This solves the "correctOrientation not rotating / wrong orientation with
Android camera bug"
If flag correctOrientation is set the image is rotated according to
EXIF-data. After this, the original EXIF-data is added back to the image where
the rotation is stil there. Result is that instead of a wrongly rotated image
with EXIF-data to correct you end up with a correctly rotated image with
EXIF-data that tilts the image 90 degrees.
Removing the EXIF completely solves this for me - there should be a more
elegant solution to just remove the "orientation" data from the EXIF to make
this a more general purpose solution.
