Need some help from the group. I took my phone out of my pocket this afternoon and my AOD was all the sudden displaying in Landscape only. It is the big digital clock and has never done it before. I reboot phone, turned AOD off and back on and nothing worked. I locked the phone in both portrait and landscape orientations, tried rotating the phone while locked and nothing changes it back.
I could not find anything in the menus for this and I could not see anything that changed.
Any help to get it back to normal is appreciated.

Title,
Is this a thing w/ OLED screen?
It loses colors just before the screen goes off for a brief second. Something that doesn't really bother me, but enough to annoy me.
I was able to turn this off in developers option by turning the animation to none or zero whatever that option was.

You are absolutely right, that does the trick.
I was thinking that would solve the problem, but didn't actually think it was it.
Thanks ?
Screen turns grey just before it actually turns off
Im having the same grey screen issue on my new Note 8. Can you explain where and how I can change this? Thanks a lot.
That is really odd, I have animations to 0.5 and the screen just goes off, no color changing to gray scale, 950F 128 GB
All three of thr notes ive come across go monochrome , normal.

Mine dosnt its full color the whole time and even if i change anim.
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.
Just noticed, the blue light filter takes a few seconds or more to engage after screen is brought back from standby mode. Pretty irritating.
Example viewing a page within Samsung browser, screen times out ( has to time out )then I press the home button to turn screen back on, blue light filter is off now for a good few seconds or unless I go into the settings screen.

I thought it was just me. I looked around to see if anyone else was having it in other threads but I'm glad I'm not the only one having this issue. Mine is really delayed that I need to turn it off and turn it back on. Sometimes I wait over a minute til it activates so I just end up having to toggle it off and on since it's faster... Unfortunately

I have this issue. Also, even with blue light filter turned completely off, it still engages at dark. Anyone else?

What you have could be Google books issue that you have , it's been discussed on here in the past. It's complete different to what my issue is

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.
Hey there guys,
There is a bug with android 11 on my Xperia 1 II. I have tried to reset my phone and wipe everything. That fixed the problem for a moment, and then it came back. AOD doesn't work, and when that occurs the flashlight doesnt stay on when I lock the screen, and beside that, when all this happens the volume adjusting makes the phone vibrate which is weird.
Am I the only one with this?
AOD freezes for me and I have to open and close my window case for the time to update

I changed the AOD to smart mode, and it seems to be working okay now.

But now it only shows the screen when you pick up the phone. I want it to be on all the time. I am used to just look at the phone when it is charging or near the bed so I can see the time without doing anything. Now I have to open and close the smart view case in order to show the lockscreen and update the time.
