 Description   

Since updating to the new version of MCPE, released today, I can't switch anymore between different gamemodes. When I change the mode in the setting and re-enter the world, nothing changes and it still is in the mode it was at the time of the update. This affects all worlds I created, before and after the update. Need help.

I also have this problem so I decided to download the game on another of my devices and it doesn't work there either. I'm terribly frustrated. I would really appreciate it if this bug/error could be fixed.

Affects 1.2.0.2 according to MCPE-24232

I'm guessing by the look of the world's NBT data that it only is changing the world's "default gamemode" and not that of any existing players (thd single-player NBT data is affected in the same way)

This also happened to me but the nether portal is the trigger of the event.

Is this happening on Realms? That used to happen to me on Realms, I would turn off the server then change it then turn the server back on.
