ZR screen rotation issue with lollipop

I updated my Xperia ZR to Lollipop yesterday, and found out the screen doesn't rotate itself when it's connected to the charging dock. Instead of rotates to horizontally in Android 4.1-4.4, the home screen now stays on portrait mode in Android 5.0.2. Anyone else has the same issue?

Yea same issue here, accelerometer, compass and proximity sensor stopped working... Any fix would be appreciated... Imo wasn't a firmware update issue but from what I've read so far it's an issue with other updates such as Google update...

Not sure about rotation (maybe @Hampus can take a look). But related to lifelog,has any of you tried to clear data for lifelog in settings-apps-all?

Hi,

Regarding the screen rotation, have you guys for example tried to boot the phone into safe mode to see if same behaviour appear?

The same issue here, no compass, proximity sensor and rotate. Have you fixed?

Yes, it was fixed by restarting the phone. But I had to do it twice.
