[HELP] Moto g7 play XT1752-2 Screen rotation flipped. - Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers

Hi guys. I'm posting for the first time and i really hope i find the fix to my problem on this thread.
My moto g7 play came rooted from the retailer and i didn't run into any problems back then. I had to use a digital banking app and it required me to unroot my phone. So i flashed a couple of stock roms varying on their builds i guess?
The rom flashes without any problem but the problem i run into again and again is the screen rotation is flipped (and i haven't physically damaged my phone that might have broken the related sensor.)
I tried to look for solutions for this problem but so far i haven't had any luck.
Thank you for your help. Appreciate it. :good:

Check settings > system > developer options > Force RTL layout direction If it's on, turn it off. If it's already off, try toggling it on/off. AFAIK, Asian phones have the software setup in the opposite direction.
If that doesn't work, then you need to find your correct firmware.

Appreciate the help man.
But after a little more research i came up with the appropriate terms to explain my problem.
It's a problem with the accelerometer. I think my accelerometer is inverted because when ever i rotate my screen into landscape or even portrait the accelerometer shows inverted readings in the calibration app.
Every forum I've stumbled upon told me to do the same as you did but I've flashed a ton of different xt 1952-2 images from
mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/channel/official
And my phone also has "engineering" bootloader and i can't seem to root it with magisk or any other method without any failure messages.
So I can't possibly go into the root files and maybe try to invert the accelerometer values or something like that.
I would really appreciate if you'd help me find the proper image file tho.
This is what my bootloader says
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Not Secure)
BL:MBM-2.1-channel_retail-6bae60c-190618
Baseband: M632_17.61.01.99p CHANNEL_LATAMDSDS_CUST
Product/Variant: channel XT1952-2 32GB DVT1A

@hassanmuj
Have you tried firmware from RETLA? That's what it looks like your phone is.

I've tried RETAIL, RETBR and RETAR so far.
I'll try RETLA and update you with the results.
Thank you so much for your help.
I'm grateful.

I flashed the RETLA firmware but unfortunately the problem is still there....
Do you have any other suggestions @Spaceminer ?

[Q] Wake up problems during the call

I need an opinion on this one. I've looked for this problem but it seems not to be clear what is causing it. I have Wildfire S (EU) Marvel. The device is S-On but I unlocked the boot loader and installed CWM. I've already tried several ROMs but it doesn't help to solve the issue. The problem appears during making the call - the screen goes black when you put the phone next to head and after that doesn't want to wake up. The only thing that wakes it up is putting it next to strong light source so I think the light sensor is the one to blame. However automatic backlight seems to be working fine. I really hope that it is not hardware problem. Please give any suggestion to try solving this problem. I would even go for the option to shut down somehow the light sensor because restarting phone after each call is kind of annoying. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Sorry for such a long introduction.

long introduction is far better than a short one ...
did you install rom propperly (factory reset/cache clean/dalvik clean)?
did you try using any other dialer app just to check ?
Like this, or this
I think i have read about such problem somewhere, if i find it i will post you the link to it...
also here are some apps to check your proximity sensor :
ProxyLightTester i couldn't find it on market. (not tested)
Proximity Sensor Finder Market link. (tested) and it will report 'all or nothing'

Hi, Thanks a lot for suggestions. So it seems to me that proximity and light sensors work. I tried several software including the one you suggested and the proximity and light sensor respond ok. I also tried different dialer but it doesn't help. I have no idea what can it be. I am thinking to put the device back to the factory state and maybe install official ROM but I am not sure if this will solve the problem. Thank you again for helping. And your device never had this problem?
Never had that problem.. Try reflashing w/o any app2sd gapps and stuff, just clean new rom and try it..

Before you do that try this build.prop file and see if it helps...Just remove the ".txt" and set your permissions same as the old build.prop file you renamed.

