Power control widget auto rotate toggle issue I have Samsung Galaxy nexus running official Android version 4.2.1. Problem is that the auto rotate toggle on the power control widget is not working properly. The toggle will change state, but the auto rotate feature state is not changed. I have to go to Settings -> Display -> Auto-rotate screen checkbox to change the auto rotate feature. The toggle button on the power control widget is unable to change this checkbox status.
I was wrong about the setting, it wasn't the auto rotate button. Power control widget doesn't have auto rotate, just Wifi - BT - GPS - Sync - Brightness.

From http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42405 :

What you consider to be the auto-rotate toggle, is the button to switch the sync!
It will switch whether your device will sync in background or not.
