@valca33

if the backup went ok, you should be able to retrive from settings > backup & reset 

as for the app, if you repaired the phone with XC the data stored on the phone was deleted, as the message warned you when you ran XC

Hey my auto rotation stopped working
I tried to repair it with Xperia companion and it worked but
Later it stopped
I played Just Dance with my phone and I think it could be from the app
Do you have any solution for this?

Hi @valca33,

I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing troubles with the auto rotation again. Slightly_frowning_Face

I would recommend that you restart your phone in safe mode to make sure a third party application isn't the cause of the auto rotation not working.

Let me know how it goes! Slightly_smiling_Face