[Q] T999 UVDMD5 - Can't connect to camera (rooted or unrooted)

Hi All,
I'm am absolutely stumped and have tried what feels like everything I can to resolve my issue to no avail. So, I'm hoping to find success from the wisdom of the seasoned XDA community.
I have an SGH-T999 with baseband UVDMD5. In early September, my camera stopped working. When I open the camera app, I'm greeted with the infamous "Can't connect to camera" message. The front camera works fine (via Skype), but the rear camera does not. I've tried all of the following but the camera still won't work:
1) Unrooted and re-flashed the stock root66;
2) Finding the correct "SLIM_ISP.bin" file, placing them in the /data folder, and set the permissions to 777;
3) Re-flashed the stock UVDMD5 bootloader, firmware, and modem;
4) Took the phone to a shop to have a new camera installed and they couldn't get the new hardware to work either (so, it's definitely software related);
5) Cleared the app cache and fixing permissions in recovery;
6) Restored a Nandroid from a previous state of the device when the camera was fully operational;​
I don't know what else to do. PLEASE help me folks. I really want my camera back. Thank you in advance for your time and insight.
I've attached a Catlog I recorded while attempting to open the camera, if that helps at all.
just a thought , but if you have a nandroid backup could you uninstall current camera and then grab camera from nandroid and install it ?
or if have titanium backup hit the install button on camera apk (even though its already there). these methods have worked for me with browser issues.
just an idea.
good luck.
err on the side of kindness
Have you considered replacing the camera hw? It's very easy to do and the part usually costs less than $10.

Hi Doc, I tried that. Sorry. Should have listed it. I took it to a shop to have a new camera installed and they couldn't get the new hardware to work either. So, it's definitely software related.
Thanks for the suggestion though. Please let me know if you have any other ideas.

mrrocketdog,
Would that work if the camera doesn't work even when the Nandroid is restored (despite that fact that the camera was functional when the Nandroid was created)? Thank you.
At this point I think that would be worth a shot. If it doesn't work though I'd have to say it sounds like it could be hardware related, even though you replaced the module. Might be a problem on the motherboard or something like that.
The only other thing I can think to try though is to flash a 4.1.1 rom. Then using the hidden code to write the camera firmware to the device. If the firmware got corrupted somehow, this could fix it. The problem though, is if you've updated to 4.3 firmware, it probably won't work. They patched against our ability to write the cameras firmware ourselves. If this was done in the controlling app, it may just work. However, if it was patched in the base firmware, there won't be any way I know of to do this.
I'll post the code in a min. Gotta hunt it down again...

Ok here are the codes:
*#34971539#
*#7412365#
Enter in the stock dialer.
I'm pretty sure the first one is the one you need, but both are camera codes which is why I gave both.
If it works, it will open a menu called Camera Firmware Std
You can check the firmware versions first if you like. If the phone fw is older than the cam fw, and you do this, it is possible you could loose some features. But if so, I imagine flashing the device firmware again will update back to where it should be.
To write the camera firmware, just choose Phone to Cam FW Write.
Good luck!

i think that would be the point. the camera was functioal when the nand was created.
dont know exact function , but what about going into recovery and fixing permissions.
and going into settings>apps>camera and clearing cache ? wouldnt take but a minute and it already doesnt work so....

Thank you for your response and the suggestions.
That point makes complete sense. However, what I'm saying is that I've restored s Nandroid from a state when the camera was functional. However, the camera still doesn't work despite restoring a Nandroid from a previously operational state. So, please correct me if I'm wrong, but, considering that, what good would extracting the apk from the Nandroid do if restoring the entire Nandroid doesn't make the camera work?
Regarding your second suggestion, I have tried clearing the app cache and fixing permissions, but it didn't work. I'll add this to my list of attempted fixes in my original post.
Thank you very much mrrocketdog. I sincerely appreciate your continued interest and support. I hope we can figure this out.
well dang it ! hopefully someone else will chime in with some ideas. sorry i didnt have anything new. will keep thinking.

