2) Accelerometer not functioning - games/auto-rotation are not receiving input from the accelerometer
3) Caller-lookup is not functioning. Every call received shows up as "Unknown", no matter who the caller is.

I'm running JF-1.5, and things have been working for a long time, but only suddenly stopped.

At first, this seemed like a hardware issue, but now i'm wondering: are there any software type issues that could cause these issues?

Thank you all very much for any input!
Not sure if this helps but I am experienceing the exactly same thing. I am running the current version of cupcake t-mobile is punting out (1.5 Kernel ver 2.6.27-00393-g6607056 san@sandroid #1 CRB43) and noticed the problem occurring over the weekend. (11/July/09) Although I have just been using it as a mobile for the last week so may have hit me at the same time. Sounding like a dodgey update. I've been trying to get mine working as a test bed for an android app but not had much success so far so that can't have hit me.

Apps confirming are the same, streetview is as lame as an iphone, GPS Status showing me the satellites but no compass. Skymap is not opening, and steel is not autorotating as are all other apps which usually do. Weird thing is the magnometer is working. I have the silly Metal Detector app and it was reading correctly.
