[SOLVED] N900 still rotating
 

Hello there.

Yesterday Ive faced strange problem. Im using my n900 with Cssu Stable. Just after updating I enabled screen rotation, but, its good way to get yourself ONE BIG LAG. Doesnt work for me, so I send a false command:

.

It disabled rotation, but (again but, huh? :D), when screen is locked n900 somehow turns back to portrait and locks itself in that mode. How do I know? The volume keys works like in portrait, and the Lock screen is in portrait, i really dont know what to do. I dont mind using counterwise volume keys, but when Im unlocking the device it needs to back to landscape mode, most of the time doing so through ONE BIG LAG.

LAG, LAG, LAG, LAG, LAG, LAAAAAAG.

Please read this thread.

Conclusion would be to use status-area-orientationlock-applet and for the phone application set it separately in the configuration.

You should check also: gconftool-2 -s /system/systemui/tklock/auto_rotation -t bool false

I never used orientationlock-applet, so I suppose that problem is somewhere different.

Now, this is strange, sometimes (when phone is locked) orientation is ok, I mean landscape, but sometimes is in portrait, even when keyboard is slided out! Accelerometer malfunction? Im running out of ideas.

First you should install orientation applet. It sets not only ui_can_rotate but also orientation_lock.

Looks like it's working, I will check it out for few hours and report it tomorrow.

For now, thank you all for support!

yep, all is right :)
