Orientation Screen stuck upside-down and freezing

iPhone 6 Plus on iOS 8


My phones home screen flips upside down when the orientation moves around then freezes in that orientation. It also happens while in the messaging app when it goes in landscape mode. They only way I can get t back to normal is by shutting my phone down then turning it back on. Help!


Im wondering if this issue is a software problem/bug or a hardware problem?

I have been having this same issue repeatedly for the past few days as well. My home screen as well as other apps like safari or messages also get stuck in landscape mode or upside down after unlocking my phone. Since this issue is not isolated, Apple needs to address it with an update if it is just a software issue. This is certainly annoying, and it is ruining my user experience.
