Auto rotation problem - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I remember reading somewhere about a file that needs to be deleted if your auto rotation stops working. I think it was the yamaha sensor. If anyone know what file and where it is located. I would appreciate the help

Brightness
I had the same problem because I updated to J16 and it was caused by old version of Mobile AP. Look in the Development section for J16 MobileAP and that should solve your problem...hopd that helps.
That fixed the problem thanks

[Q] Lost auto-rotate and Screebl

Running Evil Fascinate 6.0 with PB&J-50. Had been running near flawlessly for a few weeks. Yesterday I lost auto-rotate. The screen just won't rotate, regardless of setting. Also, Screebl Pro, which keeps the screen on when the phone is not lying down, stopped working. I tried fixing permissions with yellow, then red CWR. Tried clearing cache and dalvic. Tried re-running the zip of PB&J kernel. Nothing helped.
Anyone have any ideas?

For rotation issues, idk if it'll fix that app, but for rotation delete m3c_Yamaha.cfg from /data/system and the toggle auto rotation.

Thanks gritting the yamaha file fixed it!
Thanks times_infinity. I ended up using this as an excuse to try Com Rom 2, which I like so far and the problems are gone.

OK, my auto-rotate and Screebl have gone out again, this time on Com Rom 2. Times_Infinity, I can't find the m3c_Yamaha.cfg file. My data folder is empty. I found 3 files in system/bin:
sensorcalibutil_yamaha
sensorserver_yahama
sensorstatutil_yamaha
Can you please advise?
Ok, got it fixed using above advice. I was using wrong program to find the yamaha sensor file-Root Explorer did the trick.

times_infinity's advice fixed my stuck auto-rotate as well. Many thanks.
Is there a way to remove those files without having to be rooted?

no i want to disable it completely can i do it by modifying sensor file in mentioned directory??
just Google it, there are some apps but if you're intention is just to save battery, that would not help much as the battery consumption of proximity sensor is very little

If your stock root, you might be able to try hitting on your phone keypad *#0#* it will take you into your phone hidden settings theres all your sensors in there...im pretty sure that's the numerical sequence,theres a video on you tube search galaxy note 2 tricks
