Xperia P - Accelerometer (Auto Rotate) Problem - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hey guys
My Xperia P is 3 days old and there's this weird problem that am unable to resolve.. please help me out..
Well.. Auto Rotate function is not working even after enabling it in the Settings Menu..
I am unable to play tilt/motion sensor games aswell.. so thought somethings wrong with the Accelerometer & performed the accelerometer service test .. and much to my surprise, I couldnt find any numbers/readings in the result even after placing my mobile on a flat surface.. It shows
x
y
z
no values
how can i fix it??

AUTO ROTATION PROBLEM:
TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK OR ASK PROFESSIONAL !!!
I solved it by opening the phone and then tapping the gyro sensor IC a bit. It is the first ic on top of mother board after opening back. After that auto rotate started working and no problem uptill now.

Advanced orientation. This aplication solved problem on my xperia p.

[Q] XPERIA MINI (st15i) Touchscreen not working

Hi i have a big problem with my xperia mini,
i runs great for 3 weeks now sine i bought it,
but suddenly the touchscreen and the back&home button didn't give any respond,
i tried to restart by taking off battery, and i didn't solve the problem
i tried to flash it with stock firmware .368, it also didn't solve it
is this hardware issues or what? any suggestion before i take it to SESC?
As most of the other users who have this problem, it's a hardware issue. Really, after 3 weeks, before you have this problem?
I have the same unit st15i and only a day before reaching 3-weeks. Hoping I won't have this problem.
What color is your unit and model made? (you can check it after you remove the battery) mine is 11w31m
Sony ericsson Xperia mini not working
Hi,
My sony ericsson Xperia mini is having same issue, touch screen is not working and not able to switch off the mobile and applications are not starting when i click on application icon.
Did you get any fix for your issue ? please help me to fix the issue.
Try to repair the software with PC Companion. Click on Support Zone > Start > Repair phone. Just follow the on-screen instructions from here on.
If this won't fix your problem you need to have the phone handed in for repair at a service center unfortunately.
Call the local support team for more info on this (service location etc.).

Check the post in general information about the touchscreen solution using a script. You will need a rooted stock Rom.
old issue,upgrading your st15i to ics will solve it,it's just a bug in it's firmware

Explain your problem in a little bit more depth please.
Can you explain exactly what happens?
Like what exactly do you mean when you say "Even when I don't touch it"
.. Also what is your software version?
Kind Regards
I encountered this problem too. The random wake ups were caused by airpush ads. I used an app to find the cause for this and deleted it. In my case it was gpsfix.
Give it a try
Xperia P Lock Screen Issue
i have Xperia P and i have the same problem; i think its because of the loose bottom (the mic part that is connected to that transparent touch thing) when it started to move after one week of use it started having the issue.

Xperia S vibration disfunctioning

Hi,
My Xperia S suddenly quit vibrating at all, not for (text) msg's, incoming mail/sms etc, and haptic feedback for the 3
bottom keys doesnt work as well as that for the keyboard. Yesterday for some reason it stopped, but after a while it
returned. However, atm there's no vibrating at all again, which is annoying since I dont like to check everytime if I have a
msg or not.
I did not turn it off myself, and checking the settings it's still on. Furthermore nothing happened to the phone in terms of
mechanical damage. I did not recently (last few days) install new apps, but updated to firmware 6.1.A.2.45 5 days ago.
I dont think that has anything to do with the problem though, since the problem occurred only yesterday.
Phone software is just the original stock software.
Anyone recognizing this problem and perhaps has an idea on how to solve it? I'd be very thankful...
Thanks in advance,
Nanoxy

Hm actually I hoped it could be some software bug... I wouldnt be happy to
send it to sony etc... too much trouble
Isnt there some code I can dial to check if vibration works at all? I think I read somewhere about it but cant find it now...
And, if I use "back up and repair" function of pc companion, and repair using a back up of lets say 1 week ago, will I lose any data?
I mean of course I lose things I did this week, but for the rest are there things I should know before trying this?
Same here ever sinceci updated to ics ( any chance you live in belgium too)?

The Netherlands, so close...
But well, total reset + restore with back up does not help... I find it hard to believe that its a hardware problem though...
how's that possible for no reason :s

Yeah mine worked all the time, but stopped working at a moment not close to an update...
besides, vibration is not AT ALL working... I cant even force it to vibrate after installing some
of those sad "vibrator" apps or whatever... I'm afraid the only thing I can do is let it repair, which totally sucks.

Yeah thats what I meant, but... if I choose vibration at "service tests" it wont work...
does that mean its just 'broken'?

Same problem on my Xperia S. Ran the vibrator test without any issues - doesnt seem to be a hardware problem.
There's always something.

I dont think that has anything to do with the problem though, since the problem occurred twice week.
Then security screen lock's not work. I check the setting slide is still on. So, Why that not working?
Please reply me.
