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.
Hi like many I use the mx pro player for watching videos, the swiping up on the left hand side of the screen whilst watching a video shd change the brightness but for some reason left and right swipe up controls the volume.

Maybe you need to change the brightness setting to manual and not auto.
Brightness setting is set to manual

MXplayer swipe brightness control was working before I rooted. Now its not. I'm having some other issues with browser2ram so I am going to disable that and see if its the culprit. Installed another brightness swipe control from market and it works fine. BSplayer also fails to swipe control brightness after root. Anyone got to the bottom of this yet?
UPDATE:
I found out that two apps I run were causing the problem. Backlight Switch and Display Brightness. The latter was the one I just installed from the market from the post above. When either of these were loaded at boot then neither MX or BS Player's swipe brightness works. If I disable them as startups (need root) then swipe brightness control works again for both apps.

I thought I found something like that in the settings, but now I can't find it. Maybe that was BS player. One of the two had an option to change the default swipe side for volume and brightness. Does swiping up on the right side control the brighness? If so, maybe they are switched in the settings.
All-
I was having so many problems with both MX and BS players over wifi, and in my exhausting search and troubleshooting, I came across a BETTER PLAYER hands down. Check out Dice Player. Works for me in all cases and I can have other brightness control apps loaded and its swipe brightness control is unaffected. Great app. I don't use the other two any more.
Clear data of the application in app manager hope it work
Problem solved for me
Hi!
I had the same issue: no videoplayer was able to adjust brightness by swiping on the screen. All this went away after I unnistalled an app called "floatifications".
Hope this helps you, too!
I have the same problem on my Note 2. I don't have any kind of app like floatification in this topic. Any solution?
Try locking the input using the lock button given by MX player (not the physical one on the phone).
I've also been having this issue recently where the brightness isn't affected unless I lock the input. Unlocking will reduce brightness again.
Try uninstalling any ram booster application.
I had the same problem wit my mx player too and started removing apps to check any compatibility probslem and foumd out that if i install any sort of ram boosting software the brighness control stops working....
Unfortunately , I have same problem with my Nokia Xl phone , in the past it was responding very well to adjust brightness level, but now it is'nt responding like it was in the past!! .
I think that maybe a problem in the room itself, and maybe it is caused by do root wrongly .
I'm having problems with my tablet on landscape, the wallpaper just won't rotate to 180 or 270 degrees. Stock nexus 7 wallpapers work flawlessly but Everytime I try using a picture it just won't work. I have quick pic installed and I've tried using it and gallery app to set wallpaper with same results.
Anyone else noticed that xda just keeps on refreshing itself on Chrome? This is the only site that has this bug for Chrome a d it's annoying. Dolphin and Opera do not have a problem
Can't help you with the first problem but this post will fix the last problem.

Hi everyone,
Could anyone tell me how i can disable background rotation on my Galaxy Tab S 10.5? I want my background to be fixed even the rotation is on.
Cheers.
Search in the play store for screen rotation apps. Some let you only rotate a certain app and rotate every other apps. I use an app called rotate to force a certain app to be rotated in a direction without messing up the other apps. But its only a trial and you would have to buy it after a week.
I think op wants his wallpaper to not rotate
I need (want) that too. Been searching for an app or live wallpaper but didn't find anything.....
Exactly what i want. If i use different wallpaper other than stock then it keeps rotate. I would like to turn that off if that's possible. Went through the whole settings but didn't find anything. Btw the apps rotation is good.
Cheers.
1. Some apps seem to not have the ability to pinch to zoom video. Is there a way to have zoomed in those apps?
2. For apps that already support zoomed full screen video, is there a way to set that as the default?
Thanks!
No way around this annoyance!!?!
Unfortunately some haven't offered that feature.
