I recently noticed that my screen orientation icon at the bottom of the today screen has disappeared. I tried the registry tips mentioned under services, and the gdi folder, but the icon hasn't come back even after a couple of soft resets. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to go through the hassle of a hard reset, especially since I'm moving to another country in a few days.

I have the same problem.
I think it's with the startup programs every boot/soft reset.
The only solution I had was to hard reset, but when I restore my backup it disappears again.
I'm still looking for the program that was installed that somehow overrides the startup service of the rotatescreen.dll

I seem to have fixed it for the time being. I edited showicon to 1 in the HKLM/GDI/Rotation, file -> exit resco file explorer then immediately soft-reseted.
It might have something to do with my uninstalling Skype to install on the SD card though...good luck.

Unfortunately I don't have Skype installed...
and I've tried the registry...
so I'm left with finding out which program I've installed is the culprit for overriding the startup of the screen rotate icon service...
as of now, I've somehow learned to live with it not there...

Have you tried both locations in the registry? Set hideUI to 0, and showicon to 1. then immediately exit your registry program after affecting the changes, and soft reset, lemme know how it goes :)
