I'm using camera to show preview. The app is always in portrait mode (landscape mode is disabled). The camera preview is always rotated 90 degrees ccw and I can't change it (neither with setDisplayOrientation nor with p.set("orientation", "portrait" ) and p.set("rotation", 90) ).
Is the preview ALWAYS rotated like this or is it device dependent? If it was always like this in portrait mode, I could just rotate the image afterwards.
I hold my phone in "portrait mode" but the cameraPreview is in mode landscape (i.e. I see something rotated by 90 degrees).
Works fine on many devices LG Optimus Samsung Galaxy S2
Issues for some samsung devices (SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE DUOS)
