I'm not sure if this is happening to others' S6s.
When I send images through hangouts, whether it's from my GV# or cell#, it sends out the images but it's rotating it 90 or 180 degrees. So if I take a picture on portrait mode, it'll rotate it side ways. And if I take a picture landscape, then it'll send it out up side down. However, it's fine when receiving pictures.
I figured that it's Hangouts because I used the stock messaging app, then it works fine. Weird thing is my other phones doesn't do this with Hangouts. only the S6 Edge.

Pictures or videos I take are not automatically rotated. If I attempt to share something on twitter taken in portrait it is always 90 degrees to the left. Videos are the same way when viewed on the computer. I'm running froyo and thought this functionality existed in eclair? Does anyone have a fix or does this bother anyone else?
In you're notification drop down bar, the toggle is there for auto rotation

Pictures and video when viewed on the phone are always in the correct orientation. It's only when I try and share pictures and video that the orientation is wrong.
Pictures and video are never in the correct orientation when trying to share them. Whether it is via twitter or MMS, they are always rotated incorrectly. Videos which are taken in portrait and imported to the computer are always played back titled in landscape unless I rotate and re-encode, them which is a giant pain in the ass and leads me to believe the phone isnt correctly saving the rotational EXIF data. My iphone 3g did this stuff automatically, it should be a basic feature.
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?
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.
I've noticed that I am unable to rotate the panorama feature to landscape mode... I have never had a phone unable to change the orientation of the panorama snapshot feature.
Try to replicate it like this: Rotate your phones orientation 180*, the camera buttons should rotate correctly. Now if you have the same issue as I, the panorama bar should stay in a vertical position.
They come out like crap if I take the panorama shot vertically, its center pivot point screws up the image versus it being in landscape mode to get a wider shot.
Anyone else experience this?
Auto-Brightness, FFC low light issues, and this issue are all making me decide against this phone.
Mine works fine.
Here's what it looks like. Portrait mode vs landscape mode. Pay attention to the camera buttons to distinguish between them.
Really weird bug.
When you first use the camera in Panorama mode, the phone flashes up a message saying you have to use the phone in portrait.
So it's not a bug, it's an intentional thing by LG. Why they do it is probably Reasons.
I've reflashed, reinstalled, and re-setup my phones so many times over the years. Must have glossed over the pop up at one point.

In landscape mode?
I'm using the h860 version and I also noticed this and I didn't read the pop up message that I can only use the panorama in portrait mode. That's fine with me, it can still produce the best panorama I've ever seen....
LG G6 Panorama
Yes. Why on earth did L.G. spoil a magnificent phone with this lack of thought. Not being able to take panoramas in landscape mode defeats the whole object of using the feature.
This and the discontinuance of the home screen instant call icons were a very bad change in the new phone that would otherwise have been close to perfect.
Also why did they discontinue the use of the colour changing L.E.D. on the new version.
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.
