Auto rotation lag in home and lock screens

Currently my ipad mini 2 is experiencing a minor bug on its rotation. I have tried to reboot, force reset, erase the device and even restore the device through itunes. The auto rotation is extremely slow only on homescreen and lockscreen. The problem will be solved only hard reset or reboot is done, but after a period of time of usage (few hours), the problem occur again which is permanent until the next reboot is performed. The current iOS version is on 8.1.3. I have also found one of the display unit in an outlet, which is ipad mini 3, having the same issue. Is this a software issue or hardware? I have tried to send my ipad into the service centre, the problem still exists. The video provides an evidence for about the problem reported. Thanks. http://youtu.be/xsseXJNxOAo

Thanks for posting the video of the issue. Is this after restoring from a previous backup or from a restored as new state? If you're using a previous backup to restore the device, I would personally test the device fully from a restored as new state. If the issue only occurs when being restored from a backup, the issue is likely with the backup. Sometimes, backups can contain odd glitches that can't be resolved except for not using that backup.
I do find it very odd that you found a display unit that also had the same issue however.
Try enabling the "Reduce Motion" setting under Settings/General/Accessibility
Also try enabling "Reduce Transparency" under Settings/General/Accessibility/Increase Contrast
These two settings seem to generate the biggest performance hit on the fluidity of the screen rotation. I'm not saying they will help or resolve your issue however since that kind of lag is something I've never seen before, even on my mini 1 (I now have 2 mini 2's).

    You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get it serviced/replaced. You broke it. If you can't even force a reboot, there's nothing much more you can do.

    It's too late now to worry about not having backed up. You have to restore the iPad or .....
    A. You can have a device that still has all of the photos on it but you can't get to them because the device doesn't work
    or.....
    B. You can restore, lose the photos and have a functioning device again.

  • HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

    Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??  Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen.  Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello, cliffiapp4.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

  • My home and lock screen is draining my battery, why?

    My husband just bought me a new iPhone 6 and my Home and Lock screen is draining my battery.  Its using 43% of my battery it has been recently updated with the newest apple update.  Please help me resolve this issue.

    Poke around in the notifications. You may find a lot of stuff defaulted to on that you may not need. Also look at the background app update and background app refresh.

  • Home and lock screen draining battery 4s

    Home and lock screen draining battery 4s.  Also I can not turn the phone off, it keeps restarting itself.   I'm guessing these issue may be related.  The phone is set up as a new phone, no apps installed. 
    Usage and standby time are equal even though the phone isn't being used with "home and lock screen" taking up 90% battery power. 
    Can anyone help me with a solution?

    Try again to set it back to factory settings, using iTunes and again not using a backup afterwards. If this does not help, you'll have to get your phone checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or by contacting Apple Support:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

  • The iPhone update 8.3 (12F70) is making my home screen wallpapers darker than the picture itself. Even if I set the same picture as home and lock screen wallpaper, the home screen image is noticeably darker. How can I change this?

    Is anyone else noticing the same issue?
    I'm really unhappy with the upgrade, the darker home screen images alters the coloring and detracts from the overall "light" feeling.

    Apparently it's been an issue since 7.1, according to this: http://forums.imore.com/ask-question/282076-black-tint-across-top-my-lock-screen -wallpaper.html
    The iPhone 6 is my first iPhone so I've never used iOS 7 before. Can anybody who has provide more info on this?

  • Pictures for home and lock screen...

    The image will only go so small. Before the update to ios7 you use to be able to shrink an image and allow black space to show but the new iOS wants all image to show

  • How do I get rid of the gradient that appears on both my home and lock screen?

    Hello, I'm curious as to if there's an option for being able to get rid of the gradient that shows up on my wallpapers whenever I set it/unlock my phone.
    If possible, can it be made customizable? Like, to be able to have the option of not having one at all, and what color we'd like the digits (on our clock) to be? This seems more like a suggestion rather than something I'm actually seeking help for, but if possible, can this problem be solved? I (and many others) are not comfortable with the dark hue in order for the time to be visible. Can the place of the time be customizable as well? (agh I'm sorry for acting kind of greedy but it seems like much of a problem.)

  • My iPad mini is dead. Please help. I have tried pressing the home and lock buttons, it just wont work.

    Hi,
    Last week, whilst charging my ipad mini, I took a look at it was charged upto 91%. I then decided to let it continue charging till 100% and would unplug it then. 30 Minutes later, I returned to my charger to find a dead ipad.
    I tried everything (including pressing the home and lock screen) but it would not wake up. I then promptly took it to the service centre at Plaza Singapura and the customer service personnel said I would either need to pay SGD 450 for a replacement or alternatively just leave it as it is, dead.
    Hence, I am urging the person reading this message to kindly suggest a better solution to re-awaken my dead iPad and also my faith in the company.
    Thanks

    If the Apple Authorised Service Provider has quoted you an out of warranty service fee then they have most likely found a hardware fault. If that is the case the iPad does need to be serviced, whether it is with the Service Provider or a 3rd party company is up to you. Keep in mind going with a 3rd party option can cause you to be denied serviced from Apple in any future services.

  • How to mute and lock screen rotation at the same time? Loved this feature in iOS 5.

    How to mute and lock screen rotation at the same time? Loved this feature in iOS 5.

    You cannot do two different simultaneous VISA writes over a serial bus. There is a single rx line on the pc's com port and a single rx line on the instrument. You only hope is if the instrument allows you to chain commands and the reception of the carriage return triggers the instrument to implement both at the same time. Maybe you can send CTS01 and CTS02 separated by a space or comma. The manual should tell you if that's possible or maybe you need to ask the manufacturer.

  • I have reset my iphone 5c and now has apple logo on the screen. I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail. How do i sort this please ?

    I have reset my iphone 5c and now it has the apple logo on the screen.  Nothing is happening, apart from the screen going off for a few seconds, only to go back to black screen and white apple log.  I have tried holding home and lock buttons for 10 seconds, but to no avail.  I did a reset on settings as the IOS 8 was just slowing down my phone horrendously.   How do i sort this please ?
