Description

Locking the device orientation snaps the onscreen image to that orientation. However, it doesn't work the other way around.

To reproduce:

1. screen.lockOrientation('portrait-primary');
2. Turn phone sideways, to landscape mode
3. screen.unlockOrientation();

Expected:

1. View rotates to match new orientation

Actual:

1. View now appears sideways, as if no rotation was registered.
