This problem has annoyed me for way to long, so i'll pay $50 USD to anyone who can help me.
No matter what i do, i cannot get screen/auto rotation to work properly on any ICS rom. It will stay portrait mode no matter what. Auto-rotation works fine on any Froyo/Gingerbread rom i use. Flashed every ICS rom available. I've tried the following:
1. Turning on auto-rotation in Settings>Display
2. Toggling auto-rotate in Settings>Display while the phone is turned landscape
3. Toggling notification widget orientation icon
4. Reflashing/Wiping everything/flashing and wiping (don't get me started)
The only app that actually rotates for me is Camera.
Accelerometer Values app from market tells me everything is fine.
wow dude i don't really know what to say. I did try team icssgs's RC3.1 a while back and everything worked great. Actually, i can even say i was rather impressed on how ICS handled screen rotation. Had that turning iphone-like effect and worked every single time perfectly, no matter what i was running, as long as it was enabled on settings.
Any chance you might have some app interfering with screen rotation? like some toggle widget or something?
Wish you good luck mate

nope happens on any newly flashed fresh ICS rom
Lol, I'm very doubtful that my solution will work, but if you're desperate enough you can try and who knows, I might win 50 bucks
First answer me this: On your last Gingerbread Rom, you had the ability to turn off all animations in the Settings -> Display menu.
Did you turn off all animations?? If yes, read my solution. If no, stop reading here
So, you answered yes. Here's my proposal:
1. Flash a Gingerbread ROM again. Turn ON all animations.
2. Flash your desired ICS ROM

on gingerbread, i would always turn on all animations
but that wouldnt do anything since flashing a new rom wipes everything
What launcher are u using?
Howdy!
On ICSSGS 4.2 and Semaphore 9.0 the turning works fine for me. That is in apps that support it. The launcher for instance doesnt - the clock does.
You could try installing the ES Task Manager and check whether the turning is on there. Also you could check appropriate apps for your Kernel/Rom -- sometimes you can turn stuff on and off there, as well.

I'm on THS Experimental Build, but Build 16 should be the same.
1. You didn't mention this, but Settings > Launcher > General > Auto-Rotate Screen
This is using Trebuchet Launcher, but it should be similar on any other ICS Launcher, under the Settings "Interface" list.

Likely its because of the changes in windoworientationlistener.Java its been changed to absolute values so now you have rotation_angles instead of rotation_mode where sensor libs would return 2 3 4 5 depending on degrees 0 90 180 270 now it looks for actual degrees rotationinstead of numbered modes
try ics slim. Settings -ASS - General UI - set rotation delay. and ofcourse set on the rotation.

I have the exact same problem. I have tried everything I found on these forums and still no resolve. I use semaphore kernel 1.0.0 and ICS Slim rom on a samsung galaxy s phone. I can see the explination for our problem but what is the solution ? How can we correct those variables ? Thank you in advance !

Does your accelerometer work in any games on ics?

I wish I had tried some games... all I can say for certain is that it works in the camera app and sensor test apps like GPS Status. So it seems like it comes down to the system UI not interpreting the sensor readings correctly.

I suggest you try it out with some games too.. coz if it's a rom issue, it can't be with every rom..
Even the games don't directly access the accelerometer.. Goes through the kernel which controls the hardware.. If it works in games, should work in the roms which have accelerometer working fine..
This annoyed me for a while... It worked fine on THS ROM with Trebuchet launcher. I switched to AOKP, and couldn't get it to work, tried a few others that all failed. After a couple of months, I'm back to CM9 on nightlies (with Semaphore 1.2.0) and rotation works perfectly, couldn't be happier.
Maybe try CM9?

