Upsidedown images?

The camera in my N95 seems to get confused with which way up it is - sometimes you take an image (with the phone held horizontally) and when you view the image in the gallery later its upsidesdown?

Its not the end of the world since I can flip the image - but its a bit of a pain.

Anyone encountered this before?

Sounds like you are using RotateMe.

Turn it off before using the Camera.

Only happens once in a while, far too rare to be a pain to me.

Yeah, occasionally the auto-rotation doesn't work. For me, images were usually coming out on their side, and I have to confess I've never had one that was upside down. If you switch the phone off and back on again, it should fix it.

To stop this from happening, I've found it helps to keep the phone in the same orientation from when you took the picture, until the "Processing Image" text disappears.

Leong, since you are using V30 I would assume you no longer use RotateMe.

Has it ever happened with the newer firmware? Or are you still using RM because it works better than ASR?

I had a few pictures flip on me and just assumed it was from two pieces of software simultaneously using the accelerometer.

I have had it happen occasionally since then when I forget to shut RM before using the camera but I have never had it happen when RM was not running so I figured my earlier assumption was correct.

I will be taking many photos this week running V30 on both of my N95's, so will update if I have any problems with upside down photos.

Yep, i no longer use rotateme. So far no, it has not happened in the new firmware (but to be fair i have not taken more than 20 images.

RotateMe works better than ASR in terms of configurability, but i find ASR is smoother when rotating screens.
