Z5 Compact: Auto-Rotate Issue

[Vilidi]

Screen auto-rotation function have problem on my phone. After several restarts and on/off the function it starts working finally but not for long. After changing the application or turning off the screen again stops working. I did Factory reset, repairing...no use.

Any suggestion?

Ye mine is also doing this now. This is a brand new warranty replacement Sony Xperia Z5 compact, which I received after the screen suffered the spontaneous self-cracking that others had reported. Now my auto roatate doesn't work, unless I restart the phone where it will work for a few hours. If I do diagnostics, the gyroscope nor the accelerometer work. Weirdly the fingerprint scanner works in normal use but when I go into diagnostics after the auto rotate stops, the scanner doesn't work in the diagnostic environment?! Any solutions?

Not an impressive experience with Sony phones so far!

My Sony Xperia Z5C no longer rotates the content of the screen when I rotate the phone.

Browser pages remain in portrait whatever angle I turn the phone to, Youtube videos remain in landscape whatever I do, as two major examples.

I've checked in the settings and the function to rotate the screen is turned on. I tried turning it off, then on again, but still the same problem remains. Tried restarting my phone, problem remains. I am not ready to try full resetting my phone as I do not wish to lose my set up.

My phones model number is E5823 and it is running Android 6.0
