All iPads Rotation not responding after iOS 8.4?

[jonnyb098]

This has happened to me once or twice since updating to 8.4. It's not enough for me to really notice or care.

And thats why Apple is slow to fix many things. Too many either don't notice nor care.

Mine has gotten progressively worse to the point now where I will only unlock it with the lock button as that seems less likely to exhibit this behavior.

Installed the 8.4.1 update and afterwards ran into the issue twice so it doesn't seem to be fixed. But then again, it wasn't in the changelog.

I know this is an old thread, but I have an iPad Air 2 on the latest iOS 10.1.1 and am experiencing this rotation bug. The iPad will not rotate, it is stuck in portrait. I have toggled the rotation lock several times but it makes no difference. Reduced motion, unlocking by Touch ID or the lock button, it doesn't matter.

The problem is that the accelerometer is essentially dead until I reboot the iPad. Apps that can read the accelerometer data show literally nothing while this bug is occurring, its as if it's been turned off. All other sensors are showing live data.

Again, if I reboot the iPad, the issue fixes itself and then comes back later at random. Very frustrating indeed. Is anyone here still using an iPad Air 2 and having this issue?

EDIT:
As if by magic, I locked the iPad and let it sit for a minute, then unlocked with the lock button (don't known if that matters) and now rotation is working and the accelerometer is showing live data without a reboot. I don't understand this bug.

Same here with iPad Air 2 64GB LTE. Very frustrating.

I'm experiencing same thing with iPad Air 2 running 10.1.1. Quite annoying.
