iPad mini4 orientation lock???

MY iPad won't change orientation. The orientation lock in control panel is OFF but the only way I can get it to change is a hard reboot. Then it works while I use it but once I put it to sleep it stops working again.


sofrware is up to date - 10.2.1


thanks

Hi. There are some suggestions here Re: Screen rotation not working that may help. There have been several (53) reports of this on iPad Air 2. Your device has the same M8 motion chip, so it may have the same problem. Please be sure to report it to Apple here https://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html and be sure to mention your specific device.
