When viewing photos, videos, websites, etc. my phone used to smoothly rotate the screen from portrait to landscape view (and vice versa) as a single "window". So as I'd tilt the phone and whatever I was viewing would remain on the screen and rotate with the phone. All smartphones have this effect so I hope I'm explaining it clearly. Now it doesn't have that rotating effect any more. I can still view things in portrait and landscape, but instead of rotating with the phone as I tilt it, whatever I'm looking at on the screen disappears from one view and reappears in the other. Although the functionality is still there, the look and feel and overall experience is diminished.
I've checked the settings and screen rotation is turned off. I've turned it on and off while rotating the screen and the problem remains. I've powered down my phone and removed the battery a bunch of times and nothing's changed. I even reset the phone in safe mode and that didn't work either. Is there another setting that turns this effect on and off? This problem just appeared out of the blue the other day.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI purchased a used BlackBerry Storm 9530 from a co-worker of mine who has just upgraded to a Motorola Droid & I have to say that it was the BEST thing that I have ever done. I LOVE THIS PHONE. I am due for an upgrade & I can't decide if I want to go ahead & get the Storm 2 or wait to see when the Storm 3 may be released.Anyways, I've been checking out the forums here & have gotten some really good tips/advice. In a lot of the threads, users talk about 'memory leaks'. Can someone tell me what this means???Also, sometimes when I am using my phone, the display does not want to go from portrait back to landscape & vice versa no matter how slowly I turn the phone. Am I doing something wrong or is it just the phone?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?

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.

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.

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 1 Replies View RelatedMy 4s suddenly stopped selecting landscape mode when turned. Is this a software or hardware issue. There is a strange icon that has appeared on the upper status bar which shows a lock surrounded by a circle with an arrow. Is this a lock on the orientation feature? If so, how do I restore the phone to normal operation?

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)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if this would be a Motorola or a Google issue, but lately, I've been noticing that the stock calculatory that comes on my Xoom (WiFi) is really acting up. Once I start doing a few calculations, the answer (whatever it is), is replaced on the screen by usually whatever the last digit is. Happens in both landscape and portrait modes. Anyone else experiencing this? I hated the stock calculator on my OG Droid, so often used other calculator apps from the Market, but with the Xoom, I actually really liked the stock calculator, and can't seem to find any good ones to replace that look good on the Xoom and work well with Honeycomb

However, When I'm going through my contacts and I need to type in the search field, I turn the phone on it's side but it does not give me the qwerty keyboard. Can anyone confirm this? Just trying to make sure AT&T didn't give me a bad phone or something.
