auto-rotation broke - Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having problems with auto-rotate on the Nexus 9? I am sure it worked, briefly, while I was setting up the tablet for the first time, but after installing a few apps (netflix, dropbox, adobe reader) and configed various email accounts and such, it stopped working. The tablet display is permanently in portrait mode, although if I play a movie in netflix it will force it to switch to to landscape whereupon it will be permanently stuck in landscape until the next shutdown and restart.
I've checked the setting on the drop down- auto-rotate is certainly enabled. I have tried disabled and re-enabling it, no difference.
I've downloaded a ball-in-labyrinth game, and I think that has indicated the issue- the sensors seem to be completely broken, no matter how I rotate the tablet the game thinks I have it in the same position and the ball just sits stuck in the upper corner of the game board.
I tried a full system restore, no difference.
I guess the next step is to call up google and go for an exchange.

Im having exactly the same issue. Except mine never worked. I would love to find out what really is the issue. I installed some sensor software and hardware seems to be the problem

Same issue here. Auto-rotation does not work.
If I want landscape mode, I have to launch a game, and then get back to the home screen...
5 minutes with the tablet and already I feel I have to exchange it.
Sensors are not working. Maybe this is a big issue for HTC. Maybe they got a bad batch from a provider.

Same problem, I solved by turning off the geolocation that seems to alter the accelerometer ... Hopefully the problem is software ... I wait for the OTA on November 12 before replacing

Same here, auto rotate does work when its wants to. Usually after reboot but gets stuck in either portrait of landscape and then is in that view mode forever more or until you reboot again
Will wait for Nov 12th update, hopefully will fix the notification light issue too

We hope to resolve, or that settling and clearing the various logs '' unlock the sensor''

Root of the problem
I also have this problem. Got N9 on preorder only for it to arrive yesterday in New Zealand. Shortly after setting up the device rotation stopped working. After searching the web I came across this.... "besttopics.net/link/185987_q-nexus-9-bug-screen-rotation" (sorry not able to post links).
It turns out that when ever the GPS radio fires up it shuts down the other sensors. Turn GPS off and rotation works fine. If its stuck you can turn the GPS off and reboot the device and things are back to normal.
This sounds like a hardware issue to me but will see what HTC say.

I have the Problem since yesterday . I activated Google now yesterday ,so this was my first guess. I just deactivated Google now and rebooted the device. It looks like that fixed it. Screen rotation works again!
Hope this helps.

Deactivating Google Now fixed mine too.

Count me in. It happened to me, twice. First time it happened, nothing seemed to help. Restarting didnt`t help. Shaking didn`t, either. So I installed a sensor monitoring app and it told me, there were no data at all from the rotation sensor. Two days later everything changed to normal behaviour, just like so. It started after watching a Netflix movie, btw.
The second time I could reactivate the sensor by starting an app called Bamboo Paper. This forced my Nexus 9 to go from landscape mode to portrait mode. And rotation worked fine since then.
So, at first glance, it seems to be a hardware problem. But then again, some apps seem to be able to trigger the `faulty` sensor. Thus, it might as well be a problem on the software side.
Let`s hope it will be solved by a future Lollipop update.
All the best from Germany,
knallgrau

It has happened again. And nothing seems to help. The Bamboo Paper app `trick` must have been just a coincidence.
I`ll call the Play Store tomorrow to have my Nexus 9 replaced.

Is anyone still having this problem after updating to 5.0.1?

Problem persists after update for me. I'll be returning soon for a number of build quality related issues.

The "shut-down-on-low-battery-when-battery-is-not-low-issue" has been almost resolved for me with the update to 5.0.1. But the rotation issue still persists. I have contacted the Play Store and immediately received an RMA. It seems to be a known issue with these htc devices. I hope the new unit does not show any of these problems.
Cheers,
knallgrau

Not sure what happened, but I tried to show someone the problem today and it was not a problem. I turned on Google Now and Location and it's working fine. Rotates without issue, for now. I'm sure that as soon as I hit the Post button, it will come back.
EDIT: I was right. It is back.

Yeah, I've found that turning Google Now on breaks screen rotation. After it breaks, I have to disable Google Now and Location Services, then reboot to get rotation working again. This has to be a glitch with 5.0.1, because this issue didn't exist for me on 5.0. Hopefully Google fixes this with the next update. I'm rather fond of Google Now, and not being able to use location services kind of hamstrings the device.

