IPhone 6 getting stuck in landscape mode

My iPhone 6 keeps getting stuck in landscape mode. Also the camera will not always open from the locked screen, it just bounces up and down but does not slide all the way up to launch the camera app. Is apple working on a fix?

Hi Sunnifromlondon,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone screen is not rotating as expected, there could be several potential causes. First, we can attempt some troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue.

  • Iphone 6 gets stuck in landscape mode

    Hello
    iphone 6 or possibly the ios update has some bugs.  For instance, it gets stuck in landscape mode even though the screen rotation is not locked.
    In addition, safari does not react quickly when trying to access the menu to close a page or add a new one.  It takes several attempts and after uing the home button several times, the menu finally appears.
    Please advise

    This is happening to me too.  Some posts indicates that it is more likely to happen in zoom mode and switching to standard mode fixes it, but my phone has always been in standard mode.  I am having this problem with an iPhone 6 128 GB phone with iOS 8.1.  I hope this is only a software problem and not a hardware problem.

  • Samsung stratosphere keeps getting stuck in landscape mode?

    All of a sudden a couple of days ago my phone started getting stuck in landscape mode, even when the auto rotation was off. I didn't mess with any of the settings to make this happen but sometimes I have to turn the screen on and off a couple of times before it goes back to regular mode. I even factory reset the phone today, but it is still going on.

    Hmm it would do that too, but I actually just realized what the problem was when
    I took the snap on case off. Apparently when I slide the keyboard down the
    bottom part of the screen goes beyond the part where it's supposed to stop. I'm
    guessing that caused some kind of censor to not work properly. But thanks for
    the help.

  • My iphone is stuck in landscape mode, even after restore

    Help! Today my iphone is stuck in landscape mode, even after restore system, safari, mail, camera and other apps don't rotate! I tried rebooth, restore and, when i open the apps, it turns to landscape and dont rotate. I locked to portrait position, but the camera stays in landscape, for example. And when i unlock the portrait the display of all apps returns to landscape!! My iphone 4 is new, i bought it november 2011!!! Please, help me!

    Double press the HOME key, then scroll the bottom ribbon to the right until the rotation lock appears at the left end.

  • IPhone 4 stuck in landscape mode

    For the last couple of days my iPhone has been stuck in landscape mode.  No matter what I do it will not switch out of landscape.  I've tried shutting it off, closing apps and even restored my phone but whenever I go into an app it automatically switches to landscape.
    Anyone else have this problem????
    Thanks

    Double click the home button scroll over to the audio controlls there is a button on the left that looks like a reload button that locks the orientation

  • IPhone 4 stuck in landscape mode after iOS 6 upgrade

    I used to have a fully operational iPhone 4 until yesterday, when I upgraded to iOS 6.
    Many apps including Mail, Safari, Contacts, Calendar and several third-party apps have been stuck in landscape mode since then.
    I have tried to:
    - reset
    - restore from back-up
    - restore to factory settings,
    without success.
    At the end of the day, I am not even sure whether this problem relates to iOS 6 or if it is just a coincidence. Anyway, the only workaround I found is to lock autorotate in portrait mode, which is not acceptable in the long run.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    Pb solved!
    Yesterday, my iPhone ran out of battery and powered off automatically. When I restarted it after a full battery load cycle, the iPhone was able to autorotate again.
    So far, so good
    Hope it helps someone else.

  • What do I do if my iphone gets stuck in recovery mode during a software update, due to an error occuring during the update?

    I tried to update my iphone to the ios6 software, and during the update there was an error. My phone is currently stuck in recovery mode and it says the only solution is to restore the phone. I don't want to lose my media, contacts, etc. Do I have any other options?

    Restore from a backup.  You do have a backup, right?

  • My iphone is stuck in landscape mode.  How do I get it unstuck?

    For apps that automatically adjust between portrait and landscape, it is always on landscape.  How do I get it to rotate when I change position?

    Double press the HOME key, then scroll the bottom ribbon to the right until the rotation lock appears at the left end.

  • HT201210 iPhone gets stuck in recovery mode when I update the software (last 3 updates and with 2 different phones) and I have to take it into the store. What's the problem?

    I have downloaded the most recent version of iTunes to my laptop and am smart enough to have backed up my entire phone to my laptop before updating the iOS software, but this is the third time that a software update has bricked my phone (first an iPhone 4S then a 5) and I don't have the time to go to the Apple store and wait for my everything to restore. I am running Windows updates and will restart my laptop to retry the connection between my iPhone and iTunes, but looking for suggestions.

