IPhone 6 Plus Screen Orientation Sticks

i have a 64gb iPhone 6 plus the screen orientation can go wrong pictures are upside down and then you have to power off the phone
any person with the same problem
Come on Apple get to right

It's not a hardware problem so far as I am concerned.  Hardware problem would indicate that the accelerometers are "sticking" and making the phone think it's actually upside down.
The weird thing is - on mine, when this happens, the springboard screen is completely upside down upon unlock.  If I continue to hold the phone right side up and I open any apps - they will correctly launch in the home button-down orientation.   Once I leave said app, springboard is still upside down.
If it were an accelerometer (hardware) issue - then the apps would also load in the incorrect (upside down) orientation.   It simply is a bug with Springboard and I have no idea how to reproduce it - but I can say that it seems to randomly just decide to wake from sleep upside down.
For me - the only way to "resolve" the issue is to restart the phone by either powering off and back on, or by holding both buttons until I see the apple icon (warm reboot).
For clarity - I am using a 128GB 6+

  • My iPhone 6 plus screen orientation is not working properly

    I Bought my iPhone 6 plus 64GB on launch day and I haven't really had any problems, until a few days ago... My screen orientation will randomly flip upside down from the Touch ID home button. It it will be horizontal when I'm holding my device verticle, if I turn on the orientation lock the screen will return to normal but that's a temporary fix. I'm pretty sure this is a hardware problem, but I'm not positive. Is there a way to fix this?

    Try hard resetting your phone:
    Hold down the power and home buttons simultaneously until the screen turns off, then let go. Then press the power button to turn the phone back on. If that doesn't work, you may have to take your phone in to an Apple Store. Given the fact that you just purchased it, you will most likely get a replacement phone free of charge.
    In the case that you decide to bring your iPhone in, make sure to create a backup first.
    See these articles for more information:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Wishing you the best of luck.

  • Iphone 6 screen orientation problem

    I have an iPhone 6 running IOS 8.02. The screen orientation will not change. The screen lock is off. The compass is calibrated. The screen setting is normal, not zoom and I have reset the phone a time or two. Suggestions? Thanks,

    Ah, that is a good question. It was not rotating in any apps but it is now. it does not rotate on the home screen but that is probably something that does not bother me.

  • Iphone 6 plus screen flashing white and black

    My iPhone 6 Plus 16Gb suddenly started to show screen artifacs, like flashing with white and black, so I can't see the springboard only black and white screen. Restart of the phone didn't help. Even when the phone is booting, Apple logo doesn't appear and then again flashes. As it seems on background everything is working, as I can receive sms and phone calls. It is just the screen. iPhobe 6 Plus is brand new, I've been using it for 1 week and it never dropped. No physical damage, no nothing, just flashing

    Have you tried a Reset by holding down the Sleep / Wake Button and the Home Button at the same time until the white Apple logo appears, then let go of the buttons, but wait until the Reset completes and you are back at your lock-screen?  If this doesn't work then do you have a computer with the current version of iTunes?  If yes and you already have a Backup of your Media and Data on iCloud or iTunes, then you can put the iPhone in DFU Mode.  Don't do this unless you have a Backup and also have a computer with the latest iTunes.  You will need your Apple ID and Password.  To go to DFU Mode you can hold the Home button while you plug the Lightning Cable into the iPhone, a graphic will appear on the iPhone screen showing that you need to connect to iTunes.  At that point just connect the iPhone via the Lightning Cable with USB into your Computer.  Open the iTunes App on the Computer and wait until a button appears representing the connected iPhone.  Then click on the iPhone button on the iTunes screen and it should open to the Summary page.  At that point you can Restore the iPhone to Factory Settings and bring it up as A New Phone.  The iPhone should screen should then show Hello and you will need to connect to your WiFi via your Router WiFi Password and then answer all the question put forth by the iPhone.  When the "Lets Get Started" occurs you can thoroughly check out the iPhone to make sure it is all OK.  When satisfied that things are good, you can plug into the computer and iTunes and this time Restore from Backup.  or if you Backup is in iCloud you can Restore over the air. 

  • My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare

    My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare+. I bought my iPhone 6 plus 3 months ago in Singapore.

    $129 US. https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/ For local pricing call your nearest Apple store. If you live somewhere other than Singapore you'll have to send the phone to someone you trust in Singapore and have them take the phone in to have it repaired. iPhone's do not have an international warranty and can only be serviced in the country they were purchased.

  • IPhone 6 plus screen cracked. Please advise best course of action.

