So I'm having a pretty weird problem with my phone. Auto rotate is not working pretty much system wide. The screen won't rotate in the browser, YouTube messaging app, or for nova launcher
Interestingly enough, the only place rotation seems to work is in the camera app, which changes orientation without a problem. Games like temple run which use the gyroscope also work fine, so I suspect this isn't a hardware issue.
I'm running cm10, have wiped and did a clean install and still have the same problem. I have also tried flashing a touchwiz rom and auto rotate was not working on that rom either.
Anyone have any idea what might be going on?
not sure what the problem is but im having a problem with the auto rotate not working in the gallery app and im looking for a fix everything else is rotating just fine and ive attempted to recalibrate the gyroscope but have had no luck with it correcting my issue so you aint the only 1 out there with a minor migraine.

small issue I noticed with the fire phone.
I am on 320 LCD density. I load up my game(puzzles n dragons.), and notice that I have to tap below the menus/gems to even move them. Most of the time I miscalculate and end up moving something above or below it.
any idea why? I never had this issue on my moto g. but apparently this is the only app that gives me some touch issues.
Hi,
So I offer this phone to my wife this xmas and everything was going smooth until we found this issue:

The bottom screen does this flickering when typing with Swiftkey keyboard on some apps. This one is Doggcatcher but it happens on other apps too.
If I swap to GBoard it does not happen. We're on Android Pie 9.0.
Has anyone found this issue?
Seems like a graphic bug in that specific keyboard.
Please, i need help.
Evaluate for yourself whether it is related to this topic.
Occasionally, graphical glitches appear on my Mi A2 lite, (4/64, Android Pie, December update, locked bootloader, no root, intact system).
In most cases, they flickering all over the screen, and in some other cases they are frozen, as is shown in attachment.
They are completely random and they appear through many applications that i use.
I can not determine the cause.
Does anyone else have a similar problem?
me... on chrome and all app that use webview... during call status bar is flickering... when switch to the camera in whatsapp with swipe to set status... and other
Something similar here, if Facebook Messenger chat head is overlaying YouTube it flickers a lot (only the actual video but the description and recommend are always working without flicker also no problems in fullscreen), less often it happens with Chrome and sometimes YouTube does it without Facebook Messenger even being open (Android Pie Dec. 5) [also it didn't happen for the first few weeks with 8.1 then Pie got released and worked well for some days then this started to happen]
I have that problem , the notification bar flickers a lot and when on video calls, it shows a black flickering rectangle at the bottom of the screen
Hi, I've got the same problem here. For me, the flickering appears when the keyboard is open, and get faster while typing, please does someone know how to fix that?

It is true that it is the keyboard, my keyboard developer is fixing the bug making it do that as we speak but in my case the whole screen flashes black instead of the little box you have
The problem with the flickering screen in some apps like Youtube, Chrome or Instagram can be fixed as follows:
Go to Developer Options and activate "disable hw overlays"
However, the setting must be set again after every Phone restart.

Isn't that bad long term?
"Without a hardware overlay every application that is displaying things on the screen will share video memory and will have to constantly check for collision and clipping to render a proper image, this can cost a lot of processing power. With a hardware overlay each application gets its own portion of video memory, getting rid of the need to check for collision and clipping."

Hello!
My phone has been left aside for several months because of a ghost touch problem, recently I had the screen replaced in order to fix the problem, but now I have a problem with choppy scrolling animations. The screen seems to be running fine at 60hz (refresh rate test and youtube videos), performance in games also seem to be fine. Is there any fix for this?
Thanks!
Did you get the original screen? If you didnt get the original display, that might be the issue.
I installes KODI from Google Play Store and after asking for permissions (and getting them granted) it just shows a black screen.
Only thing i can do is swipe out of it.
Anyone else got this problem?
And how to FIX IT?
This thing is build for KODI, imho ...
just change refresh rate to 60 hz in screen settings and works
Thank you, that helped.
Try uninstalling and reinstalling. Hope it helps.
Unfortunately a known issue. It's a pain in the ass setting the display to 60hz every time you want to use Kodi. I don't get why there isn't a fix yet.
Version 20 supports 120 Hz.
