[android-developers] Image captured from my app is rotated by default
Hi All, I tried to capture an image and send it to server in my app. I did that using camera intent. the problem is in my samsung galaxy s4 device the image is rotated -90 degree by default. I read around web that it is a problem with the samsung devices. But what is the best solution to it ? if i rotate the image after capture, it becomes heavy image processing in my app. What is the best approach to resolve this ? in phonegap there is something like correctOrientation = true / false what's its counterpart in native code ? thanks and regards jags -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: how to enforce access to a Service with multiple permissions
I tried again in several ways: permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET/permission within the manifest: did not block binding to the service elsewhere within the service tag: did not build. Although looks strange, so an Android service can require from a 3rd party entity only a single permission? any replies welcomed cheers!

[android-developers] Re: Image captured from my app is rotated by default
This may not be related to your problem, but I believe that there are basically two ways that the orientation of a JPEG photo is determined. One is simply by the way the actual data in the file is laid out; for example, whether it is stored as 1024x768 or 768x1024. The other determinate is an (optional) datum in the file's metadata that specifies camera orientation and indicates the degrees of rotation. So even if a photo's data is stored as 1024x768, if the orientation data is +90, then it is to be displayed rotated to the right in 768x1024 format. The problem that I've found is that not all devices or image processing/display software seems to use the metadata and, making things worse, may not propagate the data when saving a modified image. So I've had photos from my phone that I've had to rotate in image software to make them look right on my PC, but then I'll do something like upload them to Facebook and they're rotated the wrong way! I might be wrong about this, but it's what I've concluded after playing around with various devices and image processing programs.

[android-developers] Re: Image captured from my app is rotated by default
This is expected behavior, and Doug's assumption is right. JPEG images may contain EXIF http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_formatdata blocks that also specify the orientation of the image. On your server you need to read the orientation data and use it to rotate the image into the opposite direction. If your server code is written in PHP you can use the Imagick library and the following functions for determining the orientation and rotating the image respectively:Imagick::getImageOrientation()http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.getimageorientation.php, Imagick::rotateImage()http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.rotateimage.php . If the server software is written in Java you could use a library such as Metadata-Extractor http://code.google.com/p/metadata-extractor/ for reading the orientation and any image processing library of your choice for rotating the image.

[android-developers] Re: Google Play Services adds nearly 10,000 methods!
The latest version and the Google Play Services (4.3) now adds about 2,500 more methods (since 4.2)!! (Adding Google Play Services to your project will add about 14,000 methods to your app) seems to be getting worse and worse! On Friday, February 7, 2014 2:14:50 PM UTC-7, Jeff Campbell wrote: We have an app that depends on a lot of libraries, and recently we wanted to integrate Google Maps into our application. We learned that we would have to add the following dependency to our app: compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:4.1.32' Before adding this dependeny, our app had about a 40k method count. After adding this dependency our method count jumped to about 50k (about 10k methods added to our apk!). And, it seems that with every new version of this dependency it grows more and more (we noticed about a 2k growth in the last update). I know that this dependency contains a LOT of different types of services which include things we don't even use (which all contribute to the 10k method count). I know that I can use Proguard to strip out un-needed methods, but in a development environment this just slows down build time, and can make debugging issues difficult. Could the Google Play Services be divided into seperate aar projects? Example: play-services-core (required by all... assuming that there is some shared code) play-services-maps play-services-games play-services-ads play-services-plus play-services-wallet etc Doing this would reduce the risk of apps hitting the 65k method limit cap (seems crazy that a Google library takes 15% of the 65k limit of any single app) Thanks, Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] how to create map api key for google map v1
Hi Treking, Thanks for the reply. My existing key is not working. While developing the app, I used different machine now in the same code i am making changes in some other machine, after making the changes if i run the app then the map is not getting loaded need to change the map api key it seems. Do we need to create the api key every time if we make changes in different machines? How can i use the existing key now?
