Screen Rotation Fix - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been on an early version of CM 11 forever and never had any problems until a few days ago my screen rotation stopped. I tried toggling auto rotate on and off with no luck. I rebooted the phone many times with no luck. I even updated to 11.0-XNPH05Q with no luck. Any body have any suggestions on what to try here? Thanks

Anything?

What if I clear the device cache?

Your best bet is to update to COS 1.3.1.1 with lastest firmware.

Would that erase any of my data and settings? I am quite content with my OS as it is now but I will update if I know it will fix it.

Can you also just update through about phone > system updates?

I wont lose anything by upgrading that much right? That's like 2 whole versions of Cyanogen ahead of where I am at now.

You should not, just by updating, if you are completely stock.

Last question. What would be the reason the update would fix the issue?

Not sure why screen rotation issues started, but I guarantee it is a firmware issue. I remember CM11S had screen rotation issues but then. But updating to COS 13.1.1 will also update you to lastest firmware and should fix your issues.

The update did fix my issues. I just am new having a few other issues with the new OS like my LTE isn't working and my BG Tube app is glitchy in background playback. But thank you for helping me solve the screen rotation issue.

Yeah. Signal was better on KK and LP. Old firmware did better with signal. I still get LTE, but it was better on older firmwares. As far as YouTube app, not sure. But glad you screen rotation is working ?

Google search not working after update, help

As the title states my Google search is no longer working after the new update. The only way I can get it to work it to clear cache, data, and uninstall updates which will then revert the app to factory form. After doing all that the app works no issues but then the app updates itself and then i keep getting same error message every time I try to load it.. Anyone else have this issue? Running P6800 with JB 4.1.2. Thanks in advance.

I have the same issue. I read there are issues on some nexus devices. I think just wait for Google to release a fix.

Same here. Reverted to the previous version and waiting for the update with correction (hopefully),
I just did a phone reset hoping it would solve the issuebut nothing. Google just released a new update and still same problem.

Indeed, the release of 11/21 is no good either.
I have been looking all over the net and can't seem to find any info on this, Google hasn't even acknowledged there is something wrong. Maybe this is only affecting a very small number number of people.

Both Google Now / Search and Newsstand have been crashing on launch with the stock ROM. But on my other JB devices no such problem. I tried rooting this tablet. No change. Then I flashed the unofficial Cyanogenmod 10.1. That solved the problem.
My assumption: the Samsung stock ROM is the source of the problem.
What did I learn?
- My tablet is running smoother without all the Samsung crap. I should have done it even sooner!
- I will probably gravitate in the future to Nexus devices where the OS is not compromised by vendor-motivated overhead. And it's easier to get updates and custom ROMs.
- Because Samsung has not been fully cooperative with the developer community, ROMs often lack certain device drivers. (Another advantage for Nexus.)
If this motivates you to root and flash just be aware of two known deficiencies with the ROM I am using:
-no tethering
-once you turn off wifi you'll have to reboot to turn it on again.
(Thanks, Samsung for withholding wifi device drivers from the public.)
We shouldn't have to install custom roms in order for an app to work. I have tried to report the issue to Google but I have yet to receive feedback. I have flashed many roms and many of my Android devices but I longer wish to do so since no one rom is fully functional as it should, there will always be issues. I too may consider a Nexus device, but at the same time I have always liked Samsung and their products but this one issue with this app is a little annoying.

What I don't understand is that my wife's Note I I was able to update with no issues, her phone is running JB 4.1.2. I'm no tech or anything but I believe it may have something to with our tab itself.

After flashing the JB 4.1.2 Indonesian firmware, my Google search has stopped working. No matter what I do it always crashes.
I don't have option to uninstall updates from app manager. Does any of u guys have an older version of Google search? Would be really glad if u can post it for me.

