Xcode can't change back to landscape from portrait automatically

I have an iPhone app in which the RootViewController instance starts out in the landscape mode. It supports camera so it changes to portrait mode to take a photo. Once done it comes back to the RootViewController instance but the orientation doesn't change to landscape. I want this to automatically shift to the landscape orientation.

I tried adding

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight animated:NO]

in viewWillAppear method of RootViewController or viewWillDisapper of CameraViewController but orientation doesn't change. How do I programmatically change the orientation?

Try implementing following method in your controller.

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
    if((interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) || (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight))
        return YES;
    return NO;
}

Hope it helps.
