Galaxy Note II - gyroscope and accelerometer /orientation sensors not working

[vonuzu]

Hello,
I've been facing this problem for a while now and can't find a solution. The gyroscope and accelerometer sensors suddenly stopped working. It was all good until something happened and i don't know what. Since than I tried almost everything to resolve this issue but nothing works except: turning off the screen rotation, going into download mode then pull the battery and restart the phone again, and that don't work always either, sometimes i have to do this 4-5 thimes.
So to be clear, I tried flashing all of the roms, custom tw, aosp, cm... I tried woth the latest 3 official 4.4.2 roms flashed via odin, factory reset, clear and erase everything from recovery than flashing... And nothing helps.
So what i want to hear is that this issue can be resolved, and it is not a hardware problem.
Thanks.

I already tried with stock firmware, and stock is contains pit file. So i guess it's not working too. Or am i wrong?

Thanks for the reply.
But the pit file is only used to repartition the memory, and mine partitions are ok. No issues with them.
So are you sure that pit file will solve my problem or you're just making a suggestion?

just making a suggestion

The pit file tells Odin how to divide the partitions (for formatting) and also where certain components go when flashing them individually

Possible fix

Here is a solution to sensor problems, especially after flashing custom firmware to the GSN2 is this:
Turn off auto rotate, power off, boot into Odin/download mode. Once there - pull battery and reboot. Turn auto rotate back on, should work fine. Otherwise may be a hardware or firmware issue...Hope this helps somebody.

This one actually works, i have tried it before and it works, but after a while it stops working again. I will read and try the other solutions as well. Thanks for replying.

If you find something else feel free to post.

I've just used a pit file with the latest 4.4.2 firmware. Everything went smoothly, and for now the sensors are working. I'm testing and we'll see.


Thanks.

Nothing.
This is very frustrating.
I'm going to give up.
Tried everything, don't know what to do anymore.
