I am new user of android/smart phone. I've HTC One X and few back the screen stopped detecting when I tilted or rotated the phone. when I view the pictures or videos it wouldn't flip to landscape mode, It also not respond to games that involve tilting the screen e.g. teeter/temple run etc.
I tried to calibrate but it results in "calibrate stooped" both in normal and safe mode.
Settings/Display & Gestures,Auto-rotate screen is ticked
please advise, or suggest anything that might help me

Dear Friend,
I also tried all of them. Flushing, restoring everything. But nothing worked. But I noticed something and that worked for me. I am running Android 4.2.2 JB Endeavor on my HTC one X. Just go to Setting--> Display, gestures & buttons. There you will find Auto Rotation. Uncheck it. Then Power off the Phone (Not Restart) just power off the Phone for 10 to 20 minutes. Then just power on the phone. Then you will find your tilt sensor is working. Now you can play Temple run also. But your auto rotation is unchecked. Your camera will also auto rotate as default. If you want to browse internet or play apps that you want to do auto rotate then just check the auto rotate from Setting--> Display, gestures & button menu. That 100% worked for me. May be if you have to restart your phone for software updates or for any issue you may find that again your Auto rotation is gone!!!! That behavior also I discovered. So you just need to uncheck the Auto rotation again and just power off the phone for 10 min or 20 min. Then just power on your phone then you will find that your Auto rotation is working and even if you calibrate G sensor it will show you OK. If it not works try the procedure again with the Fastboot option leaving it unchecked. Uncheck your fastboot and again try the above procedure. It really worked for me. I hope that will work for all of you. It is just an unknown fault of JB for HTC one X. May be updating to 4.2.2 is a total loss. HTC one X came with 4.0.3 ICS. I think It was perfect.
Thanks all of You.

woahhh i turned auto brightness ON and it finally started rotating again, cheers mate. But yeah i cant figure out why it doesn't rotate when you turn the auto brightness off.
Hello. Lately my screen rotation has been all buggy. Sometimes it won't rotate and other times it rotates, but gets stuck on landscape mode with no way to rotate back to portrait except for luck or a reboot. Any ideas?

So I have a very annoying issue and wondering if anyone else does. I have auto rotate on. If I am on a phone call and hang up it screws p the auto rotate feature and everything is sideways. Only way to fix is turn auto rotate off/on again.
Anyone else have this issue? I did update to the November OTA and still is there. About to factory reset unless someone else found a trick to fix it.

i have an auto rotate issue where if i use the phone in landscape mode for too long (1-2 minutes), the screen "snap" back to portrait and back to landscape. watching videos in landscape is annoying. recording in landscape will cause the video to stop recording when the snap occurs.
i use a third party app called "set orientation" to force it to landscape when i need to, and that solved my issue.
try this app and see if it works for you (it's free)
I have this issue on both on my pixel 2 xls
That's strange, I actually had an issue where I couldn't turn auto rotate off. Well, I could turn it off, but locking and unlocking the phone would turn it back on. Every single time. Until I installed the November OTA. Seems all better now.
My auto rotate shuts off by itself, have to switch back on frequently
