My Blackberry 9800 Torch will no longer switch from portrait to landscape view in any application when I turn the unit on its side. It is stuck in portrait view. Very frustrating! This happened once before but corrected itself. Is there a setting that can changed? My carrier, Bell Mobility, was of no assistance. Just told me to return the unit for repair which would take 6 - 8 weeks.
View 9 RepliesI have had a recurring issue with my screen not wanting to change orientation when I rotate the phone. This is especially frustrating since the portrait keyboard is difficulty for me to use. I have tried resets, battery pulls and most recently a security wipe. While the phone will work properly at first, the problem eventually recurs. I am assuming that I may have a faulty accelerometer. Is there a test that can confirm if this is the case?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing windows 7 I cannot connect my XPERIA Neo to my laptop The windows gives a notification that the Bluetooth Peripheral Device Driver is not available, same happens for my friends XPERIA Play too.I want to use a thrid party application to send SMS through my laptop and manage Contacts, etc. Thus the bluetooth peripheral device driver is imperative to connect the device.my recent experience with Nokia Suite was amazing,
1 - The drivers are fully available for all the phones and allow seemless integration with bluetooth on PCs.
2 - It is ultra convenient to manage all media, contacts and messages through your PC / Laptop using the suite.
Sony, is requested to kindly provide a better Suite with capability of Messaging and Managing Contacts also giving bluetooth peripheral device drivers for connecting the phone through bluetooth.This is my 5th phone under the Sony Brand and I do not want to be disappointed. I am an avid fan and recommend Sony to all my friends.These features are very basic and are expected to be available for such high end smart phones.
Is it possible to stop the touchscreen from rotating from portrait to landscape?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was using the full on screen keyboard and actually getting use to it, lot's of mistakes made but I was still going with the flow. I read a post yesterday that suggested switching to the Reduced Keyboard.
It made all the difference, I type a million times faster!!!! No need for the slider keyboard.I recommend to everyone out there, at least give it a shot and see the difference if you aren't already doing it.
I got a Blackberry Torch 9800. I have an issue with the slider (or I think this is the origin of my problem), my screen don't want to rotate in portrait mode and I can't have the virtual keyboard, even when the slider is closed. I have tried everything, from hard reboot to uninstall all my apps, wipe out my os and re install it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to keep the display in landscape view when you slide the keynboard open? I have a car cradle that I used with my 9700. I now use the cradle with my Torch. The Torch is thicker than the 9700, so I have to slide the Torch open and slide just the keybord section in it fits nice aNd tight. I want to be able to swivel the cradle to allopw landscape view, but since the keyboard is open the screen won't change from portraight to landscape view.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have already installed the new Desktop Manager 6.0 that I downloaded from the RIM site.
I am thinking the safest way to not have a problem is the just restore my 9800 data from a back up rather than do the Switch Device thing. Anyone worried it might bring erroneous crap into the new 6.0 OS.
Maybe it would be better to redo my settings after the data install to make sure all is clean and working correctly. Some of the 5.0 setting would not be applicable to the new 6.0 software.
When filming in portrait, then turning the phone to film in landscape in the same clip, the finished video doesn't flip. It will film in landscape, but, will be viewed sideways. I've never done that before this weekend, so, I don't know if this is normal. Is this common to all devices?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem very similar to this [URL] but i am not using flash. White stripe only shows when light is coming direct to camera from a light source like fluorecent lamp and from a particular angle.Stripe shows in both portrait and landscape mode and always at same place. I am attaching 2 photos 1 taken in landscape and other in portrait.I have a protecting cover but it is not covering the camera lens.
I think other z3 devices do not have this issue as i have searched a lot but i only found 1 other person facing this issue and i have shared the link above. Why this stripe shows on photos? Is it a known issue? Should i claim warranty?
Before i switched to the s6 I was using an iphone 5s. I usually watch videos on chrome while laying on the bed so on my iphone i rotate the video to landscape and watch while the phone is portrait. Using the s6 was a bit different i had to use the phone 180 degrees so that the auto rotation wont disturb the video while watching it landcape on portrait.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI haven't seen this one discussed in a long time - speed of change versus the iFruit. I remember way back at the start of the year we basically concluded that the slow change from Landscape to Portrait and back was due to Honeycomb - some delay setting in SW. I was just at Best Buy and was able to compare the Xoom and Asus Transformer side by side. It's pretty evident that the Transformer switches a bit faster than the Xoom. So I am wondering if it is actually a hardware difference.Why is the change speed important? Well my theory (watching people compare all the tablets to the iPad) is that the iPad comes across as a much more polished device. The delay on the Android tablets make them look inferior.(BTW - was at BB to check out the Kindle Fire. Have it on pre-order to give as a birthday gift. I was considering to cancel the order, but based on playing with it, I think it will sufice)
