Anyone knows how to fix orientation sensor? On my tablet autorotate works not right. It rotates screen in vertical, when device lies horizontally and vice versa.
I'm not sure if this helps as I don't know your Android version...
But in the hopes that it's helpful to you (and to others), Android 12 added new rotate features which many find non intuitive, such as the rotate working differently under various circumstances.
How to use Android 12’s clever new auto-rotate system
Note: If you're not on Android 12, then these changes aren't the problem.

For certain apps, I want to be able to use the hardware keyboard but keep the screen in portrait mode. Gyrator helps a bit, but does not do everything I want:
Example 1: Kevtris. Only works in portrait, but needs enough mappable hardware buttons to control the pieces, so keyboard needs to be out, but device is held in portait.
For this, Gyrator helps because it turns the screen back to portrait if the device is in portrait (even if the keyboard is still out)
Example 2: Morphgear. Works best in portrait mode with the game display set to be sideways (East). So keyboard is out, device is held in landscape but I want the screen to stay portrait.
Any thoughts?
I'm not sure if changescreen would work, but you can set what programs turn what way, and could add an exception to those specific programs to display only in portrait mode. It's called changeScreen - v2.5 (Mar 13 '09). HTH

Is it possible to rotate the screen clockwise to "landscape" mode?. It only works in anticlockwise tilt/rotation.
Am i missing a setting or is it anti left handed people design?
I think it was originally built this way because that's the way the G1's physical keyboard was oriented. For phones that don't have a keyboard... how does left-handed vs right-handed even matter?
Regardless, I don't know why it hasn't been updated, but I'm guessing it's just because it's not a huge bother to anybody or a very high-priority thing.
Is there any way to disable camera orientation on the EVO? I'm currently running a Sense ROM (Calkulins 1.7.7) but would like to do this for AOSP as well since sometimes I run CM.
Basically, I always want my camera in portrait mode. However, just the slightest tilt of my phone rotates my camera - annoying. Regardless if screen orientation is on or off, the camera always rotates even at the smallest degree of rotation..
Thanks!
Personally, I don't think you can stop it from rotating. You wana search in themes and apps, MAYBE a mod there, but unlikely, I think. Sorry man.
My phone is running:
Android Version 4.2.2
CyanogenMod version 10.1.2-mako
Nova Launcher version 2.1.1
When i rotate my home screen from portrait to landscape, the 3 standard android buttons and my dock stay in the same location but rotate 90 degrees. I want the same for my apps and other home screen folders and widgets. I'm sure there is something out there that allows me to prevent the entirety of the home screen from rotating in one block and customize which square pieces rotate and how big they are (like 1x1's or 2x2's), I just can't find it. Has anyone come across something like this?
Running a build of KangOS. Screen rotation isn't working properly when flashing any Android 11 zip builds. It rotates opposite of the correct orientation. So if I enable screen rotation and hold the device in portrait the screen rotates to landscape. Likewise holding the device in landscape will rotate to portrait. I had sound issues but was able to find a fix. Android 11 GSI's seem to rotate correctly but I have no cameras when running them. Is there a fix for the rotation issue?

Hey J-Mizzle
Have you made any progress with the screen rotation issue? I'm running LineageOS Lite 18.1 and with the sound fix now that's working for me too but screen rotation is still screwed, was thinking of reaching out to the G6Play devs and asking them if they knew where the rotation files are located or if they have experienced what you and I have been having problems with
