========================================
Auto rotation does not work, gyroscope and accelerometer are missed in sensors list in android application, or in adb cmd, sensors dont work in any app/game.
Looks, like broken after update to last version, reboot didnt help.
After first reboot in safe mode, it worked few seconds, but then fully dont work everywhere.

Auto rotation not working, sensors missed
@Tima
I tested with my ZS620KL, the auto rotation function can work normally. If it cannot be used normally in safe mode, I might suggest you to restore the system. Sorry for any inconvenience it may be caused. 
Please try the following steps to access recovery mode for the Factory Reset:
0. Try to back up your data with USB cable. If you can not access the phone, please check if your google account or microSD card have auto backup your data. 
1. Power off the phone, then keep pressing "volume down key"
2. Press "power key" and stop press " power key" once you feel the vibration. Still keep pressing "volume down key"
3. Stop press "volume down key" once you enter [Android Recovery] Screen
4. Choose "Wipe data/factory reset">"Factory data reset"
5. "Reboot system now"

1) What is "8mos"?
2) Do your sensors work in games and programs and are they in the list of sensors? My - not.
3) Tech support wrote me next:
"You also said that the problem is widespread, but search in the system for the last 3 years without giving a good result around your request (the search was carried out in the European region)"
4) They said that my sensor problem rather is not software.
