Ive used google and all i find is folk that want to turn it off and apps that will turn it off (I dont have anything like it on phone), Me i like it and want to turn it back on so just how would one go about that?

I'll explain... lol

On IOS4 there are various new features. Auto-rotate locking is just one of them and this can be enabled and disabled by double clicking the home button which will bring up the multitasking bar at the bottom of the screen then swipe your finger across the bar to the right and it will give to ipod controls. You can then turn it on or off by clicking the icon on the left. I believe this feature is only available on iPhone 4,3gs and iPod touch 3g, becaue multitasking is disabled on other models unless the device has been jailbroken and multitasking enabled.
