When shooting using rear facing camera with the camera button on the right side, the video gets recorded upside down. (it displays/orients correctly on screen while recording)
When the video is played back on the phone, it orients correctly.
However, when you copy it to a computer OR play it via DLNA client (eg: TV), it appears upside-down/inverted.
The photo appear to be oriented just fine on both the phone and when viewed on a computer.
Also, while using barcode scanner app, the camera image appears inverted.
Bank of America - Check Deposit feature shows image correctly oriently.
Is this a software BUG that would be fixed? Or is my hardware faulty ?
It looks as if the sensors are stuck or broken........at times! -- I am hoping thats not the case.
Im having the same problem with barcode scanners. I need this for work it making my life very complicated right now
The chase bank mobile app for check deposit shows upside down image.
This is so frustrating....
Any inputs on how to fix this?

It's something each app dev will have to fix in their respective app, as Google has indicated it's not a problem with their APIs, but how the devs aren't checking for proper sensor orientation. LG in their infinite wisdom (or likely due to limited space in the case), decided to mount the sensor in a reverse-landscape orientation, which is contrary to every other device on the market.
Thanks for that input.
Looks like a total cluster fk. Hope the native camera app is fixed by Google soon. Right now the videos recorded are rotated 180° (upside down)

Is there any known way to disable autofocus in 'camcorder' mode & force it to focus to 'infinity' instead?
I was chasing a funnel cloud that was developing into a real tornado on Friday evening, but the moment I got off the freeway & was in traffic, the autofocus went berserk due to brake lights, and the best part of the video ended up being almost unwatchable because the autofocus kept screwing it up.
Also, are all the video modes 30fps, or is there any way to force 720p60, 540p60, or 480p60? I'm 99% sure the hardware is physically *capable* of it, even if the stupid camera app itself was dumbed down.
Finally, is there any camcorder app that can keep running in the background, so I can pull up a radar app like PYKL3 without terminating the video recording?

good question. i am actually looking for a solution to my problem. i can't manually focus the camera. it seems like the autofocus is stuck and wouldn't want to focus on close up objects. i'm running this rom by the way
Greetings,
My T-mobile Note 3 has a problem with the Rear Camera problem. I have to hold the camera on the subject about 2 seconds after the shutter sound, to wait for the line in the processing pop up window has scrolled across the screen. If i move the Note 3 before this is done the image is blurred or complelely lost off the picture. The image stabilizeation feature is on. The unit currently has Kit Kat (ver 4.4.2). Is there a setting I am missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have been noticing this issue as well, mainly after the update to 4.4. Prior to the update, i could move the phone when the processing pops up and it still had the right picture. I reduced the resolution down to 6MP wide and it still has the same problem.
Only way I found to fix the issue was to turn off the smart stabilization feature. I don't see a use for this feature right now as I am able to hold the phone steady enough.

Thanks for the advice.
I shut off image stabilization, same as you and the problem is no longer there. Thank you for your suggesting. I hope this issue will be addressed in a future update from Samsung.

Update:
I chatted with a Samsung tech support online in regards to this issue. The problem seems to have been addressed by going into the camera app and clearing the cache and Data (Settings -> General [top tab] -> Application manager -> Camera). I don't know if this is a permanent solution (I doubt it), but it addresses the immediate problem. Fortunately, it seems that the pictures taken using the camera are still intact. :good: Once again, I hope Samsung will supply an update to address this issue.
:good:

No Dice....I cleared the data and cache and tried taking a picture with the stabilization on. After I clicked the camera icon and once the processing info popped up, I moved the phone. The recorded picture was not the one that i was focusing on when i clicked.
And I thought it was just me and my phone. I've not been to happy with the camera on the 3 because of this and I'm rooted so I didn't feel like unrooting to take it back and try another phone. I still use Samsung camera for video recording. (Smooth video by the way is like no other that I've seen, even on real camera's.) I downloaded Google camera from phonearena and it works fine for pictures, Samsungs is fine to as long as you don't move but I'll keep Googles. http://click.xda-developers.com/api....4) - xda-developers&txt=http://goo.gl/VEBuiq
Recently, when I turn on the camera there are numbers on the upper right corner of the screen such as 31503, in front facing mode and 7104 in rear mode. The camera has never had this problem and the pictures still turn out perfectly fine. I just don't know the numbers are there and I want to get rid of them. I'm also wondering if I wanted to reset the phone's camera would that delete my pictures? Any suggestions would appreciated!
No it wouldn't delete.

the numbers are still there...but reset didn't affect my pictures either
Use Motorola camera port. Maybe it would help. And disable geo tagging.
form your explanation i think that you are talking about the number of photos that the memory can store, so for the front camera it will store more than the back camera as it has less mega pixel and less resolution
Hello,
First of all let's get past the "no video should be taken in portrait mode."
Whenever I'm recording a video in portrait mode with mt HTC 10, I run into problems when I have to watch it.
I use Google Photos (I've been using it ever since I started using the Nexus 4 and I'm happy with it) and I have backup turned on for all my photos and videos.
The portrait mode recorded videos always show up with the wrong (landscape) orientation.
The same thing happens when I upload the video on YouTube. I've tested this with multiple camera apps and the result is the same.
I've notived the saved video files are .mkv (not .mp4 as they were with my Nexus 5); I don't think that should be an issue, but I just wanted to mention it, maybe it matters.
My second concern is the way pictures taken at night are coming out. I'm attaching one as example. There's so much glare from the light posts that the picture is unusable.
Are there fixes for these or should I contact HTC support and just wait and hope they'll issue a firmware update?
I have the same problem with glare. Take a microfiber cloth or whatever and clean the lens. It seems very sensitive.

Hey people!
I've just flashed the Stock Rom on my Xiaomi Mi6, so I'm currently using MIUI 11 (Android 9). This phone is non-rooted.
I'm having trouble with C6 Bank app (Brazillian bank app), in the face recognition step of login. Instead of utilizing the front camera as expected, it uses the rear camera, and the image is upside down!
I can't turn the phone upside down, because of the gyro, so the image is always upside down. Turning the phone sideways is not an option as well, because the bank app uses the gyro and it recognizes when the phone is sideways and tells me to "keep the phone straight up".
I've tried everything I could think of: Disabling the cameras with an app called Lens Cap (but it can only disable all cameras), plugging an external camera via USB OTG cable (I think it doesn't work because of power issues)... I've tried filming another screen that has my face on through a webcam, but that didn't work out either, because my camera stinks... As far as I've researched, there's no way to disable the gyro, so that's not an option as well. I'm not going as far as opening my phone and physically disable the camera, because I could mess everything up.
Do you have any other idea?
Thank you for your attention!
What's the banking app you have issue with?
Do you have both apps running simultaneously? I ask this because it isn't possible to use the same camera by several apps simultaneously.
"C6 Bank" a Brazillian bank app.
Nope, I don't have any other app open at the moment.
Thank you for your reply.
