(SOLVED) Help! My note 3 no longer auto rotates screen. - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

For some reason, the auto rotate function has stopped working. I'm rooted on a stock 4.4 Rom. The situation occurred after I was removing some bloat ware using titanium backup. I first assumed I must have dropped it, causing sine damage to one or more of the sensors. I've downloaded numerous sensor testing apps and checked *#0*#, and saw that all the sensors are working (or reporting they're working at least.). What can I do to get auto screen rotation working again, without having to use a third party app?

Alright, you're rooted, running a stock kernel and everything is in alignment (baseband, ROM build number, &c).
Try factory resetting your device, and perhaps installing a stock DeOdex or Odex rom on the dev forum, and see if that doesn't get you back.
I appreciate you showing the screen, but it provides some info that many do not state in their initial post.
I assume you've checked all of the normal places in settings (i think there is a toggle in the pulldown menu for autorotae on/off)).
Good luck, definitely sucks.

I've done a factory reset, and the problem persists. I've made sure the screen rotate toggle is on, and in apps like YouTube where orientation is forced into landscape, if I turn the phone horizontal, the orientation will change. It seems like I just can't get the screen to change into landscape automatically.

So...

So, it works in-app for YouTube when forced (say a video on an app when viewed from the play store), but not when in, say, the stock phone app? Please confirm same.

I just tried the youtube app, When I put the phone in lanscape orientation, there is no change in the screen. If I tap the enlarge button for the youtube app, it will be forced into landscape mode. From there, when I put the phone back into portrait position, it will automatically change, as if the phone was working normally.

What about the Phone App

It would be helpful to know the details requested; namely, your phone app (stock phone, nothing else, not concerned with YouTube at the moment, as we can tackle that later).
Thanks!

WAIT i know your issue.....did you delete the samsung hub apk? write back i can fix your issue in 5 minutes no need to reset anything.
do this
1 extract libgnustl_shared.so from system>lib of your rom's zip.
2. Copy and paste to System>>lib and change permission to rw-r--r--
3. Reboot
dont ask me why but deleting hub deletes that lib. its need for auto rotation. i did the same thing.took me forever to figure that out .

Worked perfectly. Thanks. As a note, the file was missing on my phone. I had to download a copy from github.com. I used Root Browser app to to move from Download folder to System/lib folder, then long pressed on file to open menu where the permissions settings were located. Checking the appropriate boxes set permissions to rw-r--r-- combo.

S3 screen stays on while plugged to charging

Hi guys,
Recently my S3, when charging, does not have its screen turned off. It was not the case when I got my phone but is happening the last few days.
Not sure what went wrong, but currently I am on XXALF6 + Siyah 1.2.6.
Any clues?

Set to 30 seconds, but it does not turn off only when charging.
Pretty sure something went wrong either through flashing the firmware/kernel :/
Had the same problem. Solved it by downloading "extended controls" and there is an option that keeps the screen on while charging...switch this off. Something must have triggered it but there is no option in the standard Galaxy menu to switch it off.
thanks man! how the hell did that setting turned up :/
I noticed this after updating my EC. It's on by default.

The stock ICS at least has an option to keep the screen on during charging (Settings -> Developer options), maybe this option somehow got turned on? Samsung has, for some reason, decided to hide this option from the stock ROM, though, but maybe some apps (such as Extended Controls) still can enable it?

Correction: you have to add it as a toggle in the widget. Once the widget has been added to your homescreen, you can toggle it off.

Hey dude, thanks for this, I have referenced it in a post where I asked the same question. I hope people give you some thanks for this. I had already extended controls installed but never thought to use that toggle. Did you have the program installed before it happened, maybe there is something to do with the S3 and this tool that triggers it?
Syl
The screen on triggered when I tried to use a non original HDMI cable from Ebay.
screen stays on all the time
apologies in advance for being new and potentially asking something stupid! I have a similar problem, however my screen is staying on all the time - when not charging.
I have set screen timeout to 30 seconds and tested with the smart stay setting both on and off. I am running the stock 4.04 ICS rom:
Baseband version - I9300BULG2
restarting the phone doesnt appear to help (it did once, but after a while it was back to staying awake.). Currently the smart stay option is on, but I noticed that the little eye icon that normally pops up to check if you are looking at phone never appears, so I am assuming the phone "thinks" its being actively used.
In an attempt to try to fix problem, I removed all widgets from the home screens but that does not appear to have helped. Wondered if anyone else had this problem?

