i have the same issue.
after some testing, it's related to the GPS (or more broadly to location).
whenever an app calls the GPS (like opening gmaps), gyroscope, accelerometer, gravity and magnetic field sensors seem to shut down, which means that the screen will no longer autorotate (among other things)
restarting the tablet seems to be do the trick until another app calls GPS again.
BUT after using it for some time, the sensors eventually shutdown and only a factory reset clears the issue. (in which case you restart the cycle over and over again).
for those who report the issue at first boot, it's probably due to restoring apps and having some apps call gps automatically at boot to determine location.
anyway it seems to be software based.

So she resolved by turning off the GPS? Google is aware of the bug?
Yup, I have the same issue with auto rotation. Hopefully a software update gets this fixed asap

I did change, I think that unfortunately both Hardware
The new Nexus 9 works fine: D
In my case activating Google now caused the trouble with the screenrotation.
Since deactivating it and reboot no more problems with screen rotation
I have tried all the above - hard reset, disable GPS, disable Google Now, etc., and still can't get auto-rotate to work. Any other ideas?
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!

Wow! I think you figured it out. I uninstalled Google Camera using Titanium Backup and my auto rotation works again. Decided to install it back from the Play Store, and sure enough, I lost auto rotation again. Leaving it uninstalled, might install another camera app from the Play Store, just to set what happens. Thanks!
Update : So after playing with it some more, it looks like using Google Maps breaks the Auto Rotation. Clearing it out of recent apps, and waiting a couple minutes, the auto rotation comes back.

Anybody have an issue with random wake ups? I have noticed if my phone is just sitting itself it turns on itself as if I were getting a text or a call and ends up being nothing, I know my proximity sensor works well during calls, but can not figure out why the screen wakes. Anyone know a fix or a setting for this?

This just started happening to me today. Not sure what's going on. Nothing is different, stock rooted rom. No new apps. Same case.
Check for wake lock and clear the cache on any apps that look like they are causing wakelock and reboot phone
Did all that, I'm waiting to see if it does it again.
Okay found a new one this morning. Looks like something to do with Google maps
Edit: definitely not Google maps. AudioOut_3 is the culprit. I looked on Google and it happens a lot on a variety of different phones. There are a lot of different ideas on what it is too. Some say it's ringtone related, some say it's music player related. Anyone have any ideas?
This is after clearing maps
After listening to music force close the app you are using, after playing games or anything else that uses media services, sometimes even after task manager ends the app for more resources the services stay on. I think its so the the os feels more responsive. It's like HTC camera, launch it from a clean reboot and it will take a lot longer for the first startup then it will for subsequent start ups.
That's good advice, but this screen shot was taken before opening anything, fresh reboot, about 30 minutes on but screen off.
Well I can't think of anything else that uses audioout_3
It must be starting up after boot-up. My main player is playerpro.
I think I discovered my issue, the past week I've been flashing different roms and I have started using the superwipe zip. I had issues with each rom I flashed. Last night I reflashed the stock rom, only wiping and not using superwipe and it seems to have fixed whatever issues I was having. I'm not saying it's the superwipe, but I may have a bad download of it, or it doesn't like my phone. I'll be keeping an eye on it for awhile and report back.
Ok scratch that. It must be an app doing it. I think it might be a game called 'plague inc.' it doesn't seem to affect battery life, but it is annoying.

I had similar issue,
in my case, mp3 downloader's ad Notification was waking up my screen,
I found it out by using app "Wakelock detector" WLD at GooglePlay
you need to check for "full wakelocks", check the screenshot
SD Card Corruption
I have had the same issue on my EVO 4G LTE and just got a replacement device... still having the same problem. MY SOLUTION: Removed my SD card which recently was corrupted. This fixed my issue. Apparently the phone would register an SD card inserted every 20 seconds or so because it couldn't fully read it, waking it from sleep mode. Hope this helps!

Ok i had 4.1.1 for 2 months and almost everything were great but since 4.1.2 upgrade i noticed a couple of minor issues
The biggest and most annoying is gallery lag. This happens only when wifi is on since gallery is for some unknown reason using wifi all the time
. Every sync option ( google account,samsung account and dropbox ) is turned off as well as backup to google servers is turned off. Apps such as facebook that use gallery are not installed. Like i said turning wifi off is smooth and great but really i dont wanna have to turn wifi on off all the time
. Mind you i did an OTA upgrade then a factory reset and the issue persisted. Then i used odin to flash again ( cleared dalvik cache, factory reset ) and the issue is still there
Using quickpic wifi or not is almost lag free but i really like and want to use the stock gallery
Another minor issue is haptic feedback. For some strange reason while for almost all the actions is off when i long press to move an icon or widget haptic feedback is working ( is turned off on settings and i also set the intensity to the lowest ). Not a big issue but still annoying
Aside those 2 issues ( and occasional UI stopped when i turn NFC on ) 4.1.2 has been good so far
So anyone has any similar problems and any suggestions ?
I couldn't get watchon app working so I tried installing a similar app from the play store called gravity. It basically turns your watch on and off based on the positioning and motion of the watch. I can get it to work, the problem I'm having is that no matter what settings I try, I can't get it quite perfect. A lot of times the watch ends up turning on when I don't want it to, and turns off when I don't want it to. I've tried playing around with all the settings but can't seem to get it just right. I was wondering if anybody else has any experience with this app and what the optimal settings were?

