I have Springtomize so when the home screen rotates it looks all jumbled on top of each other (since Springtomize doesn't let you customize columns\rows portrait vs landscape), so I want to disable the home screen from rotating.

Is there a tweak that'll do this? I know you can lock rotation from all aspects of the phone, but I don't want that, just the home screen to not rotate.

Thanks!
 
Just asking, is your phone jailbroken? I didn't see the thread. lol There is a way i bet

i know lol :(. Im thinking of jailbreaking my six+ when it comes out.
 
There's also a tweak called PortraitLock that lets you enable/disable rotation on a per-app basis. Works really well! I have it set up to disable landscape mode in everything but photo and video apps.

Nah just need the home screen only.
 
Yes you can. The tweak is called Notate.

Sorry if I am thread jacking but I'm looking for something similiar to notate but just for the inverted portrait homescreen rotation (I still want to use it in landscape). A lot of the time when I grab my phone out of my pocket while walking (I keep it in my pocket upside-down) and quickly unlock it the homescreen is upside-down and I have to tilt the phone a little bit and wait for it to rotate back.

SBRotator for iOS 8?
 
disable home screen rotation on jailbroken AND non-jailbroken devices

Go to SETTINGS>DISPLAY & BRIGHTNESS>VIEW> ZOOMED
