Hi All,
Recently my Tilt started rotating the screen back and forth as though the slider has been extended then back in...but i'm not even toughing the phone!
Has anyone seen this?
It renders the phone useless as it's always changing one way or another.
I've searched and found (for an old rom) a suggestion to disable device msi1 (oem_misc.dll) but that didnt work. Obviously just setting the display to portrait or landscape doesnt work either.
More immediately, Can anyone tell me a way to stop the auto-rotation or lock the display in portrait mode?
Secondly is there a permanent fix? How can I tell if this a sensor problem (ie. something in the slider malfunctioned and is sending the signal that the slider is out...then in...then out...) or a software problem?
Any help MUCH appreciated!

I am wondering if anyone else has seen this. When I am in email and slide the device to go to landscape mode it changes fine. If I stay in email and go back to portrait, I lose half the screen as it stays in landscape. I fix it by closing email so it is not a huge deal but can be a PITA at times. Anyone? Suggestions?
Hi, I've started to have this problem yesterday afternoon and I don't know what to do.
Whenever I turn the screen on everything is distorted, with white and black lines going all across the screen. After putting the phone in sleep mode and going back to the lock screen multiple times, the screen fixes itself. When I look at the screen in landscape mode the same thing happens. I'm not sure if this is a hardware problem or something else because sometimes when I drag the notification bar down, that seems to fix the screen itself. Any solutions? I tried searching all over for an answer but couldn't find any.
Thanks.
bump..Someone help please?
Sounds like a hardware problem, loose cable of some sort I would guess. Try to wipe and flash any 1.6 roms to rule out the bad 2.1 rom. Not likely but worth a try.
Good luck.
So I managed to drop my phone the other day. I've noticed that since the drop it wont rotate to portrait mode. I'm 99.9% positive that it is a hardware problem. If I hold the phone upright and open the keyboard about 1/4th of an inch it will rotate. So I'm guessing that its a problem within.
So now for the question. On CM5.0.8T4 Is there a way to disable the rotation when the keyboard is out? Basically giving the accelerometer full control of orientation.
Sorry if this is in another place, I've been searching for days now and haven't found any solution.
Thanks.
Anyone? I'm interested in this as well...
well most of the time i have rotation turned off but today i noticed when i had it turned on that it would switch into landscape mode rather easily when i was holding the phone upright if i were to tilt it the slightest bit to the right or left. does anyone else notice this
any fix for it? not too big of a deal but can be annoying at times
Hi, I suddenly see that my lock screen (always on display) is switching to landscape even though the screen rotation is locked.
Once I use my finger print, the phone is switching back to portrait mode...
Did anyone experience the same? Never seen something like that. Any solution to keep it always in portrait mode?
Thanks,
Gil.

Disregard. It was a setting of the always on display. Was not familiar with that and it switched to landscape by mistake somehow.
