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.

Hello everyone !
After I tryed all night all options I decided to ask you about some advise or trick how to fix my problem.
I bought Cubot GT72 before 2 months. Its still new and everything works fine till today ( actually yestarday ).
The phone is with Android 4.2.2 , its rooted. I was listening yestarday music on the headphones and I wanted to make lauder the music with the hardware button and .... not working. First I thought that the phone needs restart or smothing , but after restarting the volume control with the hardware buttons Up and Down was still not working. Then I decided to make factory data reset so to have all my factory settings back. After factory reset still not working. When I press the volume button Up or Down - nothing happens. Can you please help ? What can be the problem ?
The phone never fell, was working fine all. Is it possible this to be because of some setting which I changed at the hidden menu or something else ?

Hey guys .....
Last month i broke my phone screen ....
Everything was going well until the last 10 days ....
All apps are crashing and the phone can't run any sort of music (even in the settings if i try to play ringtone it says error)
If i do a factory reset the issue is solved for some hours and it appears again .....
I did a lot of factory resets and the problem still appear again and again
So is that because the screen breaking (because i can see the board from the hole) or it's software problem ?
Please help .....

Might be a specific app that is causing problems. When the problem happens again just reboot into safemode by long tapping on the restart button or power button. And then see if the problem still persists.
