OnePlus 2 rotation problem

Post by UriTidhar
I have just bought a new OnePlus 2 smartphone.
When I put it on the side, Waze doesn't rotate. All other application rotate as expected.
Any solution around?

What OS does the OnePlus 2 run on? If it's Windows Phone, there are several threads about Waze not supporting rotation on that OS.

I have the same problem. I did uncover a workaround. Launch the app. Rotate the phone. Then click on the bottom left Waze icon to pull up the Menu. Tap the Settings icon (the wheel) and then the screen will rotate.

Not sure why Waze is affected, as at least one other app (Chrome) rotates correctly. But it's likely an Oxygen OS problem.

It happens w/ Google Maps as well. Yeah, I think it's Oygen OS prob.

Workaround:
1) Ensure Auto-rotate is on
2) start Waze
3) hold phone in landscape position
4) "Recents" button
5) Choose Waze

The OnePlus 2 runs on OxygenOS, an alternative build of Android (a bit like CyanogenMod f.ex.)