Hi DocHoliday77,
Thank you very much for the reply and the suggestion. Your advice seems sound.
I'm not sure what you mean by "controlling app." I'm afraid my knowledge is too limited to tell you if I've flashed the 4.3 firmware.
Not sure if this helps, but I have intentionally not upgraded beyond the stock baseband UVDMD5 version. I understand the baseband versions following UVDMD5 are bad due to the addition of KNOX and the inability to flash back to previous baseband versions.
Currently, I have flashed Carbon rom, which states the Android version is 4.4.4. However, I don't know if the Android version number is reflective of the firmware.
Regarding flashing a 4.1.1 rom, is there a rom you suggest that would be better for this than others? Should I just grab an older version of Carbon or would it be best to use Odin to flash back to a stock root66 version of 4.1.1 ?
Btw, not sure if you saw, but I uploaded a Catlog I recorded while trying to launch the camera app. I don't know if that will reveal anything or not. I can't make two cents of Catlogs other than to identify that errors are occurring. I really hope this isn't a faulty motherboard.
Thank you again for your continued interest and support. I really appreciate your advice. It means a lot. I hope we are able to resolve this.
If you never updated beyond 4.1.2, you can fully downgrade to 4.1.1 and try that method I posted. The app is just the one that controls the cameras dialer code. You don't really need to worry about it. Don't remember which it is right now anyway...
If you like though, first just flash stock 4.1.2. The code might work there. I just can't remember if it was patched there or in 4.3. You'll know you need 4.1 1 if you open it and the firmware write choice is greyed out.
I suggest just flashing the root66 firmware rather than a rom. This way everything you need is included. If it does solve the problem you can flash back to whatever you like.

Ok Doc. I flashed root66 T999 UVDLJC (Official JB Firmware - Latest JB 4.1.1 Firmware). After rebooting the phone, I entered the first code you provided - *#34971539# - into the phone dialer. This pulls up an all black screen with a gray colored placeholder/header at the top that reads, "CameraFirmware Standard." Again, other than the gray header and title, the rest of the screen is all black with no text or anything, except for the notification bar at the very top. Then, after sitting on that screen for a few seconds, it closes and the message, "Unfortunately, Factory Test has stopped," displays in a pop-up message.
I can make my assumptions about what that means, but I'd prefer your opinion. What do you think?
Thank you again for your time, insight, and assistance. I respectfully look forward to your response.
p.s. Just to clarify my experience for potential future readers, the second code you provided - *#7412365# - didn't work. It displayed, "Unable to process request" in a pop-up message.
That tells me that the system is most likely having problems communicating with the camera.
I'd open it up and make sure it's properly connected. It's very easy to do. You can find disassembly videos on YouTube if you want to see what to look for first.
If the shop couldn't get a new one to work, I'm honestly not sure what else you can try. It does sound like a hardware issue though. My best guess is its got something to do with the motherboard.

Download "quick shortcut maker and search Network in the app. The second option under phone is Network settings. Choose that and select create shortcut. It will create a shortcut to network settings on your home page. I posted a picture of the app somewhere in the artmod thread as well as the GEE3 port thread.

Does the OTA not work? Go to the OTA app on your phone and find the update, it will let you download it and then you can flash it from recovery.

Downloaded the latest update and no service msg now and also won't read SIM. Had to flash previous version 5.2.1 which has no SIM problems but quite a few bugs. Is there a fix in the works? The first 5.3.1 version worked flawlessly.

What do you mean the first 5.3.1 version? Also, Take the build.prop from the 5.2.1 and replace it in the 5.3.1 The reason you get that is because there are mods in the build.prop to be able to use on the ls970, but when you flashed the "official" update it wrote over the build.prop mods we did.

Can you send me a link with the 5.2.1 build props and a new 5.3.1 zip. I don't know how to flash seperately. Thanks for being so helpful. I haven't flashed a Rom since froyo gingerbread days on my old LG optimus v lol. And thanks Art for the best Rom running right now. Also the links are down. They are taking me to sound cloud. And the ota isn't moving either.

I don't have the rom but I might be able to make you a flashable zip for the build.prop. Not today though. Maybe tomorrow. But all you really have to do is make a backup (just copy it somewhere else or pull it from /system inside the zip of 5.2.1 or the one from this thread) and then replace the one in the new update with the backup, and set the permissions the same as they were, reboot, and bam.
Here, I attached a 5.3 update (don't have 5.3.1) with the same build.prop with an updated custom OTA. It says 5.3 and is 5.3.
Flash this over the artmod rom.

Did you attempt to relock the boot loader? Check out the softbrick thread, that should get you up and running. You'll need to flash a bin file using lgnpst and that's easy to install. Everything is in the soft brick thread.
Thanks the other way was far to complicated!! Plus I couldn't understand dudes accent!!? I'll have access to laptop in morning. I have the 5.3 to reflash but I'll have to flash 5.2 first because I bricked the phone before you sent me the link. Thanks so much my buddy!!

