[Q] Camera auto-rotating some pictures, how do i fix it? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Using stock android on my Galaxy Note 3, the camera app is rotating pictures that i do not want it to.
The best example i can give is the following:
The two pictures here are screenshots of them in the gallery. They are the exact same picture, one taken a little bit closer to the page than the other one, yet one of them was rotated in landscape mode.
Picture 1 is how i want the pictures to turn out (fill the screen)
Picture 2 is how i do not want them to turn up (so much black on the screen)
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Dion.

I probably should have said i tried with auto rotate off and auto rotate on.
It makes no difference, it seems like the camera does it at random.

Perhaps using a different camera app? Camera FV-5 is a daily driver for me.

Rotated pics

Whenever I take a picture it comes out rotated, its really annoying and I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem and if anyone knows how to fix it :-(
Can you expand on your problem please? Which way are you holding your phone? Which way is the picture rotated?

I take pics in Potrait mode and its rotated to the right. it doesn't seem to happen when I take pics in landscape mode.

why are all of my camera pictures come out rotated 90 degrees?

so here's an interesting thing that I noticed.. all of my pictures are rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise. Everything shows up on the phone (in the gallery app) and in google+ correctly (which is why it took me a while to realize this issue), but when I look at the actual jpgs, they are all rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise. Have you guys seen this before? How do I fix it?
original camera app?
auto screen orientation turned on?
original camera app (one built in to the n7100), screen orientation turned off. I prefer to use portrait mode for pictures.. and the pictures are always 90 degrees to the "right". what's funny is that picasa shows the pictures correctly. but windows photo viewer isn't, and file preview in windows isn't. when i export them to a non google service (such as QQ, a popular chinese instant messaging app), it's also showing up as rotated.
any ideas?

if u turn off the auto screen orientation, how can the note2 knows you want portrait or landscape.......
it's strange but google+, picasa somehow figures it out correctly.. *shrug* i'll try w/ the auto screen orientation on and see if that does it.

I thought this was a bug in android I found most of my pictures come out the correct way round as in the way I took them but occasionally the odd one will be rotated 90 degrees. This also used to happen with my note 1.

if you go in to the original stock camera app, if you click the cog on the top left, scroll down, there's a setting which says 'save as flipped'
if you click it, it should stop that from happening.
I always thought that was for the front camera

This option is disabled for me on my camera when I have the phone in landscape... And my photos are still flipped.

Video Orientation issue

Hi guys
I have searched and not seen this issue much and no fixes for it.
I recently shot some video with my S4, when I try and play it back the orientation is flipped. I shot the video in landscape but when I play it back, it flips it portrait so you kinda have to tilt your head to watch it.
Has anybody come across this before, better yet, anybody know how to remedy this?? It's driving me nuts.
By the way, phone is still standard, not yet even rooted.
Thanks for any suggestions...
Which application are you using to play your recorded videos?
Have you switched on auto Screen Rotation?
If i switched off Screen Rotation, the recoded videos(landscape) plays back in portrait on stock video player. You can turn the video to landscape by pressing the rotate icon on top right hand corner of the app.
If i have Screen Rotation on, the video app will automatically start in landscape mode.

I'm using the std video app, I have now turned off auto rotation and I can indeed switch to landscape. Any idea why it records in the wrong orientation in the first place, maybe auto rotation enabled is the cause??
Thanks for your help mate.
Its recorded wrong in the first place because Auto Rotation was off. Switch on auto rotation before recording.

I only see the HDR option in the top right corner. Can you send me a screenshot?
I thought you meant the front facing camera mate I didn't know there was beautification mode on the portrait mode
Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk
It's one package with portrait mode so there is no option for that im afraid
Annoyed with the beautification in portrait
Give a feedback to xioami about the irritating beautification in portrait mode through their feedback app. We can only hope xioami to add a feature in the camera app to turn off the beautification in portrait mode.:crying:

Haven't you seen the stock camera on 8.1? The beauty mode can be adjusted or turned off completely in the front facing camera. That function was always there for the rear camera.
Turning it off
I found out if you select just the normal camera and turn AI mode off then the beauty filter goes away
(edit)
It did not turn off i just had worse lighting