Hi Manipur,
Try to download this:
http://sdrv.ms/18hoDxb
Let me know if any problems.
Whether Samsung or Google, the android environment can come across as chaotic. So much going on with all various versions.
Samsung keep selling us pretty much the same devices with new software, I'm not particularly impressed their pace of improvements.
Google products seems to work well on Apple ios, android is still missing functions available Apple for a good while now, funny how that works.

Oops. Too bad, that is the oldest one I have, and it works fine in my case.
I know I'm not the only one with this issue, anybody have an any ideas as to why Google search no longer works, even after new updates. On My wife's Note II she gets all the updates with no issue, she is also running 4.1.2. This is really pissing me off.

Swiftkey Issue

Anyone else having issues with swiftkey staying at default? I know there was an issue when you reboot the phone, the keyboard would reset but, it happens when the screen is off or the phone goes into deep sleep.
Was wondering if anyone knows of a fix??

Sorry cannot reproduce. Been using swift key every since i got the phone and not had any problems keeping it as a default, even after rebooting.
That happened to me on KK as well as JB. I simply disable the stock keyboard in Settings.

That's weird... You think GravityBox could be causing it? That's the only "modifications" I've made.
I've tried the official release and the new beta release and still have the same problems.

[Q] BSoD, any suggestion/solution?

So, something weird has been happening of late with my phone. During normal use, it suddenly hangs for a few seconds and then crashes, BSoD! I thought that was only exclusive to Windows. It has happened over 4-5 times now(in time span of a week) and I'm getting concerned. It certainly isn't ROM/Kernel issue as I've changed from Omni to Slim to CM, with stock kernel or others. The only thing I haven't tried is reverting back to Sony's stock ROM (because installing drivers on Windows 8 is absolute pain in the ass).
Here are a couple of images. http://i.imgur.com/9VtrxHl.jpg; http://i.imgur.com/E24EC2f.jpg (Please ignore the smudge )
Does any of you have any suggestions or any idea what the problem could be about? H/w?
With which rom you is this happening? To me it happened to me while using carbon 4.4

It used to happen to me on CM11 every once in a while, but I've been on Omni for the past 3 weeks and I've never encountered any BSOD's here
Oh and I think you meant 'stock' rom not stoke lol

I originally faced it on Omni, then switched to CM. Still facing it I'll do a full wipe and try. I haven't tried reverting back to Sony's stock ROM yet. And yeah, thanks for pointing out the typo.

You can try flashing the stock firmware(I'd recommend the latest), then doing a clean install I believe that would fix it. Also you might wanna delete those bsod error dumps. They might eat up your storage, idk where they're located though :L

Tried finding them, they sure don't consume large memory or I'd have noticed. Yeah just downloading the stock ftf and figuring out xperia drivers on Windows 8.
Edit: Just saw that the crush dumb was indeed of considerable size. 1.05GB.

Thanks for telling me that! I actually hadn't faced it before and in last week I kept facing it again and again so thought it might be something to do with H/w, my friend who also has XL isn't facing it. I'll move to stock if it keeps happening.

In the External SD CARD, this BSoD problem happened to me as well at that time i was on CM11. I thought my phone got bricked but i was wrong, i pulled the battery out and then everything worked just fine and there were no issues Regarding BSoD after that, PS-I am still using CM11 Nightly Release!
I faced it when using CM Nightly, Never faced it again on Candy Kat give it a try.

No SIM(service)

I just updated my phone to M preview 3 build MPA44I. Since then its been showing no SIM most of the time. Every time I have to reboot and its gets fixed. But within a few minutes its back to No SIM again.
Any one else facing the same issue or can I anyone suggest any solutions?
Thanks in advance.

It appears to be a 'minor' patch that includes security fixes and no real software changes.
There should be no reason to do a factory reset.

I'm not so sure about that.
I've been having sensor issues immediately after this latest update. Both my orientation and light sensor stop working occasionally (every other day) and I have to reboot to fix.
I had ZERO issues with this before the update a few weeks ago.

I haven't, but I'm about to. As a software engineer I'm fundamentally against a factory reset to fix an issue. It's like wiping your Windows hard drive to fix a driver.
