Power control widget auto rotate toggle issue

Android Enthusiasts Asked by user1014639 on December 24, 2021

I have Samsung Galaxy nexus running official Android version 4.2.1. Problem is that the auto rotate toggle on the power control widget is not working properly. The toggle will change state, but the auto rotate feature state is not changed. I have to go to Settings -> Display -> Auto-rotate screen checkbox to change the auto rotate feature. The toggle button on the power control widget is unable to change this checkbox status.

I too was thinking the sync button on the Power Control widget was the auto-rotate buttong. However I've found that by touching the top status bar and dragging it down gives me an auto-rotate button without having to go into Settings, etc... This is available while inside most apps so you don't have to exit to go to the settings panel.

I was wrong about the setting, it wasn't the auto rotate button. Power control widget doesn't have auto rotate, just Wifi - BT - GPS - Sync - Brightness.

From http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42405 :

What you consider to be the auto-rotate toggle, is the button to switch the sync! It will switch whether your device will sync in background or not.
