Oct 4, 2014 11:40 AM in response to unofby Clyde Rastetter,Good call NerevarReborn, this seems to have resolved the issue—although I won't be completely sure until I've been using the phone for a little while. I didn't follow your instructions exactly but I did a "restore iPhone" in iTunes which wipes the phone and then freshly installs the most up-to-date software and restores from your backup. I think the problem was indeed caused by trash code/bugs leftover after updating to 8.0.2 from 8, as it seems that everyone on here who's experiencing issues updated as opposed to starting with 8.0.2. Weirdly, after doing the restore everything seems a bit snappier on the phone as well.

Oct 5, 2014 8:06 AM in response to joe_7399by chuckbp,I am having the same problem both with a iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 running iOS 8.0.2. Never had this problem before IOS 8 and a reset hasn't helped at all.
I have to rotate back to portrait mode, then back to landscape to get it to work.

Open compass app. Recalibrate. Reboot the phone.
Seems to have fixed this issue for my iPhone 5

Oct 5, 2014 9:13 AM in response to chuckbpby MN_Av8or,I was having some issues with ITunes and syncing so I restored my phone and direct installed 8.0.2. The problem still persists for me after that software update/install.

Oct 5, 2014 4:56 PM in response to NerevarRebornby rickcons,I'm having the exact same issue, so it's not just you. I haven't found a fix yet. One suggestion was to disable the Reachability function. I've done that but can't say yet if it fixed the problem. Even if it does, it's not an acceptable fix. Disabling features just to fix a bug is not an acceptable solution. I know Apple doesn't respond much on these threads, but I hope they're reading. There's a problem with this. I was surprised how few people are talking about it.

Oct 5, 2014 6:40 PM in response to NerevarRebornby Clyde Rastetter,Yep, that video shows exactly what happens on my phone. Really annoying.

Oct 6, 2014 2:32 AM in response to jules_xxxoooby Clyde Rastetter,Tried the compass thing but didn't seem to have any effect. And I've had reachability disabled since it started happening in hopes that it might have been causing the issue but—obviously—it isn't. It really is surprising how few people are talking about this because it must be a fairly common bug..

Oct 7, 2014 3:01 PM in response to MN_Av8orby Janeag,I have had the same experience with any pictures I take. They are always not in the right orientation. I have been given a new iphone6 but now I think it isn't the phone but the software. Better fix it soon.....

Oct 10, 2014 7:59 PM in response to REPGby Janeag,I have the exact same phone. I tried the suggestion of opening up the compass and calibrating it by rolling the ball around. Seemed to do the trick for now anyway!! I did have to turn it off completely first and then back on.
It's worth a try. Good luck - very frustrating. Good luck. Hope it works for you.

Oct 12, 2014 9:59 AM in response to Janeagby REPG,I tried your solution, and it seems to be working so far.
I have just discovered a new issue: I am not able to interact with Calendar at all when I switch from Portrait to Landscape mode with Calendar open. However, it works find if I open Calendar with the iPhone in Landscape mode.