I know this is an old post but I have been having the same problems with auto rotation of the screen not working. I factory reset my device, auto rotation worked, and did a restore of the apps and it happened again. I then started over (factory reset) and reinstalled one google app at a time. I think I found the problem to be the Google Camera app. As soon as I installed it, the auto rotation stopped working (I could tell because when I went to the video setting on the Google camera app, it would not rotate to Landscape.). I uninstalled the Google camera update, force stopped the app, and disabled it. Now I have no problems with auto rotation of my screen. Also, noticed that the area around the camera would get quite hot after the Google camera app updated. Google needs to fix this for the N9!

Follow the steps I mention here, and see if it fixes it. If so, please star / +1 this issue, as I believe the issue is related to Google Play Services. I know this is not a fix as it renders all Google apps useless, but if we can get Google to address this, then THAT will fix the issue.
I too noticed the excessive heat, which would ALSO occur immediately after enabling Google Play Services - however HTC devices for some reason do heat up very quickly when using the camera (The One M7, M8 and M9 all have this issue, though a recent update for the M9 makes it less noticeable)

Have you had any success with getting this issue fixed? I duplicated your steps and had the same result.

I was able to fix my N9 by installing Android M. Google Play Services does not break auto rotate and my tablet works perfectly! If you are running Android 5.1.1, Google Play Services breaks auto-rotate. Google never fixed this for some reason. I suspect because they were focused on Android M. Make the change, you will be glad you did!

[Q] Auto screen rotation not working after game freeze

Hello guys,
Its my first post here, and my first android phone, and already i have a annoying problem.
I have searched these forums and many others but didnt find any similar problem or solution for it so here it is:
I bought Samsung Galaxy S2 15 days ago, from the local mobile service provider with contract. It runs OS Gingerbread 2.3.3 (adjusted to my mobile service provider settings), not rooted, under warranty.
Ive downloaded and installed many apps. Among them some free games from android market - demos, lite, free.
Sometimes, while i play, not often, game freezes. When it does only thing that is lest working is sound, and home button. Than i go to home screen, kill the game via android task manager, and than i see that screen auto rotation isnt working. Its stuck in landscape mode mostly, or portrait, even the auto rotation option is on. If it is in landscape mode, when i uncheck auto rotation then it goes to portrait mode. If i try some other game that supports sensor controls, like driving (accelerometer?).... u know...... when u tilt the phone to turn right or left......... and its not working.
Ive discovered 2 possible temporary solutions for the problem:
1. Turn off and on the phone, and its back to normal;
2. Wait for a 10 min or so, and its back to normal by itself;
I have one year warranty and i took the phone to service where they assumed that it is a software problem and flashed OS (ive recorded the behaviour of the phone with camera and showed to the service guy).
Ive got the phone back after a day with flashed OS. On a fresh instal of OS ive installed just one app, one game that it tends to freeze and cause problem - "Cordy" free trial. After just 20 sec of playing problem occurred again. It happened just that one time in last two days.
Any opinion on this matter is most welcome.
Tnx in advance.
If the phone is stuck then Restarting it is the option, not a temporary one. Now what's causing the freeze? I don't know.
Regards.
Tnx for answering. Im a bit disappointed with lack of answers because it just saying that my problem is not something common and with easy solution.
Im saying that restarting the phone is a temporary solution because i want find one that will prevent the problem for happening at all. Game freeze and accelerometer not working r connected in this case
It happened just now.
After that I checked in the app called sensor test that i instaled ffrom android market, and also that testing menu typing *#0*#.
in both cases it shows that acceleration sensor is not working. It came to normal by itself after 5 min or so.
What do u think? Software or hardware problem?
OK, update.
Its not caused just by the games, it happens even when not using any apps.
Accelerometer, orientation sensor and magnetic field sensor just stop working for a 5-10 min. Dont know whats causing this.
Tommorow is going back to service and im afraid that guys there r clueless.
Anyone have some suggestion pls.
Update on a problem.
My friend bought same phone from same service provider 3 days after i did and he is having exactly same problem.
He didnt had time before to test it but we did it yesterday, and after a hour of so trying to reproduce problem we succeded.
My phone is at service and i called today and the service guy said that the work on my phone is completed, they replaced sensors part (which apparanty comes with touch screen).
Im picking it up tommorow and i will test it and see if the problem is solved. But, im pesimistic.
How likely is that me and my friend have same hardware problem?
Here it is on video. Pls watch it and give any kind of oppinion, im getting desperate.