    Yeah same exact problem as me.  EXACTLY.  In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
    MAN, a whole day and a half????  Crap I need my phone to work....
    I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something....  It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
    It's gotta be that.  How many other people are having this same exact issue?

    Hi Guys,
    My iPhone is stuck in a mode where it thinks the headset is still plugged in.
    I cant get any sounds through the speaker. Cant hear sms or emails arrive. If the phone rings i hear it but pple cant hear me or i cant hear them.
    The phone works fine with the headphones plugged in.
    I have tried all the usual solutions, inserted and removed the headset (at least 50 times)
    Soft reboot
    full restore
    Nothing seems to work. I have searched on this and it seems to be a well know issue but there doesnt seem to be any firm solutions that i can find to fix the problem

    If no change after inserting and removing the headset at least 50 times, powering the iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset, and restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

  • My ipad is stuck in landscape mode.  how do i get it to autorotate again?

    My ipad is stuck in landscape mode.  I have closed all open apps and rebooted, but still didn't help.  Any suggestions?

    Double click the home button, swipe to the right until you see the play controls for music, right next to it is the icon for the screen orientation lock. Tap on it to unlock the screen again, your icon in the right corner will be gone.
    tap on the home button to close the multitask bar again.
    Troubleshooting Rotation Lock
    If your iPad display does not rotate as expected, verify that Rotation Lock is off:
    Check the status bar for the Rotation Lock icon.
    Toggle the Side Switch to verify that the device is not locked.
    Note: Some apps do not rotate to match the current or locked orientation. Use the Home screen to determine Rotation Lock status.
    If Rotation Lock is off and you are still unable to rotate the iPad display, restart your iPad:
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears, and then slide to turn off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.

  • IPhone 3gs stuck in recovery mode, firmware iO 5

    My iPhone is stuck in recovery mode. I have a 3gs, firmware 5.0.
    Before I tried to restore it, my iPhone would randomly shut off, turn back on, and display a notification that said "Activation Required." Now, sometimes my phone would shut off again and return to it's previous working state. However, this time it did not. I put the phone into recovery mode and tried restoring it on my Acer Aspire 1 with Windows 7. iTunes put the phone through the various stages of restoration; Extracting Software, Preparing iPhone for Restore, Restoring Software, Verifying Restore, Restoring Firmware. After all of this, a nice little error message pops up that reads, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (1)."
    After this little mishap occured four more times, I decided to click "More Information," and was promptly brought to the help page set up here. I proceeded to troubleshoot by updating to the latest version of iTunes, updating my security, restarting my computer, and so forth until all the necessary precautions were performed. Now it was back to iTunes to try my luck at getting my life back.
    To my delight, I found that this time the restoration process took upwards of forty minutes to complete. However, to my despair, a nice little error message popped up that read, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (-1)." Ah, a different error message! i thought, feeling as if there was hope in fixing my phone. I clicked "More Information" and skimmed through the specific error messages, looking for that lucky -1. Nothing.
    I need help. I have attempted to restore my phone a dozen times since this occurence, and I'm growing tired of going through the same process over and over and getting the same result. My phone is stuck in recovery mode now. I've tried restoring the phone on 2 different computers, to find out if, in fact, the problem was my iPhone and not my computer.
    Some important information you may need to know in order to help me solve my problem:
    iPhone 3gs
    Running iOS 5.0
    Using iTunes 10.5
    On an Acer Aspire One Netbook
    Running Windows 7
    All security updates installed as of November 7, 2011
    Also iTunes 10.5 on Acer Aspire 57354774 laptop
    Running Windows 7
    Reply ASAP with a solution please!

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 3GS which I updated with the last firmware (iOS 5) 2 weeks ago. Everything goes ok.
    And suddenly, while the phone was recharching. It asked me to activate it but I was unable to do it as it was rebooting constantly every time I connected it to iTunes.
    I tried both 2 restore modes (Restore and DFU) but since I can't achieve a restore with the last Apple iOS 5 firmware. I got the error code 1.
    I I tried on 3 different computers but same error. I really don't know what to do next...
    I already called Apple Customer Care and I'm still waiting for an answer. I let you know.
    And you, did you manage to get your iPhone back alive ?
