Auto Screen rotation music cuts out - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
When I use the google music player and have the screen on auto rotate. The music cuts out when i rotate the screen for a brief split second. Does any one else have this problem?
How can i resolve this issue?
Is the CPU just too slow?

I just check and I don't have any music cut when I rotate the phone.

I have same problem but not always, I think it happens only when I have less RAM.

i do have this cut for a fraction of sec. not frequently and not an issue for me because i keep autorotate disabled.

yes it only occurs when i rotate the phone 180 degrees. 90 degrees its fine. I guess its not a problem which can be fixed?

Yeah, I get a slight flicker, but like as if the auto brightness is still on but not as strong.
I turn auto brightness off, but I know what you mean.
These are actual lines

Mine looks like the auto brightness gets a bit jittery. Usually when on the net but I've had it in a few other places. It makes it look like the processor is struggling to handle what ever is going on, it isn't, but it gives that impression.
Maybe the transition between brightness levels is set to too big an increment so it appears to jump between levels instead of smoothly fading.
Turn off auto brightness.
I didn't notice it until I sat under a certain light in my house. I guess the luminance in the room sits between two thresholds and causes it to madly flick between them. It looks like a bug which will hopefully get fixed!

Nope, as stated its not auto brightness, I have it turned off.
I've noticed its not on every app. Farm invasion USA it will only have the lines flickering when the character respawns. Browsing the Web that often, watching a movie it doesn't do it at all.

The app I mentioned I think it may be normal upon respawn, I'll test it on my SXS
Still, it flickers on chrome, and it's also done it just while in the dialer

I've only noticed flickering when I had auto brightness turned on. I've been using my phone and N7 exclusively for the last two weeks as I had no access to a computer, so it got enough viewing!
With auto brightness on, in some lighting situations I am able to reproduce the flickering by angling the phone so it borders on the threshold it changes to the next level.
I've turned auto brightness off, and have not noticed any flickering while using Chrome/Tapatalk/Spotify/WhatsApp/Talk/SMS etc etc.
Only thing that bugs me so far is the noisy vibrate, bugged me so much I had to turn off haptic feedback.

Active Notification inconsistent

I don't know if others are having the same problem but I have a stock phone not rooted and active notifications enabled
Every time I place my phone upside down and then a few seconds later turn it over it will show the time..no problem...everytime
On the other hand if I leave my phone aside faced up ..after the screen goes black I would say 8 times out of 10 the clock shows up when I pick up the phone.. I'm assuming the sensors know that the phone has been picked up a d activate the clock display....sometimes the screen remains black even after picking it up and giving it a gentle or hard shake.....bug ?

I too am experiencing this especially when there are no notifications which seems like a waste to me.
Can you guys check your sensors? Maybe something's broken. I'm having sensor issues myself, and have noticed inconsistent notification behavior as well.

That's normal behavior.

Anyway to keep casting phone screen with the screen off?

I want to turn my phone screen off, is there anyway to do this?
Thanks
If u dont need to interact or see what your touchin like ud be using a Bluetooth mouse for instance then i would suggest screenstandby or an a screen filter app that allows u to set screen brightness all the way down to 0
It depends what app you are using in conjunction with your Chromecast. I recently discovered I could cast .mkv files that LocalCast was having trouble playing via a combination of the "cast screen" function and VLC player on my Nexus 6. The app will turn the display off while in use, but won't actually "lock" the screen.

It just reduces the brightness !! Does not turn the screen off or am I doing something wrong ?
Go through the setup again and follow the direction. Not sure if it works for all phones. It works on my N7 and GNex but both are rooted. U haz rootz?

Screen rotation issue

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.

Cannot kill app when the screen is turning clockwise 90 degree

I cannot kill app when the screen is turning clockwise 90 degree.
This issue is happening from 1 II's first date.
I hope that this will be fixed in the future patch, but Sony seems just ignoring this issue.
What can I do to fix this?
This bug happens when the auto rotate is not turned on, and the app is running horizontally and I turn the side with the on/off button facing down. I cannot kill the app in this situation.
