As stated....
I take a picture in portrait mode....click the little button to view the picture i took (inside the camera app) and it saves the picture sideways in landscape mode.
But, when i go to the Gallery app to view the picture, it displays correctly in portrait mode. So if i try to upload to facebook or send as an MMS, it turns the picture back to Landscape mode and sends like that, even though it displayed correctly in the Gallery. Even if i try to save the photo with it rotated incorrectly (thinking that it would turn the correct way when i sent it or uploaded it) it still shows up incorrectly.
The only fix i have found is to go to Gallery, view the photo, crop the photo (you don't actually have to crop anything, just select the whole picture) with it in the correct orientation and it will save a new pic in the correct orientation.
Come on, there has to be a fix for why it saves the picture incorrectly. I shouldn't have to make a full picture crop everytime i want to upload a pic or send it via MMS.
bump....
is this a common topic or what??
Use vignette to take photos and justpictures as gallery replacement set resolution to high in just pictures...this will keep photos sharper when zooming and cropping. The stock gallery app plain stinks
Swyped.....you may have to interpret
I've noticed the color of the thumbnails in the stock Samsung gallery app differ when they're actually enlarged. Anyone else notice this? It doesn't happen with third party gallery apps, but I'd prefer to keep the stock gallery app simply because it plays back the slomo video. If you haven't noticed, check it out. Watch the vibrant reds/blues slightly shift to a lighter red/blue.
Now, I've experimented with this, and noticed it does this when the "Adaptive display" setting is left on. However, leaving it on and testing this out with a third party gallery app, it worked perfectly. The display adapted and the colors matched. Of course the color will be the same once enlarged so as long as you change the display's screen mode to "AMOLED photo". However, I'd prefer the adaptive setting because I don't like the warmer white tones when using my phone for everything else besides photo editing.
Leaving it on "Adaptive display", the software should know when I am actually opening a photo and adjust the colors so they're accurate. But now I'm thinking that there's a glitch with the stock gallery. The adaptive display setting is working fine with third party gallery apps, just not that stock gallery app. Which is sorta ironic....
Thoughts?
I noticed that too, doesnt really bother me.
What does bother me is how there is no "Capture" feature anymore what playing back a video and how trimming videos takes a ridiculous amount of time all while not being able to retain 4K resolution. My Note 4 trimmed 4K videos in seconds and kept the resolution.
Perhaps I'm doing it wrong, but I just can't get the panorama mode to work properly with the S10+.
I have 2 major gripes with it:
The panorama doesn't go all the way around, so I don't get a full 360 degree panoramic photo
The photos always come out distorted/stretched when viewed elsewhere
With issue one, it only seems to take about 350 degrees, so I end up with a stitch that doesn't quite work out when I view the photo later. Apps like Google Photos helpfully turn these types of images into something similar to being there and rotating on the spot but because the phone doesn't seem to take a full photo this doesn't work properly.
On issue two, when viewing the photos in Google Photos or even Facebook, they try to make these images into a photosphere type image, so 360 degrees along the X and Y axis. The trouble is, even though these photos are taken with the wide angle camera, it stretches the image upwards and distorts it to get that 360 view. LG wide angle cameras (at least on the G6 which is the last one I owned) add about 10 degrees to the top and the bottom of a pano photo using AI to match the colours at the top and bottom (e.g. extra blue at the top for sky). This results in a blurry patch at the top and bottom of the photosphere, but also prevents the main part of the image being distorted.
Its a shame about both of these "features" as otherwise I'm pretty happy with the camera, but having distorted panoramas is not great.
Hi guys,
To my surprise, my brand new P30 Pro camera's app doesn't come with 16:9 aspect ratio resolution which is a shame...
My old Mate 10 Pro had it and I can't see myself watching my picutres with those 2 white squares on the left and right of my pictures...
Let me link you an official thread about this issue: https://uk.community.huawei.com/mate-20-series-20/who-would-like-the-option-to-take-16-9-aspect-ratio-photos-with-your-huawei-phone-1520
For me, it's a bummer...
If any of you is able to "mod" the app to get back that 16:9 aspect ratio with high resolution, please advise ! Or any kind of contact to Huawei cuz this doesn't look THAT complicated to add back..
Regards
Yea, that would be awesome to have this. A phone this expensive doesn't have this crucial aspect ratio? How come? Don't people watch photos on tvs or monitors? 16:9 should be the standard for casual photographers.
It still has a full screen photo mode, but you have to lower the photo megapixels from 10 megapixels to (full screen) 6

Full screen is 19.5:6 aspect ratio, which is far too wide. The point is to view the photos on TV or monitor in full screen. This aspect ratio is rather useless, it crops too much. The camera is nice, but if I knew it doesn't have 16:9, I'm not sure if I would buy this phone. Now it's too late, already bought, and I'll have to spend a lot of time to crop thousands of photos I'm doing on my trips.
Also the default gallery application in which I can crop the photos has a bug - if I do a 4:3 photo in 40 megapixels and crop it to 16:9 in the default gallery application, it changes the photo resolution to 3648x2050 from 7296x5472, so I need to use some external app for that.
So if anyone is reading this:
DO NOT CROP THE PHOTOS WITH DEFAULT APPLICATION

Use Google photos app:
7296x5472--->7296x4102
40mp--->29,9mp

if you mean this one:
getdroidtips.com/download-google-camera-for-huawei-p30-pro/
I tried it. Sure it makes the photos, but it has lots of issues:
1. Camera switching doesn't work, I can only use the main camera. No wideangle, no tele
2. After zooming in the app crashes
3. Max mp I can get in 16:9 mode is 8.3, not 29.9
4. No portrait mode and lots of other modes from stock application are also missing.
So sure, I can do photos with 16:9, but what's the point if I can't use most of options that hardware provides? Cropping for hours or days after making thousands of photos is still the only option here.
There is not good solution, which is really sad.
And if you mean an app for cropping, I already found a better one - Simple Gallery and PicTools for cropping in bulk.
News about this topic? I have just faxed
Faced this on my Huawei and I feel really frustrated!

I have 16:9 mode enabled, but viewfinder (i.e. the screen) has this big semitransparent black area on the right that makes it difficult to visualize what's in the picture. The shutter and some options are on this big black stripe. But it is really getting in the way.
In 4:3 mode the stripe becomes solid and everything is ok, but in 16:9 part of the photo is actually behind that stripe which really makes it hard to take good pics.
Any solution or workaround? Do most people take 16:9 pictures these days?
I try take 16:9 it's look zoom in on camera app but after take photo it's look normal
