I tried to upload on Facebook a picture taken with my Nexus S but it seems that, when uploaded it has the wrong orientation (always horizontal, even if the pictutre has been taken vertically). Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Anyway to fix it?

There have been a couple threads on this including one i made, as of now there is no way to fix it. before you say the NS is a peice of crap, all SGS phones do it.
If you hold the phone in portrait mode and hit the menu button the menu comes up in landscape mode. the SGS phones only like it sideways
I'm glad im not the only one. Apparently this isnt just with FB but with any form of picture transfer when taken in portrait?
I hope theres a fix for this, I love this phone but that's annoying!

Ya, it does the same thing if you send an MMS
sucks that it has this problem, that annoyed me like crazy when i had a vibrant, my mt4g doesnt do this, just make sure to take all pics like a normal camera and you will be okay
It's a easy fix turn off and on your phone that's how I fix that issue

Oh hell I thought it was a simple Nexus S issue but you guys say it happens on all Galaxy S phones
Well I hope that Google can at least correct it on the Nexus S with an update since it seems after 6 months Samsung hasn't. This is the one thing that is bugging the **** out of me with this phone.

Not really. Got the update tonight but nothing changed. I love my Nexus S but this is really pissing me off... Can't believe that Samsung has not fixed it yet.
@Eliteranger12 torn on and off ??? I did it several times but nothing changed

i just found that launcher in 3.2 is now as smooth s butter when running at potrait mode. browser speed is also increased slightly. great news to xoom owners
Yeap, in portrait is working really smooth now, I did not use the browser jet... hahahaha
Just one thing, when you change from portrait to landscape or otherwise it still takes some time to adapt, a few seconds but after that... it goes really smooth....
I did tried some mkv files, but they did not work fine for me... I have seen other users that tried them and work fine for them.. I do not know why...
What about upside down? It used to lag badly upside down.

Its typically on desktop during screen rotation. I know I'm not the only one whose experienced it, I've seen it mentioned a few times before. Its really odd because being upside down should be no different, at least I assume.

You're definitely not the only one. It was a known issue. Happy to say it's fixed now. Though there's a part of me that still wonders how an issue like that ever made it into a major release in the first place.
i think it turns ALOT faster now. Like, I dont mind turning it because it barely takes time anymore.

Good to hear, and you and me both wonder that, not only an official release but multiples, from 3.0 through 3.1.

Thanks for reporting this. It was the only thing I was scanning all the 3.2 posts for, and no one else had chimed in on the matter quite yet.

It was explained at Google I/O I think. Basically Tegra 2 couldn't handle rotation, so they were forced to do it in software. They've probably come up with some clever tricks to optimize things since then, thus the boost in performance.
i still get lag in launcher at portrait mode. not as bad as before, but still lagging.
On the other hand, its very smooth upside down.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
yeah now that I've installed 3.2 I don't see much of a difference at all. Still too laggy for me.
how about trying few times of reboot? cause mine really as smooth as butter now.. removed adw too
Well I just recently made the jump to Gingerbread and was really enjoying the little perk of the CRT screen animation.
Just lately though, I noticed that it had disappeared.
As well, I've been noticing that my phone does not automatically turn off when I put it up to my ear.
My first 4.5.91 flash I feel that I botched:
I had flashed Nottach's Darkside ROM (v1.3) and his Evoluer theme (v1.0) and I was trying to set up some of Droid Shogun's SwitchPro widgets and messed with a screen auto-off widget. I thought this was what caused the problem in the first flash and I eventually ended up wiping my phone (much deeper than I kinda planned, too).
I reflashed Darkside and Evoluer again and the problem reappeared. Though I remember testing the CRT & auto-off before I flashed the theme.
I just now flashed Nottach's uninstaller (found in the Evoluer thread) and it brought me back to the stock AT&T theme (no Darkside theming), but that did not solve the problem either (bring back CRT & auto off).
I'm asking a couple of questions here:
1) Is this a known problem? The animation and or Auto-off disappearing for some reason, whether it's theme flashing, flashing that particular theme (Evoluer), or something else (kernel problem, etc...)?
2) Is there something I could have done that is easily reversible (something I ticked/unticked in settings?). I will also add that I always do a little Spare Parts tinkering when first setting up my phone. Could that have altered anything?
3) What are my solutions? I could always reflash, but that is a true PITA. Help, please?
Thanks for any advice or input you guys have to offer. Also, please let me know if there's anything more I can divulge that would help in your diagnosis.
At this point,
In spare parts you most likely ticked faster window animations....put that to normal and crt anim should be back....uh not sure bout your proximity problem.

Me too bro.
Just out of curiosity, you didn't run into any other problem with spare parts, did you? I'm just kind of at a loss as to how it messed with the screen proximity off and want to make sure there aren't any other seemingly unrelated things it could break.
Also, where did you get yours? Is the Market version still being updated? I just want to make sure mine is up to date.