Dude, i believe there is a setting that you can find in extended controls, irs called "Screen Always on" install extended controls from play store and create a widget to disable this and you should be sorted.

I just bought Extended Controls. I see a widget with a brightness button, I selected it, but have no idea how to program it so that my phone doesn't light up in the middle of the night once charging is complete.
Can some kindly provide some instructions on how to program the widget?

Dude, read this thread, the answer is there. Basicly, add a toggle called "stay awake" and you should notice that its got a green line under it. Press the toggle to turn it off and your good to go.

thanks for your help. I installed the widget and the "Screen Always On" wasnt enabled... however I have since found the problem. I noticed the phone was getting pretty hot when apparently idle, so figured something was constantly running even though it didnt seem to be, The culprit was a samsung app which I installed, tested (thought was a bit pointless), then forgot about. It was called "Drivelink" anddownloaded from samsung app store. I wont make that mistake again!
thanks for your help though... That app looks pretty useful so happy to have been pointed in it's direction!

Not sure if this will fix dpi issue. I dont have a hdpi.conf file that doesn't have a nav bar. Might need to make one if this doesn't work.
Rev. 3 http://d-h.st/qI6
A attempt to get hardware button layout straightened out. DPI issue unresolved. Use Hybrid settings.
Rev. 4 http://d-h.st/iqW
Possible dpi fix.
Rev. 4 http://d-h.st/rzS
Finally figured out what the real dpi is. Should be allset. check gps to see if recent cm sources fixed issue.

EDIT: Ok here's my review, first thing off the bat I noticed was the screen size was too big, tried setting the DPI value in build.prop and reboot but it stayed the same. Everything else seemed to run really smooth otherwise, if you can change the DPI to the s2 default I think this rom would then be superb I also wouldn't mind helping you troubleshoot, I'm not a noob to this sort of stuff, so just let me know, I restored my backup but I also have a backup of this rom too...

Got this up and running right now and it works great, no force closes or bugs . Can make calls and use Wi-Fi. One thing though when it first boots up you need to go to the hybrid setting and change the dpi and your set. Also one thing, you cannot press and hold the capacitive keys for different commands they can only be.set for one touch action and there is no option in the setting to add the search key so it's basically blank. I'll post a screen shot after I test it out more.

Thanks for getting back to me. The new repository has a whole new way of dealing with hardware keys Im still working it out. Were any of them set to anything at first boot? Also I tried to set the dpi to 213 I take it that didn't stick? Do you remember what it was at before you changed it?

http://d-h.st/qI6 Tried setting hardware soft keys correctly.
The capacitive keys were as follows menu was set as menu, home to home, back to back, and search key is blank but does vibrate when touch. In then setting for the keys I can change the normal key presses but you cannot set the long press key options since they wont work.
The DPI was set to 360 for system and apps, all I did was enable the hybrid mode, rebooted, changed DPI to 213 system and 215 apps and made sure to change the ui mode to phone. It can change to phablet and tablet modes as well. The only issue I have is the search key , and long presses that don't work yet.
This rom so far is awesome and runs smoothly, also battery drain is non existing, though I do have a extended battery, but thanks and let me know if you need more info.
You have a new beta tester! I'll get some screenies for you soon.
Edit:
Initial DPI needs to be lowered. I think it's defaulting to around 350. Should be the low 200's.
Is there a reason Play Store isn't included?
Also, and you may know this, GPS is broken due to upstream CM changes. Might want to note that in OP as this is a feature a lot of people rely on. Maps seems to work, but other apps that use location can't get a lock.

EDIT 2: Ok you guys may have noticed that the Play Store displays too big when you load it up, to fix that just go to DPI Groups in Hybrid Properties, then add Google Play Store to the 213 DPI Group and that will fix it, I've also got my system DPI screen size fixed This rom is shaping up to be pretty good, nice job RBMacgregor

If the play store is not included its to keep the peace with google. They have done a lot for us and doing what they ask is the least we can do. It was in there at one point but may be pulled. As for the gps I was not aware its broken. I'm not too familiar with this device I'm just trying to get this build straightened out for my girlfriend who has the phone. Do you know what the deal is with gps? Is there a fix available or a commit I can revert?

