Guest Dyonas Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 OK I've had this happen to me for at least three days now and it's finally to the point where I'm posting to see if anyone else has experienced it. I use the Vega in landscape virtually all the time and because of that I lock it in that orientation. However, once or twice an hour the screen will briefly flip to portrait (power button would be on the left in that orientation) then back to landscape. It's very brief and as I said it flips back just as quickly but it's very annoying. It has happened while watching videos too which is more annoying as it takes longer than a browser to change orientation while playing. I've tried recalibrating it, rebooting the tablet and everything short of reflashing the ROM. I'm really hoping to avoid reflashing to test it as I've finally got the screen calibrated to an almost perfect level thanks to the other calibration app on the MoDaCo forums. Has anyone else had this behaviour before? If so, have you found a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dyonas Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) Are you using mirren browser? Nope. Opera, Firefox, Dolphin HD, it happens with all of them. Edited March 22, 2011 by Dyonas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trevor432990 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Sounds a bit like an issue with the accelorometer and therefore you might like to try applying the fix that Newbe5 came up with a while back. It is located here :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is located here :D Oh I wish it was that simple.. I tried a reboot in case it was a weird "I've been on too long, restart me!" issue and...... it hung on the black screen before the splash screen. Reflashed stock, put ClockworkMod on and restored my backup. A little jittery so I restarted it only to get in the same situation so now I've got other things to look at as well.