    Hi all, hope someone can help. My son has a iPhone plus and has just cracked the screen. He is very careful with all his devices and has never broken any thing like this before hes very careful. But what I'm asking is what is the best way to get this fixed. We are in Northern Ireland. Please help any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

    Hey SciGibson,
    Sorry to hear about your son’s iPhone. The best course of action would be taking it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider to get it fixed. Take a look at the link below and put in your location in the Service section to get you the closest shop to you to take care of this.

  • Iphone 6 plus screen crack, how much does it cost.?

    Had iPhone 3,4 and 5 and never had protective case. over the years phones fell several times. they even fell down on road, except for small dings on the edges they  never had cracked screens.
    6 plus screen cracked after falling less than 3 feet (from back pocket) on to wood floor, even with protective case (bought case so that it won't slip from the hand, phone being so slippery).
    I think,  Quality of apple hardware and software went down drastically with latest round of refresh.
    iOS 8 has lot of issues.
    usually hardware is high quality but seems like that is not the case anymore.
    Even worse part of the experience is:
        had online chat with apple support person and (Julian) he/she mentioned he/she will give me a deal for $129, fixing the screen.
        After a quick google search, seems like list price of fixing the screen is in fact $129, I don't think there is any deal  (see the question).
    Question::
      How much does it really cost to fix the screen crack. screen is working fine.
    https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/      
    Page lists price as $129 but support live-chat person mentioned around 350 something and offered deal of $129. 
    Did anyone had the iPhone 6 plus fixed ? if so how much did it cost, without applecare.??

    Whole unit replacement of an iPhone 6 Plus is $329 USD + tax.
    Screen replacement only is $129 USD + tax.
    Either you misunderstood, or they were simply trying to explain how a screen replacement is less expensive than whole unit replacement.
    Why do you care if it's a 'deal' or just the normal price?  Are you wanting to be treated special and different from other Apple customers?

  • IPhone 6 plus screen corner bright white

    Hello everyone :
    This is my first ever post.Here's the situation.I got a brand new iPhone 6 Plus and when I was browsing on Safari, there's a tiny white gap between the screen and the glass. I check the other phones in other Apple Store and I see all of them have similar gaps between the display and the glass.Wanna ask does this problem occur to u as well.Because I am considering to refund the phone and buy a new one again.

  • Best iPhone 6 Plus Screen Protector

    I have a Zagg for my iPhone 6 but my sister is looking for iPhone 6 Plus screen Protector, I wonder if this LUVVITT is good brand or not for screen protector,
    They look good but Im not sure for my iPhone 6 Plus
    LUVVITT Screen Protector for iPhone Plus

    Go with the Arcadia Oleophobic Tempered Glass screen protector ! It is amazing!! I bought it because its the only one I've found to have a 5 star rating on Amazon and its only $11.95! It works great, goes on easy and doesn't inhibit the touch functionality at all. Its super hard and protective but is also thin enough that it doesn't seem like its even there! I would definitely recommend this one over any other ones out there!

  • Iphone 6 plus screen frozen when downloading movies from itunes

    My iphone 6 plus screen froze up when I tried to rent/download 2 movies on iTunes. I did  not have enought free space to accommodate I guess, so instead I tried downloading it on my iPad since I had more storage space...but when I tried to rent it on my iPad instead, iTunes says I already rented it... Will I be paying for the two movies I rented since I dont have enough space to watch it? And how do I unfreeze my screen?

    Hello there, Zara2aj.
    When renting movies on your iOS device, the following Knowledge Base article explains where to locate it and the availability of that rental on other devices:
    FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    Where can I find movies that I rented?
    Find your movie on the device you used to rent it. Follow these steps:
    Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
    iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
    Apple TV:
    2nd or 3rd generation: Look in the top shelf of the main menu.
    1st generation: Go to Movies > Rented Movies.
    Where can I watch movies that I rented?
    Mac or PC
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch (with iOS 3.1.3 or later)
    iPod classic, iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation)
    TV using Apple TV
    Watch your movie on the device you used to rent it. If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Cracked Iphone 6 plus screen

    Hello guys,
    So I recently broke my iphone 6 plus screen, and I'm trying to find a reasonable fix for it.
    I know it doesnt get covered by warranty, even thou it's valid until Januar.
    I'm from Slovenia and the local store asked for 466€(506$) for a repair, which doesn't seem fair at all.
    I can see for US are around 130usd for a screen replacement, which is a lot different from 466€(506$).
    What can I do? Can I ship my phone through mail to different country?
    Thank you for your replys.
    Regards, Rok

    and chat online with an Apple representative he might offer you a less expensive option. 300 euros is just abusive. GL.
    If it was purchased in the United States, then there's not a local option in Portugal.
    If it's just a screen replacement, perhaps.  But I see no prices in Portugal in the Service Answer Center. 
    But in Spain?
