[Q] My pics and videos auto rotates! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

My Samsung Galaxy Note II camera app captures pictures/videos one way but after it saves it auto rotates. This stops me from posting my videos. You can rotate pics later but you can't really rotate videos. Does anyone know how to fix problem?

Make sure your auto-rotate toggle is properly checked off (adjust it and run a few tests to see if that doesn't help) if still no dice than you might need to get an app that allows you to adjust the orientation of videos but considering your issue is unique (if your rooted and on a custom ROM) then you might need to clean flash again to see if that doesn't help

Personally havent been looking into too much but apparently there is a CM 11 for TMO that is downloadable (in the general tab) but not quite sure about functionality yet and omnirom is out as well for our device but that has bugs (so new) and not reliable enough, IMO, to be a daily driver yet

No, smart stay works when the room is lit but I like to watch videos in bed which makes it impossible because smart stay doesnt work in dark.

I just want to open browser and be able to watch damn videos. Why do I need to install screen timeout apps and click it everytime I need to wqtch something. How convenient is this?

Yeah , it's annoying.
But I guess Android Jellybean system files dont support adobe flash out of box so maybe tweaking system files for screen time to support flashplayer is needed.

Try Screeble, best App to keep screen on while in use, by using screen orientation / gyroscope/apps

Search for "Screen On" on Google Play. Free app, no ads. Tick the stock Internet browser and enable the service within the app (disable the annoying icon in the notifications bar within the settings). Voila, issue resolved.

Thanks a lot for that, works great

Front camera resolution

Does anyone know how (if possible) to access the resolution data within our phones and if it's possible to permanently change those data values? The current work around that I have to use it on a daily basis is the MIUI camera apk which lets you choose your resolution, but it only holds within the scope of that app. When using other apps, such as SnapChat, it reverts back to the default which doesn't function properly.
Any ideas?
You can't necessarily boost resolution by changing values. It comes down to a hardware limitation. If its only a 1.3MP resolution, then that's all you have to work with.

I'm not sure, it may already be too low a resolution to decrease anymore.

You can try a third party app like Camera360 Pro, but it will do so in software, which sucks

Well I already have the MIUI camera for everyday use. I'm trying to figure out a way to see if I can permanently change the resolution so that it holds for other apps such as Snapchat.
Bump
What you can do to make it work for the whole OS is lowering/raising the dpi, try looking up apps in the Play Store that let you change it, or apps here on XDA
This would only be for the phone itself though, not any pictures you take

Cool thanks, I'll give that a shot when I have some down time at work and report back.
Lowering the DPI had positive and negative results.
Positive: everything looked a lot crisper, giving it the appearance of having a higher aspect ratio
Negative: not everything flowed properly with the lower DPI and the camera issue within Snapchat was still prevalent
I'll switch back to the default just to make sure everything is functioning properly, but thanks for the help!
For the record, I read this, and used ES File Explorer to make the changes.
EDIT: I'm going to see if there's a camera setting in the build.prop file mentioned in that article that could help for just the camera.

i tend to argue against your advice. that's just absurd!
however.... a pair of vise-grips would work. just pinch it smaller! squeeze it on top and bottom and you'll get a panorama effect!

How many turns with the vise-grips do you think would do the trick?

[Q] No real hdr in CM10.1?

Hey guy's
I was wondering why the HDR fuction in CM10.1 is not working like in the stock camera app? Right now it only take 3 separate pictures instead on only one.
Will it be implemented in the future or is there any limitation?
They added it but it just doesn't work properly for now. They'll fix it soon I'm sure.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Yeah I really hope they get it fixed. Right now the function is pretty much useless as your picture end up being blurry...

[ROM][JellyBean][4.3.1] Unofficial BeanStalk - thread closed.

Future Beanstalk builds for jflte will be here. I will not monitor this thread any further.
Awesome! Do you know if the calling issues from 4.2.2 are still an issue in 4.3? Referring to calls ended before other party answers don't actually end. Also, does inline earbud mic work on calls? And is there an equalizer?
Thanks for sharing your hard work!

I haven't had any calling issues at all. But only 2 days doesn't make a good sample size.
Haven't tried inline earbud mic bc I've never used one and don't like it. If it works in CM10.2 then it'll work here too.
Equalizer is avail in DSP Manager.
You don't list HDR pictures as an issue. Was that fixed somewhere that I didnt see?

Is it an issue? I haven't tried. If HDR doesn't work I'll add it as an issue. Camera seems OK and Photosphere works great.

Since Watchon is included I'm assuming you have the IR working? Thanks by the way!

Anyone else having issues with data dropping and taking a while to come back on especially when trying to make a call it takes about 12 seconds before the call is placed or dials out?
If the data is fixed this will be one kiss %$# rom!!!

Focal - HDR comes out really really dark. 3rd party apps will just be blank.
Love this ROM!!
The only issues I've come across so far are:
1. I have my Notification Rows transparency set to 100% but for some reason my notifications will show as 0% transparency as soon as a new notification comes through in the notification drawer although it still shows 100% in the settings. Anyone use those settings and seen this issue?
2. Torch doesn't seem to be working for me.
Man this is sweet! Thanks

There's a lot of action in the CM 10.2 and Beanstalk github right now. Another build is on its way after I've tested it a bit. Right now the biggest issue is DSP Manager crashes when BT tab is activated.

Youtube Problem, please help.

Hi, everything about the new update of the youtube app is just fine expect for this silly problem regarding full-screen (landscape) and smallscreen (portrait mode). Whenever I am in full screen mode my 'scrolling bar' (the bottom action bar) gets completely lost, so that I have to retract to portrait mode in order to see it and forward the video to my liking. But that is very impractical when it comes to long videos because the bar is quite small.
Take a look at the screen shots for better understanding
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance and sorry if this is a dumb question.

what version do you have? Did you try to reinstall it?

yes, I tried reinstalling, clearing cache and caring dalvik cache in different orders and to no success.

It could just be a rom issue then if anything you can try Team Black Out's inverted version of the app, as that is the one I use and I have no problems with it :fingers-crossed:
nope it didn't fix it, tomorrow I shall try a different rom and see if that's the problem. BUT I didn't know about this 'inverted apps' thing, just what I wanted! Great suggestion, thanks! I guess they work just add the original apps and only the color is changed right? no battery issues or anything?

what I did was uninstall the old youtube app then went to the play store and looked for Team Black Out as they have multiple apps inverted available, then in their app just download the youtube app in a .zip file that you have to flash in recovery. Yes they only changed the color and no my battery remained the same I think glad I could help!
so I changed ROMs and everything is working fine now, for anyone else with the same problem

I don't think this is a ROM issue, I think it's a YouTube issue. I'm on a stock S3 and have the same problem.
