1In certain tablets like my Nexus 7, the orientation can be locked. Check under Settings to see whether any such setting is preventing your tablet to change orientation (landscape <--> portrait). If other screens like the settings screen work and the app under test does not work, then it means that the app developer have constrained the orientation.– NarayananCommented Jul 12, 2013 at 7:32

@forsubhi If the problem is solved, add an answer to your question and accept it, so that other visitors know that you've solved the problem.– Dan HulmeCommented Jul 12, 2013 at 8:04

In certain tablets like my Nexus 7, the orientation can be locked as seen from one of Google search result:
Check under Settings to see whether any such setting is preventing your tablet to change orientation (landscape <--> portrait). This can also be achieved quickly with a drop down from top left corner of the display. If other screens like the settings screen work and the app under test does not work, then it means that the app developer have constrained the orientation.
