Android camera resulted image should be rotated after the capture?

Question

I\'m writing an Android application that uses the camera. I\'m setting camera display orientation to 90, my activity is in a portrait orientation:

camera.se         


        

Answer 1

Problem is the camera orientation is a complete disaster (as is capturing an image) because OEMs do not adhere to the standard. HTC phones do things one way, Samsung phones do it a different way, the Nexus line seems to adhere no matter which vendor, CM7 based ROMs I think follow the standard no matter which hardware, but you get the idea. You sort of have to determine what to do based on the phone/ROM. See discussion here: Android camera unexplainable rotation on capture for some devices (not in EXIF)
