I had auto rotate working on my n7 now it doesn't work... I've done nothing different all of a sudden it stopped working... Any ideas??

Does the Quick Settings panel still show Auto Rotate on? Swipe down from the top right of the screen to check.

Hi dbrides,

This exact thing has just happened with my Nexus 7. Any luck figuring it out? One night it was working (I turned auto-rotate on so I could view a PDF in landscape), then last night it didn't. Still not working this morning.

Appreciate help from anyone with this.

Thanks.

Well if auto rotate is not working at all, maybe your accelerometer is broken. Search the play store for an app for testing/calibrating the accelerometer.

AndroSensor works well. https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ils?id=com.fivasim.androsensor&token=b7m6RpDz

Also, try rebooting, clearing the cache, reverting to the stock launcher, and verifying that you don't have a 3rd party app or widget (e.g. Ultimate Rotation Control) controlling the rotation.
