Ok so as of 3 days ago, my accelerometer seems to of stopped working. I was running ahome, and everything was fine and dandy then all of a sudden it just stopped. wont rotate at all, no games work like papi jump, is this a hardware issue or software? Any idea of what i can do to fix?

Some games and apps are forced to be in a certain orientation...no matter how you turn the phone.

It's down to the application whether or not auto-rotate will work.

ok non of the apps like bubble or any of the papi's, even in the UK version of cupcake, which im running now, in the browser, sms, home screen it doesnt work and everywhere else it just doesnt seem to work. Is there a chance its actually broken? if so would i have to go through the process of getting a new phone? if anyone has any other help, maybe i have to do a factory reset or something of this such, let me know, thankks
