tat might be the G-Sensor, you how ur pictures goes from landscape and when u tilt it back it goes to portrait.
theres a mini ball tat touches the sensor to detect how you hold ur phone. Gravity technology... Brilliant!! This post has been edited by shaznizzle: Dec 20 2008, 10:47 PM |

Accelerometer chip is built on the circuit board, if the chip falls then your rotations won't work.
In this case, I think it's something else. |
