Description

Bug happens if you have an app that is locked to portrait mode and have a component that temporarily turns the app into landscape. While iPhone is turned to portrait mode it works normally but once you turn it to landscape (from view that is locked to portrait) and fire the component that is supposed to turn the app to landscape the app doesn't turn. Similar bug happens when turning the app back to portrait.