I see what you mean now, command should be "adb reboot recovery" But I think you need download mode, which is a combination of buttons, not a command. Try pressing volume up and down, holding power, then releasing when the phone flashes. Or hold volume up and power, then when the menu comes up I think you can select "download mode"
I understand the button push part. I was reffering to the part where it' says the phone should reboot at 67% or 83%. That's why I wanted to know what to type in. So do I type in "adb reboot recovery" then run and if that fails do the button press? I just wanted to get get the teeny bin moving. So far I have had it plugged in to download mode not knowing how to proceed from there.

lenovo zuk z2 plus goes into bootloop after opening the camera

hey everyone
so i flashed lineage os 7.1 on my zuk z2 and everything was working perfect
after that i tried aicp 13.1 nightly and it was also working flawlessly but problem arrived as i used the gcam port for hdr+ in snapdragon 820 devices, initially the camera worked fine and everything was working normal but suddenly after some time whenever i opened gcam my phone hanged and then went into fastboot mode itself(the notification light is on ) and after i rebooted the phone it went into bootloop.
then after doing too many reboots finally my phone started and i changed the rom as i thought it might be a rom problem but in every rom whenever i tried to use gcam or even whatsapp default camera my phone suffered the same problem every time so i reflashed the stock zui firmware but the problem still persists as whenever i uses my stock cam or any other camera my phone goes into bootloop
when i searched the web i wasn't able to find a single thread related to my problem
really worried
please help
any help would be appreciated
*sorry i'm a noob to all this flashing etc*
also the bootloop occurs only after using the camera otherwise everything works fine
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE HELP URGENTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very strange issue. Dont know why that happens to you.
Which camera are you using? Try BSG port, v1a. Im using it and it works great. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ubVpPrrZRkvVPH9qT7XzlttwcCVPxUcM/view?usp=sharing
Also try this, which i did also. Flash with qfil ZUI Oreo 243 version, you have thread for this, Jintu jose is OP.
It didnt lock my bootloader, and it didnt encrypt my phone memory.
Flash TWRP
Flash latest AEX Oreo
Flash GZR gapps
Magisk (you have to do it two times, once when u install rom, let it boot, than again flash in recovery)
Install google camera i posted and try.
This setup is working great for me.
I've tried every possible version of gcam but it happens always
Now the main problem is that I can't even use my stock camera app as whenever camera opens it goes into bootloop
I've flashed the stock ROM using qpst tool
But the problem persisted
Can anyone please tell me what should I do?
Is this a problem with my kernel?????
What should I do?
I am currently using aex latest version ?
Thanks for the reply but please help

Than I would say it is hardware problem man
If you have warranty, flash stock rom, I think 1.9 lock bootloader, and reclaim warranty
I say this because I never had this problem, ever, on any custom rom nor stock
Can I reclaim the warranty after locking the bootloader

Will let everyone know about the problem if I found one
the same thing that happen with mi zuk z2 but changing the rom to a another witch no uses the lineage os kernel solve the problem
I have the same problem the camera only works on the stock Android 6, maybe someone will find a solution for the guarantee it's impossible to hand over the phone purchased with AliExpress.
Hi, i have a similar issue with my ZUK, i have changed ROM, and after flashing it went to constant bootloop. i thought it might have been an issue with the rom, so i flashed again, but the problem stayed. Phone started and gapps were installed ok. It worked well for a bit and then it went to bootloop again (last time was when i switched from camera to video). I have formated data, to start clean, flashed rom again, but this time it got stuck on the ''android'' logo and doesnt seem to go further. Phone is recognisable by my PC and i have access to internal memory.
I have same problem now ...nothing working for me ..please help

Yes, unfortunately it turned out that the battery has been damaged and that was just nit enough voltage to startup the phone, I have replaced the battery myself for cost of approx 15 usd. It is very easy to open the phone ad replace it, as all tools are included with battery, you just need a hairdryer to melt the acrylic tape holding the glass back of the phone.

Sir but in my case I can go to twrp recovery easily, without any issues.
After your battery replacement the phone was back to normal self, i.e the room you previously installed was working without any issues?
Or did you had to use qfil and start from stock 2.5 zui and then re unlock bootloader and install twrp and custom ROM?

