my inspire is about 7mths old. I've flashed numerous roms and never had a problem with the auto rotate feature. but not long ago I tried to use Google Sky one night and it wouldn't work correctly. so I checked the sensor using Elixr and it's not getting a reading at all. no pitch/roll etc. any ideas?
right now I'm running Icecoldsandwich 7.3 with kernel lordmod 9.5.1 CFS. any suggestions or ideas let me know.

btw thinking maybe it was the Rom or kernel I did a full wipe and flashed back to a Rom i know worked at one point (MikRunny) and it still didn't work. so I went back to ICS 4.0.4.

I have the same problem. Nothing seems to fix it. I've tried rebooting, resetting, re-flashing, and flashing different ROMs. Could it just be a hardware problem?

I reported the same problem here about a month ago. This seems to be a fairly common problem with Inspire. The Inspire forum on the htc site has five pages full of unresolved complaints. I suspect that it is hardware related.
