If I edit a document/image/etc through screen capture and I receive a phone call all the edits disappear. No joke. Happened to me every time and it's getting very annoying. Obviously this isn't supposed to happen. Anyone know a fix?
Also, if I open a drawing in gmail and then rotate my screen into landscape while working on the drawing... if I rotate back to portrait the drawing disappears and I end up back in gmail. Is this normal?

I'm new to android, I just got this phone this past week. I downloaded GOSmsPro and every time I try to MMS someone a picture taken in portrait mode, it automatically rotates it to landscape? that doesn't seem to happen with the stock app, is there a fix for this? I never usually take pictures in landscape mode and if I use portrait then it will automatically rotate it. Thanks!
Bumo please anyone?
Hey all,
Ever since the ICS themed ROMs, I have noticed that whenever I open the stock camera on my phone, it will be in landscape mode even if I have auto-rotation turned off and have been using my phone in portrait orientation. I had this happen both on UnNamed and now on ICScreweD.
Kind of annoying to have to do the following steps every time I open the camera and realize it's sideways:
Close camera app
Pull down quick settings toolbar
Turn auto-rotation on
Open camera app
Take picture
Close camera app
Turn auto-rotation back off
Write way too many steps in the XDA thread on how to take a picture
I realize I can take the picture sideways and the phone will correct it in the gallery, but this just irks me. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
Leker
What you describe is normal behavior. Sounds like you want an app like Tasker to control when auto-rotate is applied. Or Smart Auto-Rotate. Both can turn it on when camera is launched and turn it back off afterwards. Tasker can do a ton more too.
I have to ask though--only the little icons get rotated in portrait mode. Is it really that annoying?

I have the same issue, did you find a solution ?
The issue is that sometimes turning the phone to landscape orientation causes the viewscreen to black out. Switch back to portrait and it comes back. I can take a picture, I just can't see what I'm taking a picture of.
I have the CM11 camera, CameraZoom, and ProCapture. I think this issue is happening in all of them but I'll have to experiment more if someone thinks it is an app issue. This is frustrating because it is not consistently reproducible - it happens when I'm out somewhere trying to catch a picture! I haven't been able to reproduce it in my kitchen.
Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

My z5 compact rotates portrait pictures to landscape mode when posting then to Facebook, Instagram or Layout. Sharing them from Galleri or directly in the app makes no difference. Rotating a picture in Facebook, and when saved or/and accepted change it reverts back to landscape mode again. Shooting 20 mpx 16.9 in Auto. Tried turning Auto rotate on and off in settings, no change. Running stock. 152. Anyone else with this issue? Feels like a Sony bug as it happens in different apps...
Edit. With Gallery I meant Album app. Have Google Photo syncing my pics and the wrong rotation appears there to, but if I share pictures from Google Photo to Facebook corrections there works. Turning off the sync in Google Photo has no impact on the problem sharing from Album or directly in Facebook....
I have this problem too
Anybody else having that problem?
Yeah, having the same issue, but not every single picture taken exhibits the wrong orientation.
I did notice though that even though the UI elements in the camera rotate properly to portrait, the APP itself is in landscape. You can tell from the way the nav buttons are turned sideways when you swipe up from the bottom.
I've cleared the cache but it hasn't fixed it.
Turning on Auto-Rotate doesn't change anything either.
If any of you have a Sony Forum account, it's probably worth reporting.

Same issue here. Another not so wonderful thing about this camera.
Hi,
I'm having the weirdest issue. At first I didn't believe it because it's my mother in law's tablet, an ASUS K01B TF303K, and she's not the most tech-savvy. But after using it for myself for a couple of days, I have verified I truly have never seen this before. It's like the landscape- and portrait-mode are reversed. However, the screen is correctly upright all the time. It's readable, but the orientation is seen as landscape in portrait and vice versa. Screenshots attached.
It's mostly annoying when using it to read e-mail and when videocalling (couldn't screenshot that though), because the other party in the call does see us turned 90 degrees. As a result, the camera zooms in, so only my nose is visible when videocalling with other parties
Anybody got an explanation, and/or fix?
Try Set Orientation what is attached
Hi,
thanks for your reply. This does not fix my problem. As seen in the screenshots, the orientation itself is correct. However, the orientation-flag (if something like that exists) seems to invert portrait- and landscape-modes. That's why I provided the outlook screenshots:
In vertical, the message overview should not be visible by default. It is, however.
In horizontal, the message overview should be visible by default. As you can see, it isn't.
