Tablet Orientation is Incorrectly Detected

[locuturus]

My Pixel C and Nexus 10 both do this thing where if I am in landscape and I enable the service then the screen will immediately rotate to portrait. So then I rotate the tablet physically to the same portrait orientation and I get the circle in the corner. If I tap that circle, still holding the tablet in portrait position, the screen rotates to landscape. This will repeat and so the service always wants to move the screen 90 deg away from how it really is.

Can you: enable rotation, disable the app, hold the tablet in portrait mode (wait for it to rotate to portrait), enable the app? Does it help?

unfortunately i had a friend telling me about a similar thing on a Samsung tablet.

I have the feeling that it's not working very well. The only thing i can try is reproducing with the simulator, but I'm not sure if that's going to work :/

If I turn the tablet around and tap the circle I can eventually find a combination that results in a lock to landscape but this is not a great work around because I have to change orientation sometimes or disable the service to install apks or whatever else.

On my adam tablet I do have the same issue. Tap'n'Turn is interpreting the screen orientation wrong by 90 degrees. The procedure explained in the second post does not help. If I am in portrait mode an activate the app it instantly turns the screen to landscape mode which is 90 degrees off again at that moment. While turning the tablet the screen orientation consistantly stays 90 degrees off if I let it rotate.