What was the dpi set at in later builds? I dont have a file I need for hdpi no navigation devices but It must have worked or been in the old repo at one point. Im gonna try and dig into it and see what I can find. Other than stock dpi and gps everything else is hunky dory? system dpi should be 213
Ok. I don't think this will do it but I need someone to install this and tell me if there is a nav bar along with hardware soft buttons. http://d-h.st/iqW

Initial SetUp
Make sure you have rom on extsdcard! In recovery wipe everything, data, system, cache, delvik, factory reset, then FORMAT DATA...
I have flashed this 6 times with wiping everything except formating data and No Air Cmd.. 3 times in a row with formating data and all 3 WITH Air cmd.
If your loading up the rom for the first time and your sitting at the verizon screen....it will be a while, you have to think about it like this
-VM is being built for the first time
-The rom just got ODEXED so it has to build the data cache as well
Honestly first boot after the install takes about 8-9 minutes. Best way to tell your phone is still on the right track, if your on the verizon screen, and your LED is lit up blue it is still building everything for initial boot. Once the BLUE led light goes out, you will be booting into system momentarily at the welcome screen. Please be patient
If your having trouble with air command, BEFORE YOU EVEN DO ANYTHING OR TOUCH ANYTHING. goto settings after the setup WITH THE S PEN STILL IN THE PHONE. click menu, switch to tabbed view, goto controls, turn on air view and air command, and THEN pull out the pen and test it. DO NOT CHANGE ANY OTHER SETTINGS OR ENABLE AIR COMMAND ON THE STANDARD SETTINGS VIEW UNTIL YOU HAVE GONE TO TABBED VIEW AND TURNED THEM ON WITH THE PEN STILL IN THE HOLSTER FROM BOOT UP. Thank you for reading
Reporting a bug/fc..
So here is what I need in order to help. Download a logcat application from the market. Do what you have to in order to reproduce the issue. Load the logcat to either pastebin or drop box and paste the link. We cannot fix issues based on pictures (unless theme related). We also need the following information.
-Clean or dirty install?
-Recovery used?
-Stock app?
-Reproducible?
-Frequency?
We will be updating the OP of both the Rom thread and this Q&A thread with this information. Without this information we are shooting blind and it slows down the troubleshooting process. This should be a prerequisite for any bug report
Why doesn't Wifi work or in setup it just sits there?
Before installing this rom you MUST FLASH THE MJ9 OTA firmware released by beans for ODIN ONLY.
This will ensure proper functionality of your phone and this ROM. This rom requires an updated pit, TZ, Hidden, params and modem to function the way it was meant to.
The only way to get these updated is via odin flash.
Also well before flashing this rom, please remove all files you would like to keep a copy of from internal storage.
Switching to 4.3 from 4.1.2 changes quite a bit, including the location of the internal SD cards memoryblock.
You will need to wipe Internal SD
Why isn't GPS working?
You need to flash MinorFixV1.zip in top header, under Downloads. Sorry it was a bug we didn't catch believe it or not..HAHA
Why doesn't Air Command work?
A few things you need to try..Did you guys wipe data and internal sd? Then make sure you go into settings>menu key>select tab view>Controls>turn ON Air Command. Still not working? Turn everything off in on the spen page as well as air command and air view....reboot and renable if it doesnt work.. Boot into recovery and dont wipe. Install the rom, in aroma chose to wipe data.
Where is Xposed?
Settings>Menu>Switch to tab view> Device Tab > Custom Apps
For those of you who Have a Galaxy Gear and want to sync weather!
Unfortunately I haven't figure out what the interaction is between the widget and the gear. The only way to have weather update on your gear is to use the Note 2 weather widget...not the Note 3. So I will be posting a flashable zip momentarily that will move you to the note 2 4.3 widget and clear the data for the app.
Download the Weather Widget for gear fix from the DevDB Downloads tab!
For those of you that want to use S Health! And want to use it with their Gear!
YOU CANNOT HAVE THE INCLUDED XPOSED MULTIWINDOW MANAGER TURNED ON OTHERWISE S HEALTH WILL CRASH
Now the bigger question, we all want custom apps in multiwindow, best way is to either use gravity box, OR set the apps you want then disable the module.
Now then...I've included the Basic Launch APK of S Health from the note 3 with the rom....however?!? You all want the new update and features so download this and install as a regular APK!
Download by clicking Downloads on the DEVDB Tab, S health apk
Once this is installed you'll have all 3 widgets, as well the pedometer should work. And it will sync with your galaxy gear. Just remember - Multiwindow managers are a no no!
Where is Note 3 Walls?
Here..
Why doesn't Air Gestures>Finger Air View>Signature Unlock work?
These are things that will never work. Air Gestures not going to happen.. Finger Air View no sensor.. Signature Unlock..really? Would you really use it? Or is it just cool to do once
Where is page buddy?
Page buddy is removed in the 4.3 note 3 launcher, page buddy service is changed.
Galaxy Gear not sending pictures over to the N2?
Change the amount of times it autosyncs the photos a day through gear manager. It auto syncs on first connect...then stock is once a day...you can also share your photos through the gallery by clicking on a photo on the gear.
Why isn't Xposed themes not working?
Xposed...zip themes wont work. We basically did this because we want to protect what we spent SO MUCH TIME creating. So the ROM was reOdexed upon creating. Sorry..
This damn Rom keeps telling me my internet connection is unstable and shows me a voicemail icon!
his seems to be with all OTA roms. Easy to get rid of the notification. Goto Wifi settings hit menu, click advanced, turn off wifi notifications
S Translator not recognizing voice?
DL this thanks @turbo50t
Where do you get the MJ9 OTA firmware released by beans for ODIN ONLY and a guide on how to install it?
Click Here and here is Beans Official Thread for instructions on "how to ODIN FLASH" please use the Search tab on XDA.
Can I change the overall dpi of this rom?
Yes you can to a certain point. You can install Xposed Module: App Settings..There is also a thread HERE where @Pafcholini has modded some apps.. PLEASE make sure you back up whatever you change..and REMEMBER some apps may not work for you..

