Cydia Installer v1.1.15 Released
On Reddit thread Saurik suggests that the landscape mode for unsupported device other than iPad and iPhone 6 Plus was a bug in Cydia installer v1.1.14:
Cydia is not supposed to work in landscape mode on any devices other than iPads and the iPhone 6+. This was a bug :(. (What is confusing me is that the code looks like it would fail to rotate on the 6+, not succeed in rotating on everything else.)
It is rather unfortunate that other devices lost the landscape modem but somehow to stick with Apple’s UI it is considered a good decision, look at the above image just to view how the landscape looked like on iPhone 5s.
