Screen orientation locked when in 'dock' mode

[xanderharris86]

So I've searched through the forums a bit and can't seem to find an answer to my question... hopefully some of you have the answer though. When I'm driving I plug both my car charger and auxiliary audio jack into my phone so that it will charge while playing pandora. Problem is when I do this, the phone seems to think I've plugged it into a dock, and locks the phone into landscape mode.

I 'believe' I'm running DoomKernel for CDMA V1 and the 2.3.3 system... but it's been about a month since I've touched anything on it so I could be mistaken/forgot what I did to it last.

Anyone have a suggestion on how to unlock this orientation? It even stays this way after I unplug it sometimes.

I just reboot when it did that to me. It's a glitch I think.
Never happened after I stopped using my off brand charger tho
I started using the USB / Charger thing from the factory and it quit happening

hmmm.... this answered a question i posted earlier. I was having the same problem today when i rebooted my phone while plugged into my PC via USB. It never did it before until today, right after i tried a mod, that failed, and i lost my notification bar. it freaked me the hell out, i thought i broke it! I even did nandroid restore, wiped cache, everything! just to unplug it from pc reboot it, and it was fine! I was like wth!?!?! I never did figure out why all of a sudden it does it, but it does everytime i reboot while USB is pluggen in. If anyone knows an answer please share.

The easiest way to fix this is to:
1) Unplug power
2) Wait a few seconds
3) Unplug headphones jack
4) Wait a few seconds
5) plug in headphones jack
(if it still sticks, 6) Unplug headphones jack))

That should turn off dock mode.

When you plug every in, plug in the audio first, wait for it to register (i.e. shows either the headphones notification, or music starts playing through whatever you have your phone hooked up to) then plug in the power cable
