Question

iPhone app stop rotating after few touches or sometimes stop rotating at all, other times works just fine. Any idea where to look for the problem?

My app is designed to support auto-rotate and works fine previously until I added some code that move JSOn data loading to another thread.

Answer 1

Are you trying to do the rotation through the other thread? If this is the case then the you must make those calls on the main thread. UIKit is not thread safe, anything not done on the main thread is not guaranteed. What you must do is call performSelectorOnMainTHread NSObject method in order to get the behavior that you are expecting

Answer 2

are you calling

[[UIDevice currentDevice] endGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];

anywhere in your code? if not, I agree with the previous answer that you must just be confusing UIKit somehow.
