[Touch-packages] [Bug 1474225] Re: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk
So what's happening here is that you tell the sensors that the phone would be in landscape position (by shaking it), but you have an app focused which forces the shell to stick with portrait. Then, you start an app that supports landscape and unity will do what you asked it for, rotating to landscape. ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474225 Title: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk Status in qtubuntu-sensors: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk.

I agree if the user is a robot then it's not a bug. The user would be putting the phone down on the table holding it perfectly level during the action. If the user is a human however, they won't often hold the phone level while placing it down. So we need some better heuristic somewhere... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474225 Title: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk Status in qtubuntu-sensors: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1474225] Re: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk
there is thresholding in the sensors... which is exactly the cause of this "bug". When shaking, you make the threshold switch to landscape and by putting it flat down on the desk you keep it that way, not allowing the threshold to be hit to switch back to landscape. You just don't see it, because you're using an app that forces locked to portrait (the dash for example). As soon as you allow unity to rotate (by launching the settings app) it will catch up with what the sensors state is => landscape. Now, one way to get around the situation would be to disable the sensors while unity is locked to some orientation. This however seems quite tricky, as on one hand that would need to be synced with what sensors tell apps, but also apps might still want to know the physical orientation even though locked to some orientation. IMO this is working as expected, even though I agree it can cause some oddities like unintentional shaking. But in the end it's really what you tell the device to do. As an analogy, you're sort of asking for a mechanism to distinguish accidental display taps from intentional ones. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474225 Title: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk Status in qtubuntu-sensors: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1474225] Re: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk
New test case - more worrying the screen rotates itself after having laid on the desk a while: 1. Open the app scope 2. Shake the phone and put in on the desk kind of quickly (a protective case is recommended) such that the left edge of the phone touches the desk before the right. 3. Wait a few seconds making sure the screen is not rotating while the phone lays on the desk. 4. Tap the Settings icon. Expected: Rotation does not change after Settings opens. Observed: Screen rotates to landscape as soon as Settings opens. ** Summary changed: - Unity8 is over-sensitive to brief (accidental) tilting, making the screen rotate when you don't want it to. + Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474225 Title: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk Status in qtubuntu-sensors: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk.
