the home launcher doesn't rotate unless your phone its connected to the wall charger.

that's odd, its supposed to rotate with the wall charger and/or dock

Is there any way to make home screen rotate?

there are 2 options

1) use a different launcher

2) check the XDA forum as they mod the apks and as I recalled they figured it out

other than that, using a Dock/charger

I had a thread on this, and the official answer was that it must be connected to a Dock for it to rotate, I wish it wasn't like that but to rotate all the time.
