I experienced the rotation problem with all 4.2 rom I tried (Alterndromadus and JB I.E.)
If you want the screen in landscape you have to use the physical keyboard.
Screnn will not flip automatically. I don't know why.


I do exactly the same.
It's almost good experience tu use alterndromadus. I keep it waiting for an eventually good rom with kitkat.

Desire Z's faulty sensors

I have something of a different problem. My accelerometer, compass, orientation sensor and gravity sensor started bugging some time ago and giving me the wrong info until they stopped completely and since then they don't send any info at all. Tried to reflash RADIO but that didn't work. Using any other ROM doesn't help, either. So I guess that this problem could be hardware related. If you think otherwise, any help will be appreciated. Can someone identify this sensor chip(s) on the mainboard? It would be worth to check the connectors up.
I have found on this dis-assembly guide some pictures where the IC's are uncovered.

    Which radio version are you using? Have you tried different radios?

    Which recovery are you using? The latest one? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2734590
    Perhaps there are known issues with your version, i would recommend latest 4EXT touch recovery.

    If you upgraded your recovery (if you do not have the latest one) and you still have these issues, please try to get a logcat and dmesg while trying to use these sensors and post it here.

    Besides you could also try HTCDreamOn's CM 10.1

    or AOSP 4.2.2

    Hope it could help you, I am running out of ideas...

    Ok. Connect your phone with your pc, then turn on USB-Debugging in Developersettings and open a terminal on your computer, where you installed adb (in subfolder /sdk/platform-tools. (You will need Android Developer Tools http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/bundle.html)

    Look if your device has been recognized:
    Code:
    adb devices
    then
    Code:
    ./adb shell dmesg >> dmesg.txt
    ./ is needed for Windows, for Linux perhaps also, depends on your configuration.


    For logcat do
    Code:
    ./adb shell logcat -C >> logcat.txt

    If it is too short explained just google how to use adb and you will find tons of informations which should help you.

    ok then try to restart adb daemon with root permissions:
    Code:
    adb root
    if it stills fail, then try it this way:
    Code:
    adb shell
    su
    dmesg >> /sdcard/dmesg.txt

    Maybe you need to allow it on your phone (SuperUser) and maybe you need to replace /sdcard with the real path to your sdcard, don't know which it was in CM 10.1, in CM 11 it is /storage/sdcard0.


    Please upload logcat, but be sure nothing private is in there (your name, e-mail), if so you'd better blank the unwanted words, just for your privacy.
