The Diamond has an excellent G-Sensor, and since it has the GPS-Tag feature, I think It can also handle EXIF Tags. But to my surprise, it doesn't set the orientation Tag when taking pictures with the camera.
Are there any tweaks or applications that will introduce this feature? I wasn't able to find any.

i think he means that if you shoot a picture in landscape mode, it will detect it and save the landscape in EXIF, so when you open picture in PC, you will see it in landscape...

Ok, MDA Pro newbie here, as you can see...
On the good old MDA III there was a servicable Photo Album that let you rotate pictures, and view them full screen etc. The "Pictures&Video" on the MDA Pro is wholly inadequate for that, none of them functions seem to be there, unless I missed them all...
Am I right? Is the Album somewhere else where I didn't see it? Should I get a different picture viewer altogether, and if yes, which?
THAAAANKS!
Anyone?
It's called "Pictures and Videos" and is standard with WM5

its gone.
i use resco photo viewer, bit resource hungry, but far more powerful.
...and There is NO Photo Album, Caller ID, & Xbackup on Universal... :wink:
After having used this machine for 3 weeks now I find it really annoying that so many tried and tested things have changed for the worse, this being just the one.
Since you seem to have pictures&video then all you really need to do is learn how to use it again. The pictures&video app (at least on my MDA pro) can do pretty much everything you're looking from it. To rotate a picture, open it, tap menu - edit and on the editor screen tap rotate at the bottom left. To view a picture full screen select it, tap menu - "play slide show", then tap the screen and hit the pause button to stop it from moving on to the next picture. If the slideshow shot is the wrong orentation for you then you can change that in the slide show options (set for portrait mode by default but you can select landscape as the default). You can even crop your pictures in the editor or have it autocorrect for colour and exposure.
XnView
You can also use XnView. it's free and very performant.

like a lot of other people (pobably), I have a number of photos on my storage card. I can browse those photos with the photo viewer which lets me see a thumbnail of each image. Great...except a lot of them are taken in landscape mode and the phone doesn't auto rotate when I turn the phone.
If I view the images using a file explorer, then I have to thumb through the images until I find the one I want (a long process sometimes), but then the pics rotate perfectly when I turn the phone.
This is bloody annoying.
is there a solution somewhere? surely if the phone rotates perfectly well when looking at a file througha a file explorer then looking at a landscape picture in a photo viewer should do the same?? or would that be too much like common sense for HTC to think of?
thanks
ok, since nobody seems to know.
is there an alternative picture viewer that i can get that will give me thumbnails AND autorotate so I can see my landscape pics in landscape mode?

Have you tried any rotations apps like G-Sen, gyrator or FlipIt? You can set HTC Album or Photo viewer to rotate both portarit and landscape.
I swear man... I am lookong for the same thing... Its just toooo annoying!!!
Hope picassa is ported to wm with auto rotate!!

No matter what resolution I set the camero to, the photo's associated with People in the contacts book are always low quality and look prety naf on the touchflo people interface.
Is there any way of sharpening these up or getting a high quality pic to load in the first place
It is a bug. The only way is to associate the picture in your device not Outlook on PC
Thank you.
I thought that's what I had done. I edited the contact on the device and inserted a picture I took with the phone.
Is there something else I should have done?
try going into camera tab and the album bottom left select the photo you want and select preferences it will give you an option to add to contact this works for me
weird that works. If I assign the photo from the album the picture is crisp, but if I assign it from the address book its blurred.
Thank you.

Hi guys,do you feel Resco Photo Viewer v6.33 is actually much better than its newer version Resco Photo Viewer v7.0 or higher?
Of course Resco Photo Viewer v7.0 is more finger friendly,but I can tell you it is very bad when it comes to picture control (zoom,move).
In Photo Viewer v6.33,you can zoom any rate (25%,50%,100% etc) you like with very quick and precise manner. Without doubt,50% and 100% are most often used zoom rate. therefore buttons for 50% and 100% are very useful which enable us to zoom the picture at our desired size quickly.
And you can close the zoom tool any time you like.
While in newer version,Photo Viewer v7.0 or higher, you basically move the vertical bar to zoom in and out,it is very difficult to get the desired zoom quickly. and this zoom bar and other buttons cannot be closed any time we like, you have to wait for them to automatically disappear,I find this annoying.
OK,it does has one cliche feature which every other photo viewer has: double click to enlarge (you can set 100% default), another double click to go back to small size.
Well,this feature looks cool,but in practice,it is actually very frustrating for users.
Ok,let's say,I double click the picture to make it 100% size,now when I try to move the picture,it will accidentally double click,which brings the picture to small size,then I double click again to enlarge,finally I move the picture to the postion I want to see, as you can expect,I accidentally double click again, it is small again, god damn,ok,let's double click again to make it back,but I need to move AGAIN the picture to the position I desperately try to see,but I accidently double click again......
The result is that it takes long time to get the right position,if you want to move picture constantly,it is very very frustrating. Come on,no more double click to zoom, if this feature is workable, we would have already used other many free viewers instead of Resco which is not free.
Another bad about Photo Viewer v7.0 is that,the movement of picture is not as steady(stable,solid) as v6.33,it's like the picture is on the air,when you move it a little with your finger,it will still slide away. this is very bad when it comes to viewing a photo. we need it steady, not slippy.
I would recommend to devolop photo viewer based on build v6.33,for example,if you can make thumbnails scrollable by finger-touching the screen, it will be the almost most perfect photo viewer.
I apologise for asking a question that appears to have been asked alot, but I have been unable to find a definitive answer for my query after searching through the forums.
As I'm sure some of you have discovered with some landscape cabs, it can screw up the wonderous features of music and photo screens. So what I am looking for is a landscape cab that only manipulates the homescreen itself.
The closest thing I found was the Elegance Theme which unfortuantely forced me to hard reset my unit.
Does such a cab exist?
Cheers
I'm interested too because my previous device (HTC TP2) was able to show the homescreen in landscape modus.
Well i've managed to fudge the dialler to go landscape when handset is rotated.
But if handset is already in landscape position and i open the dialler it goes portrait and i have to move handset to portrait and back to get landscape view.
Rather frustrating when i'm driving!
Can anyone please shine any light on the homescreen issue or indeed how to get the dialler to open in landscape view when handset is in landscape position?
Update: For some reason dialler now recognises landscape view and opens in right orientation (having not changed a thing).

4th file down on first post.
Thanks for you post MalekoUk, however as stated in the 1st post of this thread there are cabs out there that screw the features of the photo album and music screens, and your suggestion is one of them.
to fix the music and image tabs after installing your landscape cab
edit reg:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila
EnableFullscreen from 0 to 1
then with BsB tweaks (menu/Rotation) remove SENSE-manila
then you can use change screen the make manila rotate the other way so left for normal music player and rotate right for the tweaked way
thats what i do
ok i just worked out that you dont have to install a cab all you have to do is
make a string reg in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila called EnableLandscape and set it to true and you have landscape that easy
splder. ur trick didnt work for me
