Help! Screen rotates back and forth constantly

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!

[Q] dual answering window

How come I sometimes see buttons, and sometimes has to use slider to answer? This is bugging me of totally.
I've had this problem from the start with stock rom to cooked rom!
No one has this problem too? I prefer the slider, and would want that to Always display. Cause when the phone is in my pocket it tends to answer or decline calls
I have the same thing. I believe it's because when your phone is locked, it's the slider. When it's not locked, there's the buttons
There must be a solution to this; I hope. I want to use sliders only, since the phone answers itself when in pocket and the buttons are on display.
Well its the way it is because when it's in your pocket, it should be locked, therefore activating the slider feature... I'm sure there is a way to always use the slider...

The problem for me is that it's answering while I take it up, so I rarely have a moment to see if it's slider or buttons. But when it's on the table it's mostly slider. Hate the buttons. But with an app I use (full screen caller id) I get to slide, but the problem is while answering I have to slide through the app and then either slide again or push the button. Which is killing me... have written to the app developer about this a week ago, with no answer or update. So how do I change so I always use default answering mode as slider??

[Q] how can i completely remove airplane mode

Hi,
The Airplane mode is not good for me.
When i do a phone call the phone often enables airplane mode automatically!
How can i completely remove airplane mode?
thanks
Quick answer, you can't without recoding the ROM
Do you normally use the phone with your left hand?
Sometimes I move the phone in such a way that the proximity sensor is no longer covered by my ear and thus the screen comes on and I start pressing it with my face and turn on airplane mode.
Try to hold the phone with your right hand or make sure the proximity sensor is close to your ear/face.

please help!!! My smart cover screen is showing without having the case on.

My smart cover screen is showing without having the case on, which means i cant get into my phone. I open my phone from the power button and shows a black screen with a rectangle shape showing the time and date. In a nutshell its reading that the case is on but it isnt, any suggestions would be very helpful.
Thank You

Strange but nevertheless, you can permanently switch off Smart Cover:
Settings / Smart Assistance / Smart Cover / Off (see attachement)
Btw, one of many small but unnecessary battery eaters (for those, most of us, who don't have Cover case).

Maybe you can trick the phone: make a call to the phone and if it allows you to unlock the screen, open Settings (by putting in-call screen to the background) and permanently disable Smart Cover

Uhhh he/she cant get in her/his phone so she/he cant get to setting
Same problem here, did you fix it?
Hello ! Did you fix this issue ? I have exactly the same problem even if I don't have a "smart cover", my phone is in this mode and so the screen is blocked. And as I am on "plane mode", I can't call it and remove or change something. Thanks for your answer !

Suddenly lock screen shows as landscape mode!

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.
