Make sure auto-rotate is checked (have to say it...)

On your dialer, enter *#0*# which will put you in General Test Mode, then select sensors, then run the gyro sensor auto test to make sure your gyrometer is working.

"samsung hub adapter i closing"... I am not sure what you mean by this. If you are just ending it running, that should not cause an issue.

thanks, i have run the gyroscope test and it passed, i did make sure auto rotation is checked, ive run odin and put the phone back to stock so instead of uninstalling apps I think i am just going to freeze them and see what happens.

[MENTION=4907899]phyowaiummg[/MENTION] omgwtfurawesome! I usually have rotation off, but on for specific apps so needless to say I don't rotate my screen much. Then "all of a sudden" it stopped working and me being me, I feared the worst... thought maybe the recent drops of the phone broke something, but rotation still worked in the Camera app and sensors looked fine. Thanks to [MENTION=3755322]Tordp[/MENTION] for posting in another thread as that lead me here and thanks [MENTION=4907899]phyowaiummg[/MENTION] for this finding!

I's not Samsung Hub on my i9515

I removed Watchon, Google Drive - Video - Music etc. and it stopped rotating.

For i9515 the fix won't work, installing stock ROM again, will try few things.

/edit

Ok, I'm not getting behind it. I did what I did before, except I interupted bloatware from updating itself and skipped Titanium Backup of User+System data !

Also I did not disable KNOX in SuperSu when it asked, or better said I forget to do so^^

Removed SAME bloatware as before but rotation still works.

/edit 2

Disabled KNOX, rotate still works.

Titanium Backup done, rotate still works.

Removing more trash.

/edit 3

Found the sucker! It's named DioDict Service. Removed Apps one by one, with reboot after each.

This is where rotation stopped. Restoring it didn't help.

Restored backed up libgnustl_shared and it works again.

See attachment for i9515 fix, copy to system/lib an set permissions rw-r--r-- ! Galaxy S4 VE.

You can do it with ES File Explorer but grant it root permissions in options first.

You only need the file, not the service.

Riddle solved, good night :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mybikegoes200:
No idea if this will help anybody - but I had the screen-rotation issue but, like most issues, can't say for sure if my symptoms were the same as everybody else's... I was ready to tear apart my phone to clean the proximity sensor that I presumed to be the issue (which, by the way, was probably a bad assumption). Out of blind luck, I think - I updated a few samsung apps and cleared some defaults. Oddly, I think it's the latter that "fixed" the problem. My screen rotates as expected now. I can't imagine why a default app would have been causing this issue - but for now, she's cured.

Samsung Galaxy S4 no Auto Rotate, not lib file

Hi all, I'm new on here and need some desperate help. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 running android 4.4.2 and the auto rotate stopped running. My problem appears to be slightly different then the rest of you.

My phone never was rooted. I did disable most all of the bloatware, but never had any issues for 6 months. I did all the normal steps, turn off turn on auto rotate, reboot phone multiple times, and ultimately did a factory reset. I also tried updating all Samsung apps including Samsung Hub, still nothing fixed it.

After reading these posts about the cause of the problem being from Samsung hub missing a lib file, I thought possibly the file got corrupted from disabling it. I decided to follow the directions on the post and I rooted my phone with towel root. I installed root browser and found out that I still had the file libgnustl_shared.so ... so I figured that maybe it's corrupt. I deleted it and re downloaded it. Made sure I placed it in the system 》lib folder and changed the permissions to rw-r-r 0644. Saved and rebooted. Still not working.. downloaded the file again from different source and tried again, still no auto rotate.

I have now used Kies 3 to do a firmware upgrade and initialisation on my phone back to factory reset again. Still no auto rotate. I have tried calibrating my gyroscope doing figure eights, using different apps, and I have checked that the gyroscope is working through phone dialer *#0*# . I have tried some rotation control apps and although they can work only on manual override they do not work on auto.

I have no idea what to do and am hoping someone has a solution that will fix my problem. If anyone can help, much appreciated.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
I don't THINK you can calibrate it on the Galaxy S4 (I have one too). If it isn't functional, I think it would have to be a warranty issue (assuming it is still in warranty and you can take it in in stockish condition).

Work for me Too! Tips for Noob!

--NOOB--PAY ATENTION!

I install

Titanium Backup

in my rooted Samsung Galaxy GT-I9505 Stock Rom and for browser app i use

ES FILE EXPLORER

.

With Titanium, i desinstall Samsung Hub and a lot of sh**** in my device. When i finish this, my screen

didn't rotate automatically and the

other sensors like Air Gesture.

Then i read this thread and try to copy the file to system folder.

Atention NOW!

1. When i tried this, the ES FILE EXPLORER fails trying to copy the file. You need to go OPTIONS and turn on the button ROOT EXPLORER. Try to copy again and you see that's ok!

2. To change the fix permitions (if you don't know how) you need to do this:

2.1 After copy, you have to select the file and go to properties

2.3 To change the permitions like rw-r--r-- you need to click on Permission button, unmark all the boxes and mark only this: "READ: Owner, Group, Other" / "WRITE: Owner". After this, press ok;

3. Reboot phone

After this, auto-rotate and Air gesture turns ok, 100%

Not working

I have followed your steps to the letter, yet the autorotation still is not working. When I reboot my phone (S4 i9500 rooted) and check in the lib folder the libgnustl file is not there anymore. What am I doing wrong/how can I solve it?

My steps:

Downloaded the file in the link on my computer.

Unzipped it

Sent the unzipped file to my phone via bluetooth

Used Root Explorer to copy and paste the file from bluetooth folder to the system//lib folder

Edited the permissions rw-r--r-- (on top it says "Mounted as r/w)

Exited the app, rebooted phone

This method did not work for me. However, I did do something that made my auto rotation work.

I installed a custom ROM (crDroid based on Cyanogenmod) for my i9500 and now it's working perfectly.

Yes, this was my very problem! Stupid Titanium Backup! And it doesn't even restore it when you use their stupid backup that they make.

Also, if you still don't want Samsung Hub back, you don't need to restore it/reinstall it for this fix to work.

Also, the required file is INSIDE the .zip file that you download from this thread... I had to put it on my computer and take it out (cut it or copy it) of the .zip file, THEN moved it onto the phone and did the steps provided. Thanks!!!

Also, the permissions are

READ: All Checked.

WRITE: Owner/User Only.

EXECUTE: NONE!

Restart, and you're done. Good luck.
