google maps + compass

Hi
I cant find any documentation on if google maps for android actually works with compass mode?
Do you mean that the 2D map view should rotate according to your position?
As far as I know the compass only works in StreetView mode (and then of course in Google Goggles app).
Although I might be entirely wrong
yes compass mode works but the map doesnt rotate. the blue triangle rotates.
oww... that sucks a bit doesnt it? Should be fairly easy to make the map rotate... but its better than nothing i guess. On my blackstone I have to move 10 meter in quick pace to get a gps-bearing... quite anoying when your on foot

Is there any fix or a way around camera rotation when uploading?

This is super annoying, I tend to shoot video/pictures vertically, because I like to just use one hand. It seems that when I play my gallery back through the phone, the picture looks right, but when I upload it to facebook and etc, the video or picture is rotated sideways.
I hate having to go into PS to re-rotate it back, is there a fix or a setting for this?
facebook should auto rotate pictures to the way they were taken. Either there is a problem with your facebook app, or there is a problem with your phone's gyroscope, and it's not recording the correct orientation in the exif data of the picture
Thanks for the reply. Hmm, it seems that it has always been this way. But I do notice that facebook does have a rotate option upon loading a pic/vid.

how to display filmstrip mode in photo gallery

Hi all:
By fluke of chance, there was only once that managed to somehow get my photos in gallery to arrange itself in a horizontal straight line, like a filmstrip. (I enter the photo gallery by going into camera, and then tapping on the photos to view my past taken photos.)
Does anyone know what I am talking about, and what is the finger gesture or method to get the app to display my camera photos in a filmstrip mode? thanks!!
When you're in the gallery and have the picture in landscape, swipe left or right several times quickly to scroll the pictures along like a "film strip". The picture that it stops on will automatically fill the screen. Oh, and you do not need to access the gallery via the camera, this will also work by entering the gallery directly.
ah, it works! thanks so much! I found that quickly swiping about 3 times will do the trick. and it also works in portrait mode too!

Pinch to zoom

Stock Maxx, the pinch to zoom will zoom the picture but not stay zoomed. Once you let go, it pops right back to the full image. I've tried several picture gallery apps and cant seem to find a setting to control it. Anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?
Thanks in advance.

Fullscreen

Hello everyone,
I did some searches on this and all I can find is i have to pinch the screen to zoom, problem is with apps like youtube and hulu the zoom cuts off the top or bottom of the video.
Is there a way to get fullscreen without cutting off the video?
I went into settings and fullscreen display but no apps display in there
