I have just updated to ICS (locked and not rooted at this time).
When I plug in the charger all of the controls act as if I am touching some other part of the screen! Even the lock screen is goofy. I cannot pull an icon into the ring. It moves but will not go all the way?!
Any ideas??
the phone works this way in Charge Only, if it is in Sync or if only a charger is connected . . . . Debug is on.
That's strange, I can't speak for locked and rooted as I am unlocked and rooted but back when I was on 2.3 I installed a app from the market that caused me to lose multi touch. I believe it was a launcher I installed that caused the issue. I would check your apps.

I tried to use the phone as a remote control for my TV once. And now, it always shows up in my notification bar. I've tried to force STOP it in the Application manager, but it turns on automatically even after restarting the device.
Go into WatchOn settings and turnoff the show in notifications setting. Also, while there, turn off on lock screen.

Disabled it for the mean time until they make an update to easily turn it off, this will our batteries!
Hi,
has someone else problems with the screen rotation?
Actually I like to use macdroid to control when screen rotation is enabled. It will activate based on where I am and what app I use.
So the rotation is usually portrait fixed but when I use youtube ie. the screen will rotate so I can use landscape there too.
The problem is that either by using macdroid or even when I enable/disable rotation too often it won't rotate anymore.
I have to restart the device to have it working again.
Can you confirm this? Or is this just my device?

Nothing wrong here. Turned on the auto rotate, went to youtube, played a video in portrait mode. Then rotated the device and the video went into landscape.

Try turning rotation on and off several times and then see if rotation still works after you turned it on.

Well, this sounds like app specific problem. Don't use macdroid for such tasks and u're ready to go.

As said it even happens when I press the tiles button too often. So its not a problem of the app.
But maybe the device is broken. I'll try to reset it and see if the problem exists if a few more people can confirm its not a problem for them I guess.
No issues whatsoever with screen rotation here. Sorry.

Yes i had the same issue! Each time the problem appear i have to reboot my phone !
I install phone tester on play store, and it seems that accelerometer stop working (it wait for data)
Moreover, i had the problem in Safe Mode (power on Button -> long press on Shut Down -> 'Do you want to restart in Safe mode' -> Yes)
I think if your screen didn't rotate in safe mode, the problem is not a third app.....
For my phone i will bring it to warranty tomorrow

This is another issue which looks to me like a software bug in the system itself.

You can try something else: on google map, is the compass working?
On my previous nokia 7 plus, both compass and screen rotation didn't work properly.
I just change it this morning on the shop i bought it, and the compass is working on the Nokia 7 Plus i had now
Hardly I have to calibrate often. I guess my device is broken so I will return it too.
The new one i obtain this morning already have the last version of android (8.1 instead of 8.0 for the first one), i think the second one was not from the same manufacturing batch.
I hope you will obtain a new phone or a quick reparation!
I got my replacement phone and after some testing I can say that the initial device was faulty. The new one does not show the problems mentioned.
Even after setting auto-Rotation to off, after a while, my Note 9 suddenly goes off Rotation lock for some reason.
Anyone else experiencing this?

Always the first thing I turn off when I get a new phone. My phone has stayed locked.
Seems like it's Bixby (motherf**ker) causing it. I installed a rotation lock app then set it to override the system.
When I accidentally triggered Bixby, I got a toast notification saying the rotation lock app overrode the orientation change request.

Having this problem without understanding the reason so far
Play store rotation control pro. Problem solved.
Hi, I'm having some issues with Spotify.
Everytime I turn off my screen, the app gets put to sleep and the music stops.
As soon as I wake up my screen it's back working.
Any idea how to fix it?
I'm on optimised battery, and the all is set to not be put to sleep. Not sure what else I can do?
Thanks!
One idea - in the battery stats click on Android System and check whether you have "allow background activity" on or off. I've tried this and with this being switched off I had a similar experience with Spotify. Also - the galaxy buds started disconnecting from the phone with this setting on.
Hope this can help. Cheers
I removed battery optimization from Spotify. Also allow background activity.
You can find it in settings, apps, Spotify