anyone else having auto rotate issues

Anyone having auto rotate problems after todays update? I have done everything I know to do. including a softreboot.
I am getting a bit frustrated here...
I have .11 installed and same problem.
After entering in sleep mode on dock, autorotation stop to work.
After some restart, auto-rotation work again.
Using Elixir, I can see that all sensor stop activity and for game using sensor like Riptide this doesn't work also.
I think about a firmware bug.
that is the only thing I can think of too as it happened after the .14 update.
I continue to have the same problem with .14
Re-boot can sometime restart the sensors, but after a time thay stop oto work and auto-rotate stop working.
I read on other forum that some other are also affected by this problem but seems we are very few.
KevTN, have you solve this problem?
I try cold reboot, reset factory but didn"t solve.
Same problem here, right out of the box browser never worked (HAD TO INSTALL CHROME) and after ics update sensors randomly stop working with no reason, elixir 2 says the only available sensor is microphone, sometimes it works afteer reboot other times it tooks 2 or 3 reboots, but after short time it stop working again
I've had a slightly different issue on and off where I have auto-rotate turned off but it still rotates.

[Q] Delayed screen rotation... all apps.

I've searched and haven't seen anyone post about this problem so I'm sure I'm looking at restoring everything back to stock and starting over... I'm hopeful though that someone might know where I could look to see about fixing this though and avoiding starting fresh.
I'm running 1.4.0, rooted, OTA. The problem is that whenever I switch orientation the NT's screen doesn't auto rotate for about 5 seconds. If I tap the screen it'll change then too. It doesn't matter what apps are running and still occurs after a reboot. Is there a sensitivity setting for the accelerometer somewhere? Perhaps a system app whose data I should clear?
Thanks!
For the record, it seems the latest version of Button Savior is to blame. If I freeze it the problem goes away. This is consistent with the finding of others posting elsewhere and in the reviews in the Market. I haven't tried but people are reporting that turning off the auto hide/swipe to show function fixes it too but I don't want it on my screen the whole time. Does anyone happen to have an APK of the previous version available?

Sensors stop working on Lenovo Yoga Book

Hi,
sorry for posting here without being a developer myself. It seems like nobody on the other boards knows enough about android to be able to help me with this particular problem - which is the most strangest problem with electronic devices I have experienced so far:
The tends to "loose" sensors after a while. This mostly happens when in sleep mode, but can also happen during charging, sometimes after half a day, sometimes after a few seconds. The following sensors are affected: Accelerometer (including auto rotation), light, magnetic field, orientation and GPS. The sound and battery sensors keep going.
Now, while this is very annoying, it is not really strange. The strange part is the following: Two times I thought to have found the problem and get it back working normally, only to learn better 2 days later:
1) when I uninstalled the Dolphin browser - which never really worked on this device - the problem disappeared for more than a day and I thought it solved. Alas, it returned about two days later. So, Dolphin may have been a cause, but something new jumped into its place after 2 days.
2) at some point, I decided to uninstall Smart Launcher 3, which I had installed right at the start. E voilĂ : problem gone, the sensors worked perfectly without a single glitch for 2 days. So Smart Launcher must have been the culprit, right? -> wrong! Two days later the problem reappeared, worse than ever! All it takes now is putting the tablet to sleep for ~ 1 minute and the sensors are gone. If I want to use the sensors, I have to either prevent the sleep mode or restart the tablet whenever I want to use it.
So far, I haven't found another solution to make it work for 2 days (or even longer than a couple of minutes). But anyway, it doesn't make any sense. Why would uninstalling an app make the problem disappear, but only for 2 days? Then the same story again, when uninstalling another app?
Any kind of hint or suggestion is greatly appreciated, I am desperate and have no more ideas what else to try. All pleasure in the device is gone, it's just frustrating.
Thank you a 7'200 times (seconds in 2 hours)!
- spitfire
It just got more weird. I figured out, that enabling the power save mode caused the tablet to work somewhat normally, meaning sensors would still work after sleeping most of the time.
But guess what: 3 days later even that workaround doesn't work anymore. Restarting the tablet brings the sensors back, but switching the screen off (sleep mode) for 5 seconds is enough to disrupt them, always. This doesn't make any sense at all. Why does the device always find a way to counteract my workarounds after 2-3 days? Is the thing alive and doing it on purpose? It starts to drive me really mad :crying:
Please, does anybody have an idea? I am looking for
ways to restart the sensors without having to reboot the tablet. There must be some service to kill and restart, right?
ways to identify the cause of the problem. There must be some kind of event log where the sensor crash and what happened before is recorded.
I am sure somebody must know about those things, at least in this forum. Otherwise I don't know what to do, I run out of workarounds, the evil device wins this battle and will soon target the world - welcome Skynet.
Thanks very much for any kind of help
Pesche
edit: I noticed that when the problem occurs, it takes the tablet longer to wake up than the few times when everything is fine. This indicates that there is something going wrong with the wake up process. It must be possible to see in some kind of log what exactly happens, but my sparse knowledge of android isn't deep enough. I already tried OS monitor to access the catlog and I do see some warnings (pink W), but they don't tell me much. E.g.: OpenGLRenderer: Failed to choose config with EGL_SWAP_BEHAVIOR_PRESERVED, retrying without. Or: Syste: ClassLoader referenced unknown path: /mnt/expand/.../com.eolwral.osmonitor... (which rather sounds like a problem of OS monitor itself than a problem of the system).
i installed termux... ran top... i see a /system/vendor/bin/sensorhubd
i assume thats the process not "waking up"
is there a way to monitor that? or to tell it to restart? so we dont have to reboot everytime.............

