iPhone 5S, 8.4. The orientation is not locked, I checked that already. Other apps do rotate successfully when I rotate the phone (messages, safari, calculator, etc) but the camera won't record videos in landscape mode. The timer that appears at the top of the screen when you're holding the phone vertically in video mode is supposed to shift when you rotate the phone to let you know you're recording in landscape mode, but it doesn't do it anymore. I recently dropped the phone in a cup of water and haven't been able to switch to landscape since then, so I'm thinking that it must be a hardware malfunction but I just figured I would post this anyway. My phone wasn't charging after it got wet so I shut it off for 24 hours and it worked fine when I turned it back on, but this problem still lingers. Any ideas? Reboot / app killing does not fix it.
EDIT: Now my phone doesn't switch to landscape for any apps. It worked fine earlier today for safari and calculator but now they don't switch either. Must be a hardware problem?
