1. From the home screen, tap and hold the "Notification Bar" at the top of the screen.
2. While holding the screen, swipe downward.
3. Here you can now tap “Orientation Lock“. When it is on, the green indicator will be lit. The screen will lock in the position you currently have it at. When it is disabled, the screen will rotate normally.

Option 4...

If the three prior options don't work for you, try removing the battery while the device is still on, leave it out for a few minutes, and then replace it.
