Hi,
I have rolled back from ICS custom rom on my xperia x8(15i) to gingerdx v029 ,everything works great however i have issues with auto rotate as it does not work any more. have tried all possible things from hard reset to flashing naa (14) kernel multiple times still no luck. Can anyone tell me how i can get auto rotate to work. I have tried compass app and it does not work. have tried to find accelerometer values but that as well does not show any values. I dnt want to go back to ICS as its very laggy. Would appericiate if someone helps me with auto rotate. Please dont suggest to shut down and remove battry , clean cache , as i have done them already. I think the problem is with roll back to gingerdx. thanks for help in advance.... i have unlocked bootloader.
Did you try a re flash?
Maybe some errors due to c bad flash?

Try back to eclair , and then back to gdx . it will be fine .
No need to unlock bootloader again
If all else fails there's an app called smart rotator. It allows you to select which app can rotate screen, you can select all for not rotate and then go and select the few you want. Or you can select all for rotate, then go select which one's you don't want to rotate.
I like ultimate rotation control its free from the market place.

I'm a newbie in real trouble ....hopefully not by making a new thread on XDA.
If I 'm violating rules pl delete this.
I m with my G2X.I have stock 2.3.3 OTA rom.nandroid ,CWM ,Baseband July 2011 ,
Whenever I press "0" or "#" on my dialer it automatically goes to hidden menu.This cannot be undone even when i wipe factory data,clear cache,clear delvic cache,or by flashing a new rom(stock froyo or gb)..etc.
This problem makes number dialing impossible
Only way is to flash CM 7.then it doesn't come.
How can i undone this auto hidden menu from coming.
Thanks in advance
You answered your own question; **** LG/2.3.3 based ROMs, use CM based ROMs.

the same here , i think it started after i upgraded to 2.3.4 that was released a few weeks ago, i had to upgrade using the LG official flasher , its a must to upgrade the baseband , its really annoying ,
im almost sure there is some secret code to dial that will disable this menu , that is enabled some how
at last , i fixed it , this time i took a little more time to think of the matter and i came to a conclusion , this matter happens due to some thing happened in the part of the FW that doenst get touched when flashing or wiping the rom , so reflashing the rom didnt fix it , first thing i did i made a backup of every thing using the custom recovery , then i went into the menu (the secret menu that keeps poping up) i got into it by pressing # which always happens to bring up that secret menu , after that i did a factory reset which is found in that menu , not the one you get into it from the settings icon , it took some time to reset , a lot longer than i thought it might take , just leave it alone till it restarts , after that you will find your self in the initial screen , like the one when you flash a new rom , just skip every thing and go directly to your dialer and press # or 0 and see for your self that its fixed at last , no secret menu any more , just a normal 0 or # , now you can do a full restore from the recovery menu using your backup , dont worry , after restoring every thing the problem wont come back ,
good luck every body
i cant understand this step i do it but not work pls help

just do a factory reset using the factory reset option you find inside the secret menu , not the one you usually use by going into settings >privacy
this will reset every thing , i mean really every thing , and it will go back to normal
you can do a full backup and after finishing the reset do a restore , yes thats right , this will not bring back the problem again
I appreciate all the great work

Hi, i've bought an unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation and was running Android Revolution HD for Sensation gingerbread. my Camera app has suddenly stopped working... I've tried updating to latest ICS from Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 but still the camera is not working. when i start the app... the screen flashes and then again I'm back on the home screen. Strangely, when using application "mirror" it starts the front camera... and that is working fine... and i've tried multiple apps from market for back camera...but its not working using any of them... can you please help me out with this... any help in this would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks

this is weird did you tried other camera apps?
if its still not working then
do a superwipe and flash rom again and see(this method erases data ..so backp them before hand)
Similar problem, if i click the camera or camcorder icon the screen goes black, it either stays black until i take the battery out or it crashes and restarts?! Weird, cant use it to take pics in any other apps either. front camera is fine on skype though...!? everything is uptodate nothing was updated recently?! Anyone
(Im on stock)
This happened to me once when i was stock. I would do a battery pull and it would work again..but finally did a hard restore through recovery and cleared all the caches and that worked. Now im rooted and on energy GB rom and I have not had that problem anymore.
Just flashing a new rom did not help. I actually had to do a factory reset on the ROM as well..in the Setting/storage.
Never ran into this problem

Have u tried maybe a different rom??

