This is a hardware issue that only affects some of the phones. I did a factory reset and no additional apps installed and still the phone stopped to auto-rotate every day needing a reboot. RMA'd the phone, the new one does not have the accelerometer problem anymore. However, it has the focus problem in low light conditions which the first one didn't have. Not sure I will buy another LG phone in the future.
