Help Apps loading upside down

As the topic says, I open an app and it rotates upside down >.> they wont rotate back and is stuck... started this morning. I've tried restarting the device and reinstalled all my apps. The home screens are normal. Anyone else have this issue? Solutions?
 
Have you recalibrated the G sensor? Don't have my N7 with me, but I am sure it must be in the settings somewhere.
On my One X it is in the display and gestures section within settings.
I also use Google Sky Map and there are many suggestions to hold the device at arm's length and rotate your wrist in a figure of eight to recalibrate the G sensor.
 
If you flip the tablet do the apps rotate? I have seen iPhone apps run only in one orientation on an iPad.

No they don't, even if I hold it upright, it won't budge, even the settings app rotates upside down >.> and there's no G sensor calibration on the device.

Should mention I'm rooted on stock JB
 
Ahhhh rooted ... how about the locked rotate setting when you drag down the top status? menu at the top center of the screen? The top being the end with the camera lens!

Each time I press enter or change to another app, the screen rotates upside down. Screen is locked. In advance, thanks for your assistance.
