Ipod touch 5th gen tilt function not working

Hi
I recently got a replacement (from apple) for my Ipod Touch 5th Gen 64gb due to the home button being broken. It is running the latest software which I believe is IOS 8.1.1
Note - other than the broken button I had absolutely no issues with my old Ipod.
When I received the Ipod only 3 days ago I did the normal process of restoring from back up etc but have noticed that the tilt function is not working.
I have tried all the obvious solution - first being checking portrait orientation isn't locked, then resetting the Ipod via holding down lock and home button and finally I have done a factory reset and still have had no luck with this issue. Is there an easy fix to this or am I going to have to go back to the Apple store?
Thanks

If you successfully restored (went through all steps without error) to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Ipod touch 5th Gen App Store not working

I just reset my ipod touch and I am trying to login to the App Store, I am already logged into my icloud that I used before resetting my ipod, I tried to log in but it said it didn't exist, so I got on my laptop and made a new account, and when I tried to log in, again it said it didn't exist. So I decided to try and make a new one again on my phone, but everytime I typed in an email it said it existed already I even typed in random letters and numbers several times and it still says the ID is in use.I am going on a vacation soon and I want games to play

What was the exact working of the message? "didn't exist," does not seem like an error mssage.
Does the iPod connect to the internet via Safari?

Why does the iPod Touch 5th gen 16 GB, not have a rear-facing camera?

I am looking to replace my daughter's iPod Touch 4th Gen 16GB, but I can not find a model like hers that has a rear-facing camera. The new 5th gen 16GB, only has a front-facing camera, where the 32GB and the 64GB have front-facing and rear-facing cameras.
My question is, why is that?

lllaass said it, because thats the budget version, its much cheaper. The 16GB costs 229$ and the other ones with the back facing camera 319$ or 419$.
Apple always sold a budget version of the iTouch.
With the 2G in 2008, the 8GB was much cheaper than the 16 or 32 GB.
With the 3G in 2009, the parallel kept the 8GB 2G for a reduced price.
The 8GB 4G in 2010 was also cheaper than the 32 or 64GB one.
In 2012 - June 2013 they kept the 4G iPod next to the 5G.
And now the only sell one model - which is the 5G due to the fact that only this model can run iOS 7, and they needed to remove a feature in order to reduce the price.

Trying to upload to youtube a 16:9 video through my ipod touch 4th gen and its not working.

Hey i have managed to download the Imovie for the Ipod touch 4th Gen, I can't seem to export or upload to youtube a 16:9 screen just a very thin screen. I don't have a apple mac, I have windows vista. I realise for some features you have to use a apple mac. So is there anyway that I can fix this problem, thank you for your time and patience.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My ipod touch 5th gen 60GB will not respond to charge or turn on!!!!!!!!!!!!

My ipod classic will not turn on! I have tried plugging it to a charger. I have tried to press the menu and the center button at the same time and it dosen't work. Although my middle button is stuck and you have to press it hard it has always responded and worked when you pressed it.! Please help me I need this iPod to start working!!!

Very confusing post - Do you have an iPod Touch as listed in the header or an iPod Classic?
To Reset, you must press the menu and center button for at least 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON.
When you connect to a wall charger or PC, what do see on the iPod Screen?

IPod Touch 5th Gen charging cable wont work

So I got my iPod Touch last year around in November... about 3 months later my lightning to usb cable started playing up on me, (my cable was the one i got in the package BTW) it would only let me charge in a specific position for about 2 weeks and I noticed some little bumps on the pin point of the charger.. after 2 weeks my cable just completely stopped charging my iPod. So I went back to the Apple store and bought a new lightning to usb cable and i took very good care of it. Now its playing up on me AGAIN! It has only been about 2 motnhs since I bought it and yet again it has those little wrinkly bumps on it. Now my cable has little holes and I have absolutely no clue how it got there. I thought this was just my cable and that I just have bad luck but my friend had the same problem with her lightning to usb cable for her iPod 5 too. I dont think there is anything you can do but I just wanted to make sure Apple has been aware of this incident! Thanks!

Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. The cable is covered by the same one-year warranty as the iPod itself

IPod touch 5th gen jack problem

Hello,
So here's the problem. I have a 32gb iPod touch 5th gen and it's working fine until I plugged it into a portable speaker. (THe ones used in PC) The sound that came out had a static background. Now, every time I plug Apple's default earphones into the jack, the sound that comes out is too loud. Adjusting the volume doesn't help. It's as if the earphone had turned into a speaker. What's worse, there's still the static background. It's like tuning on an FM station with really bad reception.
I've done the ff, and nothing worked so far:
1. Reboot
2. Reset settings
3. Tried 3 different pairs of earphones.
What should I do. I would also like to add that I can play the music through the iPod's built in speakers without any problems. It's just the jack.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

Have a new Ipod Touch 5th gen, that is not being recognized by my hp pc...also have downloaded Itunes and Quickstart, but
nothing seems to help...my ipod does seem to charge while being connected there is no indication that it's even connected.
Can this be a windows 7 problem?

No.
See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Run this to help if it identifies the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?
