Explanation

The most common and likely cause of a screen not rotating on a tablet is that screen rotation is locked. Most mobile operating systems include a rotation lock toggle in quick settings that prevents the accelerometer from changing the display orientation. A damaged screen protector (B) would not affect orientation logic. A malfunctioning digitizer (C) affects touch input, not rotation. An inverter (D) controls backlight brightness on older LCD screens and has no role in screen orientation.
