I've found that every time I try to send a photo (from my gallery) with a text message, the photo displays upside down. I thought maybe it just showed that way on my phone, but I verified it on a friend's phone today - the photo they received from me was upside down.

Any way to fix this?

Are you left handed? Did you take the picture upside down? Lol.

That's too funny. I guess I am kind of ambidextrous w/ some things, but mostly right handed. With the way that everything for the camera auto-rotates (even w/ auto rotate screen off), it never occurred to me that I might be holding it the "wrong way" when shooting horizontal photos. I thought your comment was just being a smarta**, but it helped fix the problem Thnx!

I'm actually having similar issues. I take photos with the phone upright and the photos display upright in my gallery. Then as soon as I try to send a SMS to someone and insert the picture it puts the photo sideways to send to them and there is no way to adjust it! Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same problem sometimes and have not figured out a way to fix it.

Same problem here, take a photo in portrait, looks fine in the gallery then once I send it via MMS it switches orientation to landscape and there's no way to control it.

except it's correct in the gallery.


Tried with goSMS and stock... it does not happen to every single picture. It happened to my mom's the other day and I was so confused.

no, the phone was not upside down. Even if it was, wouldn't the gallery pic reflect that based on the accelerometer?
