UIImagePickerController camera view rotating strangely on iOS 8 (pictures)

Question

I have a very simple application: - All orientations are permitted with only a button on a screen - The button show a UIImagePickerController (to take a photo)

Answer 1

This is the code I used to fix my app that was rotating the openCV camera into landscape if the camera was started with the device on the desk in Face Up position. The camera needed to be forced into portrait mode for the app to function correctly.

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotate
 {
    [super shouldAutorotate];
    return NO;
 }

-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{

    [super viewDidAppear: animated];

    if([[UIDevice currentDevice]orientation] == UIDeviceOrientationFaceUp)
        {
            if([UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft)
            {
                [[UIDevice currentDevice]setValue:[NSNumber numberWithInteger:UIDeviceOrientationPortrait] forKey:@"orientation"];
            }
            else
            {
                [[UIDevice currentDevice]setValue:[NSNumber numberWithInteger:UIDeviceOrientationPortrait] forKey:@"orientation"];
            }
        }
}
