Solving Auto-Rotate Issue in Micromax A116 Canvas HD

Micromax Canvas HD A116
MicroMax A116 Canvas HD has one issue in the box pack piece.. the G-Sensor Calibration is too off and owing which it simply doesn't auto-rotate:


Good News is you can easily fix the issue by calibrating the auto-rotation sensor..  


Do the following for steps to fix it:

  1. First switch OFF the mobile
  2. Then we have to switch it ON but by pressing 3 keys - PRESS (Both) UP & DOWN KEY ALONG WITH THE POWER BUTTON to switch on the mobile
  3. Enter Factory Mode
  4. Select ITEM TEST
  5. Select G-SENSOR CALIBRATION
  6. Put the mobile on a Table such that the CAMERA is outside the surface, we will have to ensure that the mobile is completely horizontal and not tilted because of the camera that comes out at back cover.
  7. Press SETTINGS Key and Do NOT TOUCH the mobile.. The calibrations will start NOW..
  8. Once Calibration is DONE....Go Back and then REBOOT the mobile your problem will be solved....
  9. Micromax Canvas A116 is an awesome mobile, Enjoy it!!
Some users have found that this issue comes back again.. but it works fine for most of the users.. To solve the issue if it comes back you can install an Screen Orientation Control App from Google Playstore and manually orient the screens when required. Its also a good option to lock your screens when you want it oriented in specific way even when you are moving your mobile.


Thanks

  7. I found that this issue reverts back and I personally have started using SCREEN ORIENTATION CONTROL APP. It works for me by manually setting the orientation as required..
