[Bug 1541210] Re: Photos are displayed as 90 degree rotated in photo roll

 

Confirming. My old photos (not taken with Ubuntu phone) transferred to
Bq are rotated 90 degrees when viewed in Gallery. And the same in Camera
app's photo roll if they are placed in the com.ubuntu.camera subfolder.

I believe this has not been the case always, but due to some newish
change.

Bq E4.5 on OTA-9.

** Description changed:

  On some devices where the camera is such that the Orientation exif data
  gets written  "Orientation |Right-top", as on Turbo.
  
  The camera app has problems showing the photo in the photo roll. Gallery also has this problem. Other apps will show it normally.
  The camera app view finder shows it as it should.
  
  When taking photo is portrait mode, the photo roll shows it rotated
  wrong.
  
  When taking photo in landscape mode, the photo roll shows it properly.
  
  The "My Photos" scope shows both portrait and landscape taken photos
  properly.

+ This also affects photos transferred from elsewhere to the phone and
+ viewed in Gallery.
