this problem appears to be unit dependent. on my G1, the camera orientation is always wrong. on the G1 belonging to a colleage, it's correct. this would suggest that if i set rotation, it would fix some phones and break others.
are the G1 hardware camera parameters documented anywhere apart from the source code? log messages indicate that there are many more parameters than the base API allows access to. tx >Did you try using parameters.set("rotation", 90) for the G1? > >On Nov 6, 1:00 am, "Kipling Inscore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> As can be discovered by using the built in camera (no need to look at >> the source code), it always useslandscapemode, even when the >> keyboard is closed and the home screen and most other apps are >>inportraitmode. >> I've tried using CameraPreview inportrait, found the same issue as >> jarkman and apkdev, and decided to see what the built-in camera did, >> which is to simply forcelandscapemode.