Question Random reboot - any Pixel 6 (non pro) users affected?

Wazzup.
Over at the Pixel 6 Pro fair, we have quite the number of people having problems with random reboots. We are trying to narrow it in - Android12? Pixel 6? Software? Hardware?
So - anyone here with the same set of problems? Or does the Pixel 6 not have that kind of issue?
For reference: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/random-reboots.4353231/
I have gotten several random reboots as well. 256gb seafoam pixel 6. In particular, I was using "Frep" automation app (unrooted, used pc to start server) to do repetitive image searches in a game. Also the phone was sitting on a wireless charger while doing this. I noticed my phone felt pretty warm, wonder if it could be overheating?
Could be a naughty 3rd party app. Have you tried safe mode?
I posted this here:
P6 Bluetooth Problems
My p6 will see most some of my Bluetooth devices (laptop, tablet, TV, earbuds) . It pairs with the earbuds, but everything else it will try and pair, usually does not. If and when hen it does pair, that pairing is dropped dropped within 5 secs...
forum.xda-developers.com
My random reboots (or crashes that forced me to reboot) almost entirely stem from the wifi+bluetooth implementation. I found a sure-fire way to crash it during setup. Without word vomiting here, connecting the P6 with and to other devices has proved more difficult than any previous Pixel (for me).

Not yet. It's also hard to "force" it (the reboots, I am not able to replicate it manually). Yesterday it just randomly happened whilst the phone laid idle next to me, thrice at the morning, about one time through late afternoon, then one time evening. I just notice the screen lighting up, then the Google logo comes, meaning the phone restarted.
I'm also pretty sure that Bluetooth/Wifi settings differed when the reboots happened, ergo at some times bluetooth was on, then when it rebooted, bluetooth was off. At no time when the reboots happened had I a bluetooth device connected. WiFi was online though, all the time.
What all the reboots have in commong though (at least the ones where I am concerned), is that the phone is just laying next to me, or somewhere, being in idle - doing as far as I know, nothing. It never happened when I used the phone or put it under load, so my P6 never "crapped" out under me. That's why I am not that concerned about this as of now, but it's certainly a nuisance to unlock the phone every time with my darn pin.
(Concerning 3rd party app) - I'd say that's unlikely. I copied my files over from my Pixel 4 XL and have not yet added one singular other app to my P6 Pro, so it should have gone naughty before my transfer over.
Hi! I experienced a big crash on the pixel 6. When I was configuring telegram, the app crashed and then the screen got black. After a minute it rebooted to the Google logo with a loading bar underneath. It was blocked in that state, but I could reboot it with volume up + power button.
I was pretty scared as the usual button down + power button didn't do anything lol
12 (SD1A.210817.036) on my pixel 6, occurred randomly when opening camera app. Happend 7-10 times.