I would suggest clearing the app data.
Have you news. I have the same problem and have yet to find any solution. If you have one I'd be grateful for it.

Go to Task Manager>>Advanced>>All apps>>Find the Camera app and select it>>Force Close if it is running & then Clear Data.
This should fix it.
If not, get this app. Go to primary and secondary camera, & check if they both work.
If it works, then there's a problem with the stock app.
If not, there is either a problem with the camera or with camera access.
I would suggest reflashing your current ROM, since this seems to solve issues, many a time.
Try installing another pyramid
have you tried to download a special or customized pyramid from the sensation android development department and then tried out your 4g??? a customized pyramid + tweaks will allow the htc camera to work because the htc family usually creates htc's like as if they were real babies.. the htc's adapt to you and then little by little all the problems like "over-heating reset, camera faults and random keyboard touches" are common problems with the htc... installing a different pyramid or returning it for another new one will usually fix this..

As far as I can tell, your camera is not being detected.
I would recommend that you do this:
1>NANDROID backup
2>SuperWipe (it can be found in this post at the very end)
3>Re-install ROM (Remember to check MD5 before installing)
4>Check if the Camera works.
If not, then Super Wipe and restore your previous backup.
If it works, get back to me. (PM me if I don't reply)
If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

Just to be sure, when you say a "full wipe" you are including the system partition?
If all else fails, flash froyo PD15IMG.zip. If you used gfree to root, you won't lose S-Off. If you used root.sh it's still no big deal, because you can easily re-root. If it doesn't work on pure stock froyo, you likely have a hardware issue.
Yea, its almost religion for me to wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik and format all partitions except sd card at least twice before I flash a Rom. I know ones have a preference but I'd try using 4ext. You have all wipe options in one place instead of having to jump around to other menus.

I do mean system partition and even copying sd and formatting it and then recopying files back. I just did the PD15 2.2.1 and still its blank.. I did however try flashlight which works perfectly fine but camera just goes blank and video also. tried using pudding camera app but still. so my camera is no more? maybe a file missing somehow? what are the necessary camera related files thats needed? Also why isn't skype working for me its just allows me to enter my info and then loads forever ( i know its side topic but i use skype since i dont have alot of minutes DAILY 24/7)

Sounds like you're screwed. If your camera won't work on anything, including pure stock, it's not a file.
Hopefully Jack_R1 will see this and help you out. He'll know.
Does skype do some kind of camera check that it's getting hung up on, maybe?
Awww man just when I'm on budget mode might need a new phone ugh. Thanks alot for the suggestions though I thought those would have worked for sure. I don't wanna give this phone up had it for barely a year now I guess it's time to find the next best cheap phone
Um idk if Skype is doing a camera check but doesn't this phone not support FCC on Skype by default until u allow it? Either way I'm def screwed
Edit: your right it was doing a cam check but I flashed darkunicorn 2.5 and it gave me the option to choose whether or not enable or not so I enabled first and it did hang but I cleared data forced close and didn't enable it and boom Skype works! Now I can live without a cam for another week lol thanks alot

Yeah I am too but thanks for your help I haven't completely given up yet though I saw something in the an ICS build by synthetic.nightmare which blackwing commented on a black camera screen. He stated that it needed the camera preview fix so I'll try to get into that and see maybe that may be idk I'm tugging at any/every lead I can get. Thanks once again for the help thus far man

Hi
Recently I've unlocked my Z5's bootloader and rooted it.
I installed Paranoid android from the thread in the forum, everything was working fine, even the fingerprint sensor was working quite ok.
after a day I wanted to switch the locking option. so i wouldn't use the fingerprint, and only swipe to unlock the phone.
After i changed the settings the app crashed (it changed successfully to swipe instead of using fingerprint)
Now the result is that every time I try to change this specific setting (Screen Lock) the app asks me for my pin, I type it and the settings app crash.
I tried to restart, Clean cheche and uninstalling some google apps. nothing helps
Thank you for the help! :angel:

So obviously it happened because I am no longer stock, But as my experience goes, I know people may have stumbled upon the same problem in their past, and maybe know a solution that will work for me.
I do not want to go back to stock, Because Sony's Stock is ****, serious **** full for bloatware that you cannot remove and battery life that makes you cry.
Your message was not helpful, but thanks for trying
It most likely is a problem with the ROM installed on your device, as you already performed wipes and the problem persists. Try reporting the problem to the rom dev or if its that important, try a different rom for now
Good luck