I'm using kens Alien ROM, its pre loaded. And no not really any problems. I Use it for compatibility mode and faster transitions, other than that I don't open it at all. I don't remember it messing with the sensor like that, I might have not noticed tho I didn't leave the fast window animations on for very long, but not so sure why it would bug out like that. Spare Parts shouldn't cause any other problems tho.

Awesome. Thanks for clearing that up.
Does anyone else have this problem with their nexus 7? I just got my nexus 7 today but I noticed that the backlight seems to flicker randomly
It doesn't look like much in the video but it is very noticeable and gets annoying when you're reading an ebook like i was.. Here's a video showing the problem.(It's near the end)
VIDEO LINK: h**p://db.tt/28eD0NLk (It happens around 9 second in) (change ** into tt)
For whatever reason this forum would not post a video link to show the problem.. for those who wants to know what it looks like please PM me..
But basically the screen flickers randomly ..
Is this a software problem? Should I go back and get it exchanged?
I don't see a video

Mine flickers no matter which app I use..even on home screen it flickers..
Also this forum has the most ridiculousspam prevention method..5 mins between posts + no link ? WTF
Its because you are new, we get a lot of trolls
Does increasing your brightness help?

I've had a similar problem as well. It seemed to happen to me on auto-brightness when it was changing the brightness level. I can't say for sure though, just my observation.

I havn't tried it yet..do we know if it's a hardware problem or software?
I just got it today so I can still return it if it turns out to be hardware
We really dunno at this point, but we are speculating software since both HTC One X and TF300 had similar problems and were fixed with firmware updates. Also someone switched it three times and all of them had this issue. Also try to run the screen in a pitch black room and tell me if the screen flicker is there. I may have a theory but need some other people to see if their units are behaving the same way as mine.
You can still post the link when you alter it a bit, insert a few *** into it, for example.
I turned mine on as soon as I got hold of it, no flicker, managed to go through and set up things, powered off and left to charged.
Coming back to it the screen would appear to turn on and off randomly, I thought it could be an app controlling a proximity sensor (I have one on my phone and I was EXTREMELY tired!), when I took it into the light there was no change.
I found that shaking it would help it flicker on and off at all intervals but didn't fix it. In the end I just started pushing random areas on the back, just before the issue went away I pressed around the bottom left quarter of mine and haven't had an issue since!
Glad I wasn't the only one with the problem though and would love to actually find out what it was.
Hope this helps!

Try this video,
h**p://dl.dropbox.com/u/13153603/Videos/VID_20120715_100253.mp4
it is using google map and you can see the constant flickering.. It doesn't look very severe in the video but it is actually very noticeable and annoying
I have the same issue with mine. It only seems noticeable when I have the brightness set to the lowest setting and on a page that is predominately white. I don't think it's the proximity sensor though, because it happens both when I set it manually to the lowest setting and when I'm in the dark and the tablet sets the brightness all the way down itself. Hope the next update fixed this, because it's really annoying!

I first noticed this flicker in a darkened room, so yes, it is definitely something going on. I'll try disabling auto-brightness to see if that matters.
If anyone else has info about this, please share!

I can attest that the flicker is ever present in a pitch black room as well.
Like this?
There are a few videos on youtube, but i cant post links but if you do a search you can find it
I noticed a flickering in chrome yesterday. But only in chrome and only while the page is rendering after it fully renders no more flickering.
Everyone turn off wifi and I guarantee it will go away. It happens when using wifi which makes it hard to believe that a software update can fix it.
My fiance bought one of these for us, and she said shes noticed the longer its used the pseakers go bassy and fuzzy. only corrected with a restart. ive searched and cant seem to see a mention of it
anyone had this issue

Yes, I've had this as well.
I don't know what causes it, but during a film, about an hour in, it started going fuzzy, as if someone added a "static" track in there. It becomes all static-y...
It's resolved by rebooting.
Anyone have insight on this?

A ROM bug maybe?
No, I have stock and the same problem after a long gaming session. Closing and re-open the app sometimes works, but sometimes indeed only a restart works.

If rebooting fixes it, it sounds like it may be a software issue. Have you tried doing a factory reset?
Mine has done something similar a few times, only while playing Adventure Express. I assumed its just a bug with that game, but it affects all audio running on the tablet until I clear the game from Recents. Stock 5.0.1 rooted
Sounds like your devices are haunted
Anyway, never experienced anything like it
I get playback issues with the Comedy central app that are fixed by a restart I have a feeling it has to do with some of the lollipop memory leaks.
I have had no issues yet but for this to be a HTC tablet I would think it would have better sound like on the M7 and M8. Still sounds good and love the speakers on the front

I've had it happen straight out of the box. Then a couple time times later on, completely stock. Have yet to experience this on SimpleAOSP, but I'm sure the bug is still present, just haven't noticed it yet.
Edit: This is not a speaker issue, but more a software issue. It happens with headphones as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...e-sound-using-earphones-t3032098#post58898735
Reboot
I have experienced it one time only. A reboot fixed it. It looks like a SW/driver issue to me. Not a huge problem, but taking the price of the Nexus 9 into consideration, it would be nice to have it fixed
