right..
Opinions?

Funny, on stock I could never get a lock. Try this: set the GPS source to internal
Grab an app called GPS status
Run it and let it download the "aiding data" them reboot, relaunch it, seconds later you should have a lock.

What rom?

I'm having the exact same issues. I used to have trouble locking but now as soon as I enable gps my phone reboots. I'm gonna try wiping it clean tomorrow and running the dragon kernel to see if it helps. Running Bionix Reloaded (latest)
anyone know a quick fix without rebooting?

I too have instant locks on any stock based rom after updating my baseband. But, after flashing custom CM7/EB/ etc non stock roms i noticed it took a little longer to lock if it even locked. So i seen a post here on xda about going into the maps app via settings/ applications/ manage applications. Then clear cache/data. Then going back into navigation or maps app i would receive instant locks again. Sorry I dont have a link to that thread but thats what helped me. it takes a few extra seconds to do that but i liked it better than rebooting my phone which took longer.
wow thats amazing
now i cant use my TF. i was enjoy ICS
if anyone knows how to fix or help me
everytime i try to increase the brightness it goes black
all i can do is reboot to recovery mode and flash a rom
i dont know what to do
Bump
No one???. I'm about to cry.. It turns on for 2 sec. Then went back off I did. Everything factory reset went Back to stock nothing please help

Aw that sucks
What did you have before ics ?
Are you using CWR ?
Did you do a full wipe before installing the rom ?
Yeah did
I think something happened to the screen..
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Same issue but does not require reboot or reflash.
When you touch the brightness it goes black, BUT if you press the power, then press it again it will wake up to previous brightness and if you leave the brightness alone, your fine.
I was on a ginger rom before but did a full wipe, wiped caches, and also did my permissions as well, no help.
mine wont even turn on anymore
the screen is dead they told me
im gonna send it to asus on tuesday
thanks for the help guys
now i have no tablet
Hey, same thing happened to me even before the update to ICS.
Here's the thread I posted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517655
I guess I have to send mine in too? Fail.

I have the same issue i use the lux app from the market it works very well
I have 2 infuses, mine running JB CM10 fantastically (thanks Scott et Al) and my sons back on stock rooted GB. My problem is when ever I gry to flash a better ROM such as emancipation... or simply entropy's kernel for GB I lose the use of the screen on a phone call. As soon as the call is placed or received the screen goes dark and stays there till the call terminates... am not new to flashing... did all the necessary cleaning prior to install and ended up odening back to a form of stock GB. Works fine in both stock and rooted stock, any suggestions?

My phone does something similar, I just tap the proximity sensor and it usually comes back up.
There are apps in the market place that can read out your sensor info

Op: are you saying that on 1 infuse, it works fine. The other infuse, custom rom causes prox sensor loss?
That is to say, that 1 particular infuse, only stock kernel will work?
I recalled 6 months back, another user mentioned this to me. despite of all he did, other custom firmware causes prox sensor loss. Only stock kernel ran his phone properly. He traded his in or upgraded..I don't recalled exactly.

I haven't seen this issue at all. What ROM are you running? Did you notice this after installing something or did it just start one day/when you received the phone? Try wiping the cache/data from both the Email/Exchange service apks and reboot (will have to redo the information on email) to see if the issue goes away. If not, then it sounds like something messed up when software was installed and may need a reset (can try the stock ROM if running that in Original Development if that's what you are on, may correct the issue with fresh flash). Good luck.
