I'm sure it must be obvious but what is a "him" button? are you using an abbreviation or am I just not connecting? I did manage to do it again with the status bar. Orientation lock is off but the phone still doesn't go into landscape mode when I turn and tilt it. I have no trouble doing the notification center with the status bar method.
Thanks. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! Then God gave me a new heart and life: His joy for my despairing tears! And now, every day: "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
