On the Nexus 7 the gallery auto rotation of photo's is incorrect
i.e. landscape goes portrait and vice versa
They display fine on my Samsung Galaxy SII (source) and in the Google+ Photos from either any PC or the Galaxy SII
Is this a calibration issue? Or is there some other setting?
Cheers

I am having this issue also. A portrait photo with the nexus held in portrait position auto rotates to fit across the screen in landscape view. This happens when auto rotate feature is both enabled and disabled. Any suggestions?
Exactly the same problem here. Photos taken on a Nexus S running Jelly Bean and uploaded via instant upload display in incorrect orientation (always over rotated by 90 degrees) in the Gallery on Nexus 7. They are in the correct orientation when viewed any other way including on the web via Picasa and on the Nexus 7 via 3rd party Picasa viewing apps. I really would prefer to use the stock Gallery app but this is so frustrating.....
Any solutions to this? Exact same issue and it is a real bother
very same problem here
If I take a landscape photo on my SGS II and have it "instant-uploaded", it will appear okay on my Nexus 7. If I take a portrait photo on the SGS2, the photo will appear in the right orientation for app. 0,1 sec, then gets rotated (falsely.) Then, if I email that falsely rotated photo to myself, the photo will appear in the email with correct orientation.
Btw in the Google Plus app both photos have the correct orientation, so it seems to be a Jelly Bean bug, not a Samsung bug.
Solution, anyone?
Same, but different....
I've got pretty much the same problem, but rather than actually rotating the picture so that it is in the wrong orientation, it keeps the correct orientation for portrait photos, but compresses them vertically into the same space that would be used for a landscape photo, thereby distorting the aspect ratio (hope that makes sense!). Same occurrences though, only in gallery, not G+, and only on this device and for portrait oriented photos uploaded via G+ instant upload.
It is driving me insane!
Same thing here except it doesn't do it to all the pics in my instant upload. Only some of them.
It's probably some Android bug as I have the same problem on my SGS2 with CM10 (JB). All photos look ok in the Gallery (although when I exit an opened portrait photo it turns 90 degree to the right in the animation. Very annoying as all portrait photos I post on G+ are wrongly oriented.
Galaxy S3 Same problem
Same problem with my Galaxy S3, i thought i was the only one with this problem, so its a relief to know I'm not the only one, its been months since this thread was created, and its still an ongoing problem, it would be nice to know if a fix is on the works, by the looks of it, it might be a bug with android not samsung, either way has anyone found a work around this?? or heard anything new on the issue
Hello,
Recently I did a clean install of XenonHD 4.2.2 ROM,
I have an issue with the Gallery / Camera,
When I take a picture in portrait mode , then swipe to the left to see the picture on the gallery , It shows in landscape mode so I need to rotate manually,
The Auto Rotate is active on the phone,
Any ideas what could be the reason?
Thanks,
Does that happen with every single photo you take? If you're not holding the phone straight, then it's probably switching orientation, but that's not easily noticable from the camera app if you're just trying to take a quick shot.
Yes , with every picture,
Maybe I need to wipe and re-install the ROM and see what happens,
MY N4 works well with the same ROM , my Bro N4 has this issue,
So we all know the Nexus 4 camera rotates the ENTIRE screen (not just the button orientation) when you go from portrait to landscape. Well, I installed widgetsoid so I can have a custom notification bar widget, a flashlight on the homescreen, and the ability to disable the rotation sensor. Well, on 4.2.2 stock, if the rotation sensor is disabled and you open the camera, the screen won't rotate, but the pictures will be right side up at any orientation!
TL;DR. Disable screen rotation, take a picture. No more screen rotation delay.
I could have sworn it was working before. Here's the problem...
When looking at a specific picture, the screen won't auto rotate, but when I go back to look at the gallery, it does rotate. Anyone else have this problem??
For example, I am looking for a picture in my gallery, I click on it to maximize, it does, but then doesn't rotate. , If I go back, it will rotate. Very frustrating!
Hello.
Does anyone have this issue when gallery cannot be rotated to landscape mode, including image view?
The auto rotate is enabled, all other apps working fine, including camera app. Gallery shows only in portrait and when phone rotated it stays in portrait.
I've tried clear data of the gallery, also cleared all cache from recovery. That didn't help.
Any other ideas before I waste 6 hours of setting up the phone with factory reset?
Thank you.
Found what's causing it: Nova launcher with "Screen orientation" set to "Default" or "Force Portrait".
As soon as I set it to "Auto-rotate" the gallery started rotate as well.
Any ideas for a work around other then allow nova to rotate?
