For some reason, when at the home screen, my phone won't change layouts. Is there a setting somewhere i'm missing or something?

it works in apps like mail and messages, but not when i'm at my home screen, any ideas?

I had the same problem it worked fine at first and then I did a restore from a backup. When I restored it enabled portrait lock since I had it on my other phone.

Trying turning off portrait lock. Once I did that it started to work again.
 
yeah mine's set to off so that didn't work :(

although i did restore from a backup
 
It's because you're in zoom mode. The home screen won't rotate when in that mode.
 
Check the display zoom setting and disable it if it's enabled.
