The HTC One M9 is one of the best flagship smartphones that has been created by HTC. But it has been reported that an issue with the smartphone is that the HTC One M9 won’t rotate and gyro has stopped working on the smartphone. This is noticed when the screen rotation is activated and turned on. For some, the HTC One M9 screen doesn’t rotate even on the Internet page and is stuck in the vertical and won’t go horizontal when the camera is moved.

In addition, other problems that has been happening with the HTC One M9 is that the default camera is showing everything upside down (ie, inverted) also all the HTC One M9 buttons are upside down. If none of the methods that are explained below fix the problem, then there could be a software bug issue with the current software and it’s suggested to update to the newest software offered.

For those interested in getting the most out of your HTC smartphone, then make sure to check out HTC’s wireless charging pad, the Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Activity Wristband, and the Mophie external battery pack for the ultimate experience with your HTC smartphone.

An effective method to check if the phone’s gyroscope or accelerometer is functioning by doing a test. This will help to see what the real issue is when the HTC One M9 screen won’t rotate. You can do this by pressing the code (*#0*#) on the HTC One M9 key pad. Once you are in the service mode screen, tap on “sensors” and do a self test.If the wireless carrier you’re with has disabled this option to access the service screen, then ytheur only recourse here is to reset the phone to its factory defaults. To learn how to factory reset the HTC One M9, read this guide. It’s also recommended to check this issue with your service provider first though as they may know by now that the problem exists and have some solution for you.

Another out-of-the-box tip from some that we don’t suggested doing is hitting the HTC One M9 with the back of your hand to give your phone a gentle jolt. If you want to take the risk, you may want to do that, just be careful
