Screen rotate

Hi,

I just got my Xperia 5 and despite the auto rotate screen being selected it doesn't rotate anything. Very frustrating with videos!

Anyone know of any fixes?

Thanks

Hi @Cfh, let me see if I can help out here.

Have you been able to carry out a quick test of the gyroscope in the phone? Find and tap Settings > Support > Xperia Tests > Gyroscope. Also, have you tried to reboot your phone in safe mode to see if the rotation works better there?

Please return with this information and I will do my best to assist you!

There are 2 settings:

- settings -> display -> Auto-rotate screen

- Home screen -> long push -> Home settings -> Allow Homescreen rotation