Confirmed the accelerometer DOES work in games.
So it works in the camera and 3rd party apps like sensor tests and games. Does not work in any launcher, the stock browser, gallery, or other system apps.
Also tried the the latest Team Nyx release - not working there either. I've tried the latest CM9, ICS333, AOKP... it doesn't work in any of them.
Hi, can i ask,
1. Can i just change the lcd density from build.prop if im using rooted stock 4.03 lpf? If i change to 240, any problem will occur?
2. How can i set stay awake when usb plugged in this rom?
3. Do we have crt animation? Is it samsung ruin it and have to wait them fix it?
Thx everyone
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app
Ofcourse you can ask
1. Use ROM Toolbox Lite (Free) Application from market. Now go to Performance Tab & You can tweak there the lcd density. If you change density, usually nothing as such happens. Except that some widgets which are built on particular density crash. I had weather widget which used to work only in 320 density. So now it doesn't work in 280 (which is my current). I killed the widget now
What is the worst I have faced by changing the dpi? FCs, Widget Crashes & Once a bootloop. All three can be resolved by one thing: Flash back the ROM xD
2. Another app called as smart app protector (free) is in market. I guess they have a tab called 'Screen' through which you can set LCD to be awake when a particular app is running. I hope this should resolve. Not sure on this though.
3. It depends on which ROM you are in. Yes, we do have CRT animations. I am on Asylum ICS. I do have it.
If you want to go ahead and manually enable it: http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/enable-crt-animation
this should help you get some idea on how to.
Well, there ain't any shortcut to the manual trigger bouy!

hope you could make a video of it, others says it lags while others says it's smooth..i just don't wanna mess with my current set up
it lags when u first boot it, but after settling down its smooth enough
sorry cant make a video, but you can always do a nandroid backup and give it a try
I've tried it and it's definitively slower than CM 10, the thing that lags more is the keyboard indeed on fast writing it misses a lot of letters
THe ICS version was much faster... this one is too laggy.

u dont have to flash the gapps, its included in the rom
kernel - matrix 22.5 cfs works very well, i dint bother trying other kernels
65fps would you use up more battery so i dont use it

Hi does anyone know how to change the camera mode (Intelligent Auto+) when accessed from the lockscreen camera switch? My camera app is set to "Normal", for I'm not comfortable with using Intelligent Auto+, but when accessed from the lockscreen, it goes to the Intelligent Auto+ mode.
Also related - possible to change the default camera app?
Thanks!

in the camera app under settings,
click quick launch and set your desired mode
That setting don't work - it just allows me to choose whether
1) capture a shot right after launching
2) launch camera IN INTELLIGENT Auto mode
3) launch video cam and start shooting
4) launch video cam
5) remove lockscreen camera launcher
None of this option allows me to launch camera in NORMAL mode.
Any other ideas!
------------------------------------------
Sony Xperia Z C6603 Purple | RomAur 1.1
I opened tickets on the realme website but I'd like to give an overview here as well:
Problems I encountered (EU version):
1. Settings reset
I often notice the camera taking videos with 30fps only. When I adjust the settings to 60fps, after a while it seems to revert back to 30
Developer settings, e.g. turning off the transition animations also reset (without rebooting the device!) after about a day
At last, the dark mode under 'realme labs' also reverts back after a short while. That's so frustrating!
2. Cloned apps
When using the app Cloner, the cloned app doesn't show up under different launchers, e.g. lawnchair
3. Apps in background / RAM
I have 12GB of RAM, it should be more than enough to hold most of the apps I'm using... However, when switching apps it happens far too often that my apps restart from scratch. Is there no intelligent background app management for people with lots of RAM?
4. Dual WiFi mode
Seems to be available on the CN rom only? No option for me under settings / WiFi
5. Screen recorder
The build in screen recorder doesn't capture software audio
6. Turning the phone, eg. Horizontal mode is often not recognized
Did other people here encounter these problems as well? Did you find a solution?

1. Same with the camera, I noticed that it resets after a while, I set 4K/60 and i come back later on 1080p/30. Hope this bug will be fixed with the next realmeOS.
Haven't tried changing animation speed, but other developer options as debugging and forced resize stay selected for me. Dark mode too, have it enabled since day 1 and it never deactivated, there may be some problems with your rom.
2. Haven't used cloned apps, if that's the case it's a bug they need to fix
3. It depends on the apps, I agree that having more ram available it should keep as much as it can in memory, but it's a common thing in Chinese ROMs that they'll close out heavy apps. I still don't think of this as too much of a problem, if you really need some apps open you can simply "lock" them in multitasking.
4. Yup, no dual WiFi for me on EU device, guess we are cut out.
5. It's one of the feature coming in RealmeOS along with recording with front camera during screen recording.
6. Never had any rotation problem
For sound at screen recorder go settings->system apps (only option from microphone though)
