I've always had this issue and just never asked till now. It's not related to cm9 or any ROM as it's always happened. Pics will show the correct orientation in gallery/camera but as soon as I attach to send in an MMS message the picture displays sideways. Anyone know why, or how to fix this? It's annoying when I send a pic to my gf cause she can only look at it sideways, and her screen is much smaller than our Epic's so it's hard to see.

Additional info. Apparently according to her saving the pic gets it to display the proper orientation. However when sent it's still sideways. This does "not" happen when she sends me a pic though. They are received from anyone else in the correct orientation, it's only when sending.

The orientation is correct when I choose the photo. It "attaches" sideways and sends as such.

That's why I said rotate in gallery so when it attaches its correct

I shouldn't have to. Then I would have to go in and correct my pictures in gallery every time I send one. I should add this is only for "camera" pics. Downloaded pics send with correct orientation. I'm trying to get to the root of the issue so I no longer have it.

lost, thats not always true. it depends what type of "os" the recievers phone has. non-android and non-iphones don't correct the orientation.

zei, check on her prevail in the menu - settings - display, and make sure "auto-rotate" is checked marked.
Are you using the FFC or rear facing camera? And if using the rear facing camera, are you holding the phone where the camera button is on top or on the side (vertical)? I believe Samsung designed it this way. It assumes if you're using the back camera, it's to be taken in landscape mode, and it displays each picture as such.
I remember reading about this, or something very similar, a short time after I got my Epic and it was a known problem.
The opposite I believe is also true. If using the FFC, it assumes you're taking the picture in portrait mode (vertical) and will display the picture accordingly.

What messaging app are you using? Might be a setting in your/her app.
Stock messaging app. It's not her phone, it shows incorrect orientation in the messaging app "before" sending, shows that way on the other end, then corrects after she saves the attach and views it through gallery. And yes, it's only portrait photos that do this, landscape shows properly. Not sure the reason for the camera saving the picture in the proper orientation in the gallery but it displaying differently when attached to send as MMS. Why would that happen if the orientation is already correct before attaching it?

I'm experiencing same problem...on cm9

There's adobe photoshop express, a free photo editor fr the market that can be helpful w/ the orientation........however, this does not fix the actual problem..........get the mismatched setting less often, but am never sure when it'll reappear............so for those 'flipped' images PS Express is my personal quick fix!
..........sent from today's android = 4.0.3!
Problem only exists when picture is taken with phone in regular position...when using sideways like the camera app opens in problem is gone.so looks like that's our fix.

That's not a real fix. The problem isn't in the camera. The camera takes the pic in the proper orientation, and it displays correctly in the gallery. It's in attaching it to MMS.

Its some issue in android iirc, its done that as long as I can remember. If you take a picture in portrait, it'll send it in portrait, but landscape pics get rotated(or is it reverse? I'm sleepy atm).
My "solution" is to "crop" the picture, but select the whole picture, it essentially copies it, and sends correctly if you attach the "cropped" picture. I know its an extra step, but it takes about 30 seconds so it's easy to get used to
I am Z.
Has anyone else noticed that the pictures taken with the camera that are seen in the gallery are a bit washed out? it seems that when i take a picture its bright but when i go and preview the picture its rather dark and dull.
anyone know how to fix this?
Check ur screen brightness...its just that when u view the picture the screen brightness becomes low....dont worry the picture is as perfect as you are...

Why cant I view pictures in full screen get black strips left and right very annoying got nice big screen and can't view photos in full screen

Is this in the gallery or an app?

If it is the stock gallery which you are talking about than it is a bug. I have the same issue.

That's probably because the pictures aren't in 16:9 aspect ratio.
If you took them with the camera app, the default ratio is 4:3. Note 2's screen is 16:9.
You can change the camera's ratio in camera > settings icon > resolution.
Can't find that in settings and it is stock camera app doing my head in
I'm running PA 2.54. I don't send pictures too often, but I just had a minor issue with sending MMS pictures taken in portrait. They show up in landscape mode on the stock Messaging app.
Go SMS will allow me to rotate it correctly, but I'm trying to get down to the bottom of this.
I'm going to flash TW Messaging app on PA. I'll update when I try it.
UPDATE!: TW mms didn't install, even after I unistalled stock mms.
UPDATE2: Found out that it's nothing with messaging app. It has to do with the gallery app. Depending on what the settings are even in portrait the details are reading 270 rotation when it should be 90.
UPDATE3: I'm posting a picture with what I'm experiencing, but I have posted below another picture with what I want. (picture below)
UPDATE4: TEMP fix for now would have to still be GO SMS PRO

They just show up that way on your device. I'm running the same ROM. Once you send them the other person will get them the right way and if you click on the photo after its sent it will correct its self.

I sent message to myself will try someone else, but I received the portrait picture in landscape.
UPDATE: Just tried someone else's phone and they received the portrait picture sideways, also I sent a picture to me from their phone, they showed up as sideways and that's how I received it.

Also, check this out. This image was taken on a different ROM, I don't remember which one, but I'm almost sure it was Re-Calk ICS.
The image has a different filename.
That picture is only #######.jpg
The pictures I take with PA is IMG_########.jpg
The picture that is on the mms was taken on a different ROM. And it seems to be ready to send correctly.
This is what I'm experiencing.

This has been a problem for quite a while on some of the custom roms.... No solution has been determined.

It has everything to do with the gallery app. I was using root explorer and was on my pictures under:
/sdcard/DCIM/Camera
I noticed only a few pictures pictures were correctly oriented when taken in portrait.
I'll find out what ROM it was on.
