Screen won't rotate

[MightyMike]

I don't know about other carriers, but my Verizon Note 4 does not get this menu after entering the *#0*0 key sequence. And if you dial it, some recording answers that I didn't stay on the line long enough to listen to.

I have ATT... might make a difference. Well...****!

MAY THE 4 BE WITH YOU!

That doesn't work either. I think Verizon strips a bunch of this kind of stuff out. They're not too keen on relinquishing any kind of control over the phones they sell to the buyer.

I think you're right. I even Googled it and AC popped up with a how to guide. No mention of a difference in carriers.

Really stupid suggestion, but your three year old didn't simply uncheck the screen rotation option in the pull down toggle settings by any chance?!

Do you think that if I took it into the Verizon store that they would try and fix it?

That's a weird one alright. Well, what does it matter once it's working again. That's great.

The rattle in the right corner is the the counter weight for the vibrating motor. Check out Ifixit's teardown. I do notice that my phone gets very hot in the area that the accelerometer and gyroscope are located (right next to the processor which is located by the power button). Initially I thought it was a bug, but now I'm convinced that it's a hardware problem...

Woops! Wrong thread! I thought this was the S6 thread.

Clearing the cache worked for me. I hadn't dropped mine though, it just stopped rotating. Now it does. Thanks for posting.

Hi

I solved mine I hope this helps.

1. Wipe cache
2. Reboot
3. after reboot SWITCH the device OFF
4. Remove battery
5. Put the battery back and SWITCH ON the device

**I'm using NOTE 4**

There is a video on YouTube that fixes this. You just slap your phone on the back. So simple.