Hi,
Did it work well before?
Did you do a full fw flashing before?
Have you tried to change the radio in *#*#4636#*#* yet?

No Full Flashing before or even now
I tried to change Radio, thanks for your trick, but it does not work!!!!
I still need your help
It's a weird problem. I think you should do a full fw flashing if you bought a 2nd phone. If it's a brand new one, I have no idea about this situation :"|

Have you tried a factory reset and use a different Google account? It could be restoring a setting or app causing it

I can't help further unless you cooperate to troubleshoot. When you are able to factory reset to nuke any stuck bits and start fresh on a new Google account, (not a secondary one you already have, a brand new one) then we can try pulling a log from a fresh install to see what is blocking it.
Edit: the factory reset would need to be followed up with a fastboot -w command to ensure everything is wiped. If you don't want to do this, then you cannot be helped.

Did you buy it online?
Besides the model, what is your software channel and build number for your phone?
i had similar problem and factory reset still resulted with the same issue. I had to do a full retail rom reinstallation and that fixed the problem.

Yes, I bought it online from coolicool.com, this is first time ever I bought one Moto from outside of USA,
Software Channel: retcn
Build Number: OPXS27.109-52-10
Thanks for helping me
The model and build is exactly like mine when I first got it.
First off, I think it's how they flashed the rom that's causing the instability. Your phone would most likely have it's bootloader unlocked like mine but they did something to hide the warning message.
Please read my thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/help/request-advice-experts-tourbleshooting-t3928349
You will see that I flashed a retail rom using instructions from this thread. It would be step E of the thread. Worked like a charm for me in fixing all the unstable apps
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/how-to/guides-bootloader-twrp-custom-roms-root-t3805737
You will have to flash your phone so you really have to follow the step by
step instructions.
I did it for the first time in my thread, it's not hard to do step E if you follow it step by step.
Hah, mine was from coolicool with random issues too. Emailed them, no response. Paypal claim, no respond. Full refund!
Will follow the guide above.
Just check first if bootloader is unlocked. (That's step a). Before you proceed to step E.
I'm assuming it's already unlocked because we have the same issues, build and model number. Mine was unlocked when I received mine. Also from China/hk

why it's unlocked?
it's not Original and it's not from Motorola?
I saw in bootloader it's flashing_unlocked and I was surprised why unlocked????
are you sure if I do these steps problem will solve and also are you sure after installing new stock ROM dual sim work well?

This is my pure speculation. the reason why its unlocked is because it was originally a chinese phone with chinese roms that doesnt have playstore. That must have been the original setting. Since they want to sell it to the international market, they had to unlock the phone and voiding the warranty, flash it with the new international rom before selling it.
Since its unlocked, essentially the warranty on your phone is void. The issue i found is that they must have flashed the wrong rom so its causing all these apps to crash.
Again thats all speculation and theory.
Now the only reason why I'm suggesting this method with you is because I had the same issue, I researched and tried the solution I posted. It worked for me. If you are going to flash a stock rom for the first time, you just do your research and do it one step at a time. Instructions have been provided in the second link (step E) including all the files you require to install the retail rom. It worked for me. I can only suggest, but it's up for you to give it a go.
I loaded the latest RETAIL (-05) factory image and all apps are functioning fine now. Issue was supplier had flashed -06 ROM, assuming because it said APAC in the description.
happy it worked

I was so confused during the last month. The random apps that were impacted by the issue didn't make sense...
Banking app
ABC Kids Listen App
Kids Daycare App
FuelCheck
Images on CyberFlix
Only one of the devs managed to get their app working for me in the odd state it was in. DayCare app of all things!
Thanks for posting, I wouldn't have thought to reflash or even look at the region code of the flashed rom compared to the compatible one.

Yeah it was so random, i really thought i got a faulty phone. Mine was all GPS/ internet related (Uber, Spotify, maps)
Nothing made sense but I took the research and decided to flash to stock rom, discovering they installed the wrong ROM and HIDING the fact the bootloader was unlocked. Definitely not your average issue and hopefully this would help other people who are in similar situation buying from any china/hk store.
I even bought the moto mods, and they are working perfectly after reflashing. Pretty happy with overall result.
