Anyone else have a screen-rotation on wakeup bug?

Sometimes, when I wake the phone up, I'll get the lock screen stuck in landscape mode. It's an easy fix, open and close the KB, but it's annoying when I have my phone set to a 5 min lock timeout (CISSP here, data security is your friend; especially on a phone) and I keep having to open/close the KB to unlock it in portrait. It even seems to stay stuck in landscape while unlocked and brought out of standby; again the only solution is cycling the KB, which seemingly activates the accelerometer driver and polls it.

It could be something like the cleanup cab doing it or something else, but I can't see how; unless GoodThings2Life modified the accelerometer polling or behavior in an attempted tweak.

So, am I alone in this annoying bug or not?

I have had this happen to me on countless occasions and I am not running the clean up cab. Personally I doesn't bother me much but I can understand in your case.

Same thing happens here. It's not a bug. It's a "feature"
