[Q] Screen Rotation P6810

I've a possible problem with the P6810. When rotating the screen from portrait to landscape or vice versa while in an application such as youtube or web browsing, what ever is being presented on the screen is reset.
What I mean is this; say you are streaming something from youtube, as soon as you rotate the screen, the video restarts from the beginning. Same with audio or websites. If I'm browsing, a rotation in screen orientation will cause the web page to refresh. It becomes quite annoying.
This is not behavior I'm familiar with on other devices so I need to know from others with the Tab 7.7 whether or not this is normal as I don't think it is. I've reset the tablet and I've used several different launchers with no change. I'm starting to believe I may have a hardware problem.

I too have this screen rotation problem when browsing
I too am having this screen rotation problem and have not yet found a solution. In all broswers that I have used (stock, Firefox beta, Dolphin HD, Opera Mobile), when I rotate the screen while browsing, it resets. The page I was browsing goes away (actually all pages loaded up on the tabs go away as well) and it returns me to home screen.
Any insights into fixing this are appreciated.

I too have noticed this with YouTube and also noticed it with wallpapers. It is very annoying when the wallpaper has to be refreshed everytime the screen rotates
Fogot to mention that my tab is the P6800 not the wifi version

So three not working properly... anyone have one which doesn't exhibit this behavior?
I have not seen this occur on several phones including my current galaxy nexus or on previous ASUS tablets. I see it as a potential defect unless anyone can show otherwise.

+1 for "not working"
I haven't seen this as a defect as much as a bug. I'm guessing we're all on the same build and Samsung just need to fix it (hopefully with ICS and soon plz!)
I'm on the LA2 build myself, imported from Panamoz, built in Taiwan.
I like my homescreen to stay in portrait, and so this bug also immediately crashes some full screen games that are landscape only when I load them from my homescreen. I have to load an auto-rotate app (like the browser), switch to landscape, then multi-task into the game...its a pain.

I hope it's something in their implementation of HC but since I've not seen a device act like this on any previous incarnations of Android on multiple hardware platforms it has me a bit worried. Wonder if someone with a legit device can put a call into Samsung to see what's up or even if US support knows what the device is since Verizon is now selling them.

didn't help for me, Animations turned off, if I change orientation in Opera during page load it just crashes opera completely.... very annoyed by this

Very strange thing, I turn on animation, and everithing is work fine :-| I update Youtube and Opera (new versions was on market ), may be you should do that to, plus reboot your device.

Youtube in a browser works as expected now that the browser is not refreshing, however what I'm talking about is video streaming from within the youtube app. Everything is up to date and I did a reboot after changing the setting.

Screen not rotating on SGT7.7
I work at verizon and today this issue was driving me crazy for 22mins. After power cycling the device (twice) and checking the rotate box then unchecking it several times to no avail, I was left with two options: 1.Hard Reset, which i wasn't going to do, or 2. Calling samsung, the sammy rep instructed me to hard reset. Man she was really no help at all so i tried one last thing I horizontally re-calibrated the device and it worked just fine so far only resolution.

I had this issue as well. Happened to me twice now. Started to install some apps I had. Problem hasn't come back yet. Don't know if it's app related or not.

I actually had a similar issue, but within the Samsung Video Player itself. When I would play any video, the screen would kind of flicker on/off or have horizontal lines on it. That started about the time I was playing with a Miracast receiver. Didn't have any issues with any other video player. The video player had also started giving me a message like, "cannot play while on call" or something. Clearing RAM/Apps fixed that. But it took a reboot to resolve the video player issue.

Youtube fullscreen problem

Hey
Just posting here in case anyone else is having this problem and has found a solution.
The problem is that once I set a youtube video into full screen, I cant get the video player controls to appear again when tapping the screen, meaning I can't seek or pause the video unless I press back to get to the small player. This only happens on my note 12.2 and not on my other devices running the same youtube version (nexus 5 and 7).
I have rooted and flashed the near stock rom from Gatsrom and am using CivZ kernel rev3.0
Uninstalling updates to the youtube app does fix the problem though, so it looks like it might be a problem specific to the note with the latest youtube, so I was wondering if anyone else has hit on this same glitch?

This happens on CivZ rom too, with CivZ kernel or stock kernel. Probably a YouTube glitch.

I am stock non rooted and it's happening to me too..Has to be a YT issue.

The Youtube app isn't adapted to work with screensizes above 11" yet. That's why.
Essentially what happens is the app is stretched and the HUD bugs out because of it.

Must be a regression in the newest version of the app then, since it used to work fine. I've sent feedback to Google regarding this via the youtube app.
Thanks for chiming in everyone!

Same problem here.
It's really irritating! When i enter the Youtube app from a link (in chrome) and then hit the full screen button, and then i want to pause the video, i need to hit the back button but that's immediately takes me back to last app (chrome).
i found out that if I want it to stay in Youtube app, i need to: press the link (in chrome or gmail app), lower the minimized video to the right bottom side of the screen, then enlarge the screen again, after all that i can hit the full screen button and if i want to pause i can hit the back button and it will not exit the app.

Oddly enough the interface can be forced to show up in full-screen mode using the play/pause media controls command. For example if one clicks the button on a pair of headphones with a play/pause button while in full-screen mode then the video will pause and controls show up on screen. As soon as the controls fade away due to the standard interface delay they cannot be brought back by screen touch gestures but the headphones button will bring them back.
Since I'm rooted and use tons of customizations, I've set up a custom gesture in GMD gesture control to invoke the media play/pause command as a work around to this issue in YouTube until it's fixed. I now simply tap and hold 5 fingers on the screen while YouTube is playing full-screen and the video pauses and Youtube displays the player interface.

I have the same problem both on Note Pro and Tab Pro. Very irritating.

I confirm that the problem is solved with version 6. You can get it from here as I did if you don't want to wait to roll out to your country's play store.

Red tinting issues when I watch Youtube and Facebook videos.

Had anybody experienced this issue with their LG G FLEX 2 yet? When I watch videos on YouTube or Facebook, the videos slightly repeatedly turn red then refresh back every 2 secs or so. I bought a brand new H950 ATT model recently and just noticed it after updating my phone to the latest software. I did soft and hard resets already and nothing happens. I tried to watch other videos on different programs such as Gallery and Chrome and they don't have this weird issue. (Which i am guessing, is not a hardware issue)

Try turn off auto adjust screen tone in display options

Problem with Amazon Prime Video Split Screen Multitasking

Hi, I noticed that Amazon's Prime video app does not support Nougat split screen multitasking. Whenever I go in split screen mode it stops the video as soon as I touch the other app in split screen mode.
Now what I want to know is, whether anyone has found a workaround for this?

I found that surprisingly when you are in splt screen node (in app overview long-press amazon prime and slide to top), the trick is to start video playback and almost instantly select the bottom window. Must be realy quick, I use both hands. Try a couple of times...