I haven't tried that particular app, but found Shake in the Play Store, which can be configured to launch OClock when the TS is shaken. It isn't perfect either, as sometimes there is a couple seconds delay before launching the clock, and also the setting to Run as Service sometimes gets turned off. I got around the last part by using Tasker to run Shake at boot, which seems to then turn the Service on.
Hey Guys -
I recently upgraded to a Galaxy S9+ and overall love it despite not being able to root. For the past couple of weeks, I've had a three very annoying issues though. I've tried many things to resolve, but so far can't figure out solutions. Below are thr issues and what I've tried to fix each. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
1. Random ads open in default browser (Firefox) no matter what I'm doing / what app I'm in
It doesn't matter what app I'm in, every 5 min or so Firefox opens on top of whatever I'm currently using without warning and displays an ad in a webpage. I use the Ublock tool in Firefox so sometimes it opens to a blocked webpage
What I've tried to fix:
- Closed all tabs, cleared history / personal data, then force quit Firefox
- Restarted phone
- Tried many malware apps like Malwarebytes but scans come in clean
- Uninstalled apps not installed from Google Play (only a couple)
- Put all apps not needed to run in background asleep
- Disabled notifications for apps I don't need
2. Display configs randomly apply
I have my screen set to turn off after 2 minutes and also have "always on display" enabled during the daytime which is different than simply leaving display on. Currently, though; after 2 min the screen just dims - that's it. If I hit a button to turn screen off it works, but if I place it on charger after doing this, the lock screen appears and it just Dom's after 2 minutes too. Basically, always on display only works after I press a button to power display off
What I've tried to fix:
- Verifying settings we're correct
- Setting configs differently then reverting them
- Disabled all MacroDroid / AutoMagic scripts
- Installed Greenify to put apps to sleep thinking one may be keeping device awake
3. Secure Startup Reverts
My work uses InTune and requires strict policies and settings in order for sync to work - one of these is Secure Startup where you must enter your passcode after reboot. Every couple of days or after a reboot, this setting Reverts from being enabled to disabled this making my phone daily compliance and stopping sync of work stuff. I must manually reenable it, then jump through hoops to get it compliant again. This has been an issue since I got the phone.
Any suggestions for any of the above?
Thanks!!
You could have a malware in your phone. When I had my note 8 I experienced something similar with the ads, it was very annoying. Long story short... I had to do a factory reset
I agree with TonyGzl92. It is probably Malware.
If the problem persist and you have deleted all installed apps and still get the problem you will ned to perform a factory reset and watch the phone after every app you install.
I had the issue with the screen just dimming instead of going completely off, and it was a conflict with an app I had installed. Pretty sure it was a Play Store app, but it's been long enough I no longer remember what app it was.
Anyone using smarthome devices that are using the geolocation of the phone to be triggered?
I have Phillips hue and Netatmo welcome and cannot see me when coming home except if my screen is opened and also open google maps and update manual my location.
Tried giving access to these apps not to sleep or use battery optimization but still nothing.
Anyone else?
I use a Tado system and I have noticed on the odd occasion it doesn't know I'm home with this phone, though setting the app to be exempt from throttling of data and exempt from power management seems to almost have resolved the issue.
Could you please share how to do that of throttling of data?

Has this been resolved by anyone?
I too have the Tado and it only updates my location when I open Maps and physically click on the blue dot to zoom in on my location or e.g. start navigating.
I've tried all the obvious like disable maps and tado battery optimisation, allow background data and what have you. On the Mate 10 pro this worked flawlessly btw so this has to be m20p related...
Together with the not too good curved screen (letters/graphics falling off), green tint, poor face and fingerprint recognition this is for me a reason to maybe get rid of this phone...
So you have already gone to:-
Battery settings, more battery settings, turn on "stay connected when device sleeps"
I use TADO with Mate20x AL00 and that fixed it for me.
Also make sure you have toggled the app power settings then it should be ok.
Hi, yes, 'stay connected when sleeps' is on.
What app power settings toggle do you mean, under special access, battery optimization?
In the meantime I've put Automate to work (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.llamalab.automate&hl=en) and made this little flow that seems to be a good work around. Starting Tado in the last block is there now only to check if it works, nothing else.
Update: this is a workflow that works really well. Let me know if you want more info.
