Edit by @unknown:First, I want to say that I love this bug, because it allows to use AFK farms easily, which is way harder with a touchscreen than with a PC. If you fix it, please give us an other way to get the same effects.
Please keep the description focused on the bug itself, not
feature requests.
Steps to reproduce :
-touch the screen
-flip your phone
-release the screen while the image is rotating
What I expected to happen :
Nothing
What happened :
The screen kept thinking it was pressed where my fingers were.
This can be very useful to break the snow in a snow farm or travel a long distance easily for example, so again, please consider adding a "normal" way to obtain this behavior before fixing it.
This isn't a duplicate of MCPE-11347 because :
-It doesn't happen randomly
-It isn't caused by lag
-It stops when touching the screen again

Could you please specify the device that is affected?

The name of the phone is "soshphone 4g". It's a generic ZTE phone that run Android 4.4.2. I tried to reproduce this bug on an Ipad 2 (iOS 6) using MCPE 0.14.2, but the game doesn't turn upside down unless automatic rotation is activated, and I could not reproduce it either. MCPE is the only app I know that can turn upside down when auto rotation isn't activated, and other apps aren't affected by that bug, so I guess those phenomenoms may be linked.
Almost an edit : actually, the youtube app can also turn upside down when auto rotation isn't activated. However, it isn't affected by the bug.

It happens on Fire HD6
This bug has been around for a long time. See MCPE-6882 and MCPE-7905.
I just confirmed it on a Samsung Galaxy S6 andoid 5.1.1 running MCPE 0.14.2. How I reproduce it, hold forward to make the player move, flip the device to rotate the screen 180, release the screen and observe the player continue to move forward. Other interactions (such as mining and moving forward) work too, creating an exploit.
Cannot reproduce in my Asus B121 win10 tablet : when screen rotates, it flashes black and the input being held is lost.
Awaiting further confirmation on Win10 and iOS. My win10 tablet's autorotate is buggy...
Further comments will be placed on the parent ticket MCPE-6882.