hey L8
i got a question.
I was trying to use the mobile printing using the gallery and the samsung stock browser and got this error message and print just hangs in the notification. I was able to find my printer ok after connecting to my home wifi network.
Does mobile print work with this rom? im not sure if it is just me.

The reason this may not work is because the browser is not stock. Its S Browser from note 3. I have no way to confirm this is the reason its not working due to not having a printer...lol

let me know if i pulled it right. first time lol
update: even though the from the browser and the gallery i was able to scan for the correct printer when connected through wifi i dont think samsung has the drivers for my printer. I tried printershare app in the playstore and it printed with a generic printer driver. (didnt have the exact brother printer driver)
lol just learned how to use google cloud print. So easy =). Ditching samsung print

Thanks for this. Since I'm new to xda I could not comment on op. Everything about this rom is awesome. Even with the small bugs this still is one of the best TW 4.3 roms out there. Keep up the good work guys.
Great Rom!!
Hey! I love this rom. The only thing i'm missing is the quick controls in the stock browser. Is there a way I can get that feature back?

Deck and l18 you guys truly made a awesome rom. I have no reason to get the note 3 now!! Just time to wait for the note 4.
Deck and L18, just wanna say you guys rock:thumbup: After following your instructions and a few dirty flashes and the latest fix, Everything works flawlessly!
I bought my Note 2 a few weeks before the Note3 came out and now I get the best of both worlds
Thanks again for the many hours and hard work you and your other dev. helpers have put into making this awesome Rom happen!!!

Need some help
1)
anyone of you guys notice that in /storage there are two files "0" and "legacy" that is pretty much the exact identical version of the /storage/sdcard0
i had this same issue with skynote before too. I could have sworn that i wiped my internal storage before flashing this rom too but the file system is out of whacked. I dont get it.
Please let me know if you guys are having the same thing or not. Thanks
Update: must have done something wrong with wiping internal storage during flashing. Gonna Do a fresh flash.
2)
i always get the android is updating "nebula is updating" message when i boot up the phone. (maybe because i messed with a system app or wipe dalvic cache)
i get so frustrated when this happens...
anyone know how to stop that message at boot going on every time i reboot?
i really dont want to reflash nebula rom =(
Update: going to fresh flash again cause i looked and looked. Next time i mess with system apps im gonna nandroid a clean good copy. Ahh the hours of person settings touch down the drain ;:head palm:;
3) update
well this one i found out wanam does. remaps the double click home botton to any app i want =) and can disable wake home when screen is off. Found out that wanam doesnt replace the my magazine with double tap home. Depending on the speed of the double home tap I still get my magazines lol
(i was trying to get the xposed additions pro version to work so i played with system app and replacing it with the pro because the pro version app on the market doesnt replace the xposed additions in system apps/ update the module- lead to problem number 2 lol)
Scratch what I said above... wanam did remap my double tap home button to any app to want but I found out that pressing home on you home page brings up my magazimes. Grr... this stinks lol.
update 2:
im so stupid. in my magazine when you go to settings there is an option to disable pressing the home key to open my magazines lol!!!
thanks
well i think i just answered all my questions myself hahaha thanks for nothing guys!!! jk. Hope this helps someone.

It shouldn't, no files overlap in mod yet. If it works, profit and I'll release stable. If not, I'll work.
Tried but constant fc wiped cache dalvic reboot etc but still just fc
So exactly how do u enable this? Is there an on off toggle?

