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 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!
anyone have any problems while surfing the net in landscape mode where it flips from left handed to right handed? (upside down) Mine seems to do that once in a while and didn't know if anyone elses did that or If im pushing something on accident
Hey guys. By now, I'm sure most of you are probably familiar with the screen alignment issue (where, sometimes when you go to click on something, it clicks something above or below and is about 1/3 of an inch off).
Well, I've noticed something on my device and was wondering if anybody else has had the same experience. If I have the screen brightness all the way down, I can use the screen for quite some time before this happens. Then, I just hit the power button, put it to sleep, and then wake it back up and the problems corrected. What's weird is, if I have the brightness all the way up (like when I'm outside on a sunny day), it takes far less time for the misalignment issue to show it's ugly face.
Basically, what this says to me is that it might be related to a heat issue from the screen itself. Just wondering what everybody else has noticed.

Yes I have notice it too with the same setting but didn't think much of it and just put it to sleep and woke it up and worked after that.
dont know if its a heat issue, my phone is always on 0% brightness and it still randomly happens.
I recently bought a used Nexus One, but it's in great shape. It was preloaded with CM 6.0 RC1, so I decided to update it to stable CM 6.1.1.
I love the phone and CM, but there seems to be an issue whenever waking up the phone from sleep.
If I have the phone on a perfectly even surface (table, etc.), wake up and unlock the phone, it will sometimes wake up with the screen orientation in landscape mode instead of portrait. This even occurs when I lock the screen in portrait mode.
Another issue is when I'm using my phone in bed. When I lay down and hold my phone above my head to browse and stuff, the phone will act very oddly. For example, if I'm in the browser and scrolling up and down with my fingers, it would register as a press on the soft keys. This ONLY occurs when I hold the phone above my head to use the phone (imagine the phone upside down).
Any ideas? There seems to be something loose in the phone. I searched the forums and people guess that the accelerometer is loose, but it's normal.
I have this too. My phone is unusable if its flat, i.e if it's layed down on a table. If i do this the screen barely responds at all to touch.
Anyone else having this issue? It's pretty annoying!
The screen on the S8 is weird. Very often when sliding the finger it will touch random locations. Sliding right might cause a slide to the left. Sliding down might cause a single press in a random location. It happens a lot. And I have tested it with completely not touching the edges of the phone so it is literally just the one finger in a constant motion with no lifting at all during the touches. Anyone else have this? It's literally annoying enough to return the phone
I'm experiencing a screen issue too. Not exactly the same as yours, but an issue nonetheless. When installing an app via package installer, tapping "install" in portrait mode is no responsive. It's only when I rotate to landscape mode that the screen responds. Very frustrating.