Odd. I never had a problem whilst using the phone, my phone only rebooted when laying idle (even though today I had no reboots at all, alas I didn't use the phone much, maybe 2h SoT without any heavy lifting).
Something in android 12 is bugging around, maybe we have to open support tickets.

I just talked for a while with a Google rep and he said that they are not aware of any reboot problems, no people over at Google Forums have reported such a thing. "We do not monitor Reddit or XDA" - so he said he opened a support ticket to the responsible team and they would look into it, he also asked that I / we report/feedback this under -> Settings -> Tips & Support -> Feedback.
We also talked about a lens flare problem, that at least the Pixel 6 Pro has. If you shot some photos where the sun is directly shining into the camera, you might want to re-check them. Most of mine have either some sort of big circular green dot in them, or a big beam of light like in a phone with a very bad HDR processing. It seems to be some sort of software glitch, he also reported that.
So hopefully those things can get fixed.
This was the follow-up email:
Thank you for contacting Google support.
This email is regarding the chat conversation we had earlier today, I'm sorry we weren't able to complete it. Hence I wanted to follow up via email to ensure all your queries have been answered.
Please re-launch the camera app and check if the issue is fixed.
Please be assured our developer team is working on this to fix it as soon as possible. We would really appreciate your kind understanding as we work on this to fix it for you.
If there is anything apart from this that needs clarification, please feel free to reply back to this email. I'll be more than happy to assist you.
Thanks!

I'm having similar restarts while phone is sitting on a table doing nothing. Tried a factory reset and was fine until overnight on charge and it happened again.
Also have had a few times where wifi has stopped working for some reason. Not sure if related.
Not had any reboots but quiet a few app crashes in especially FB will be scrolling away and bang just closes also Amazon app ,
Well that was interesting.. When it rebooted that time, it gave me an error screen saying it could not load and may be corrupt. I had two options, try again and factory reset. Try again got me back running, but I'm wondering do I got as defective device now.. or if it's software related.
So after a lot of messing around, I think I have narrowed down what may be causing my reboots. It only seems to happen when I am using "Frep" to play macros on a game while charging my phone.. the phone gets pretty hot, and reboots when I tap the screen or try to swipe home or recent apps. Maybe its overheating, or maybe its "Frep" playing naughty.. but Frep did work perfectly fine on my old $200 used Nord N10 5g. Will update if it reboots while not doing this.
no reboots or crashes so far, not doing any gaming - but using phone for email, surfing, whatsapp etc and also a work profile for MS outlook and teams.
I have/had similar issues with my Pixel 6 (128GB - europe unlocked).
I was transferring old data via cable from my old (Xiaomi Mi A1) to the Pixel 6. This resulted in sluggish performance, crashes every 15 minutes. The crashes would randomly occur and behave mostly like this:
Try to unlock phone with fingerprint sensor
Fingerprint sensor lights up, nothing happens, no haptic response
Swiping up to the PIN entry. Enter PIN and hit enter. Nothing happens. Now freeze.
Screen turns black and it takes phone to reboot on average ~7minutes
Factory Reset; Installed apps manually (standard messaging apps, no games etc), better performance, problem persists
Factory reset; boot into safemode. It now took way longer to provoke the issue. But it still happened.
After this I contacted the customer service and they will provide me with a replacement. But now after a night of idle, the phone was working for 3-4 hours without any issue at all with most of my apps installed. It just now went into a random reboot (could only notice because it asked for PIN because of the reboot). But not the 8 minute blank black screen type of reboot.
I am really unsure what is the issue at hand here. But have to say that experience is less than ideal.
Mine just happened last night, not charging or running anything 3rd party apps (all from App Store). I tried to use the camera after eating dinner and noticed that double clicking power button doesn't open the camera anymore. After unlocking the phone it appears that the phone has restarted.
Is anyone running Private DNS on their system like Adguard DNS or NextDNS? I did some searching and people reported some private DNS were causing Android to crash. It was suppose to be fixed in previous Android versions but it could be back again.
I haven't noticed any random reboots (and the lock screen will require a pin to be entered after reboot and says this on the screen, so you should know the phone rebooted). I've had the P6 since the official release date. In fact, I haven't restarted the phone in days.
I run a wide variety of apps. Some from the Play store and some sideloaded. I think that any reboot issues are probably app related. Remember that A12 is very new and the are surely still some compatibility issues that app developers haven't found/fixed yet.