Use quick tile mod I posted in general. To activate, use sqlite editor. Go to setting storage -> settings.db -> search "vo" in global/system (whichever). One of those should pop up vowifi or something. Set it to 1 I believe and should walk through activation process when click again. If not, I'll keep up files in next beta
OP Updated, try beta 1.1

I need all the sprint APKs if you happen to have them. Bc when I dial *2 to go the sprint service thing in the phone it doesn't work... Neither does hands free activation... It just gets stuck there..
Edit: it's called "Sprint zone"

Let me know man
WiFi calling closes and will not turn on
So I tried this out using v1.1 and made the change in sqlite. When I first boot my phone I get two FC's from WiFi Calling and when I open WiFi calling and try to turn it on it just sits there and never turns on.
One other thing I just noticed is that when I go back into sqlite and look at the value of com.oem.smartwifisupport.vowifi_pref_state it has a value of 0 even though I changed it to 1. Every time I reboot and check the value it is set to 0.
If you happen to know how I can get the value to stick please let me know. That may be why this isn't working for me.

Me and splesh were working on this long before. I knew of it working in mystery rom before I even released this. This is working for temp fixes for AND2 ROM, stock (for now) and future possible fixes if needed.
I'll poke my head in here soon to help if I can. I can write a script that will force the entry in the SQL database as well if that will help.
If you get stuck somewhere or need help with something, let me know.

[Mod][Testing] Enable "Trusted Face" (face unlock) on lollipop

[Mod][Testing] Enable "Trusted Face" (face unlock) on lollipop
Recently TBO came out with a blacked out gapps, it also came with a folder called "optional", and it had files for enabling face unlock! I went ahead and gave it a shot putting them in their right olaces, rebooted, and trudted face showed up in smart lock under security, and i was able to set it up as well! I can now turn on my screen, then hold my phone up to my face and the fingerprint unlock will turn into a swipe and im in!
I went ahead and packaged the files separately in a flashable zip, available here, you may need to clear caches after flashing. This does work on touchwiz lollipop, I'm not sure about kitkat, it may also work on other lollipop roms, i dont have any devices to test it on though.
Here is a screenshot of the setting

and a video demonstrating it working
As you can see, the lockscreen is there and then switches to swipe. I havent tested it with other lockscreen types but i'd assume it'd look similar.
Its kind of finnicky and so far i havent found it to be very practical, maybe you all will have better success, still pretty neat.

I didn't actually test this to be quite honest, flashfire wouldnt flash any of the gapps package so i moved the files manually and that worked, i assumed a zip doing the same thing would work fine but that seems to be incorrect, thanks for testing though, i guess i'll add it to the main post.
Also yes, this works on touchwiz, i have a G900A which is unable to even install anything other than TW. The only reason I was looking for something like this is because samsung removdd faceunlock from touchwiz.

I've found that(suprise suprise) using the improve recognition feature helps quite a bit, just use it everywhere you gk from a few different angles and stuff, i've gotten it where as long as the lightings ok it unlocks even when i'm looking down at the phone.

Flashed in SS and cleared cache, rebooted fine. I go inst Security>Smart Lock but it looks grey out. I have my lockscreen set to Swipe\No Security. Should the lockscreen be set to something different?
...... I enabled FingerPrint and it worked!!! on TMS 2.something ...

You have to have some kind of lock already set, having swipe will not work as it needs something to fall back on.

I havent tried it, it uses google now though from what i read, i think it recognizes you saying ok google or it just uses that sample you record saying it to compare to you talking and unlocks.

I read that too, i use Google Now so setting it up should be no problem, i just have to resetup my voice profile. Just trying to finish working for today...
This doesn't seem to work for the S5 Active (rooted G870A running lollipop update OF3 courtesy @muniz_ri), neither manually installing the apk, nor flashing the zip via flashfire worked - manual install the first time made it show in the smartlock menu screen but gave the "unfortunately... stopped" message when trying to use it, and after flashing, it wasn't in the menu anymore at all, and a second try at manual install said it had installed, but it still wasn't actually there in the choices.
Did you check permissions? Sometimes ff doesn't set them correctly.
SM-G870A Peace

No, I didn't, only made the basic attempts to install. Also, I'm enough newbie to things Android that I wouldn't know what to check the permissions of (e.g. which components, if there are multiple components, I understand an apk is analogous to a zip file or archive), or what they should be (or should have been) set to vs. what they were....
