I haven't had an issue. I notice Motorola "Droid" users, especially Droid X, their uploads aren't flipped the proper way.

It looks like the camera only wants to take pictures in landscape mode
cuz like i said the menu always pops up like if the device was in landscape mode. but the buttons/icons on the camera app flip the proper orientation.
Anyone else care to chime in, it seems like its an issue with the galaxy S phones...well i dont want to say its an issue but you get what im saying
EDIT:Just had a friend send me a pic from his fascinate from the vertical position and when it showed up on my phone it was sideways
EDIT2:when picture is sent in landscape mode it displays correctly

I got my replacement Fuze from AT&T and as soon as I did, I flashed WM6.5 on it. And now I noticed that a few things from landscape view are burned in on my screen, and you can only tell when its closed [portrait view]. The very bottom of the screen, just big enough for the left/right soft touch buttons, flashes constantly. And I can see the X for closing a window and the time burned in from when it was in landscape view.
It did this before and went away and now its back. What do I do to fix it? Get it replaced again?
im not sure what actually causes that but i dont think its real screen burn in. ive had it happen and go away. its something weird with tf3d maybe?
Sometimes I have seen 'Action' and 'Camera' burnt in at the bottom in portrait view, but it's not always visible, and don't see it often
Try turning teh screen brightness way down

I have only had this happen once and it was when I had the screen brightness all the way up. I turned the brightness way down and after about 30 minutes the ghost images went away (gradually).
Hope this helps.
Turn the phone off and take the battery out for a couple minutes. Worked for me.
It seems like a software issue to me, because also when I go to landscape view sometimes, the icons are all distorted. Looks like I'll be going back to WM6.1 for a bit, until I can find a stable 6.5.
I use a black background for both my lock screen and home screen. Just this morning I noticed that sometimes after I unlock my screen, or hit the home button and return to my home screen after being in an app, I get artifacts that pop up on my screen for a second or two. Usually on the left hand side.
They arent truly "artifacts", it looks as though its images of the icons on my home screen flashing up on my screen for like 1-2 seconds then dissappearing. I have also seen a little checkerboarding pop up as well
This is sort of hard to explain through text. I guess I'd have to record a video and post it here, but I'm at work and cant do that until later. If anyone knows what im talking about or has had this problem, what did you do to fix it?
Hello all,
I've tried using the Panorama picture function on the galaxy tab 2...but believe it or not am having difficulty in getting to work. Most of the times I try it, I get a "Failed" message. I may not be using the feature correctly...so please let me know if what I am doing is not right haha.
I click on the Panorama feature... then I press the picture button to begin. I'm then slowly moving to the right while staying withing the blue rectangle. After I want to finish, I move a little to the left (after taking the last picture), and press the picture button again.
Where I could be going wrong is in the end (to stop taking shots)... any advice?
Thanks!

That's pretty much what I do except for that little move to the left you finish with. Basically, I just push the button and slowly turn, letting it do it's thing, then when I want to stop, I push the button again. They usually come out pretty good, in fact, usually they're surprisingly good.
Hi,
Recently, while using the WhatsApp i was deleting one mesg.. after deletion, strangely one horizontal black line came up.
Initially i thought its an application issue or might be screen refresh issue.
I rebooted the phone in recovery, cleared cache but it didnt worked.
Then i formatted the SD card, made Phone a factory reset, both from phone settings and from recovery mode... but issue is still there.
I am now clueless... how to remove it.
Any help guys .... how do i remove this black line ???
Do you see this black line
in recovery mode?
during the bootanimation?
on your homescreen?
or just in single apps?
If the line is visible all the time its very likely a hardware issue. LCD panels are usually wired in horizontal lines. So maybe one of this connections is broken...

I saw this line in all the places, start from boot screen showing as GT-I5801, at recovery and all places...
Is it a virus or hw issue..?

Well, this CAN be a virus. But todays malware is more about stealing passwords from your device instead of drawing black lines on your screen. And I don't think it's even possible to draw the black line in recovery and during the GT-I5800 logo.
I'm 99% sure it's a hardware fault. You can take a screenshot with Android and check if the line is in the picture (this would be a GPU issue) or on the exact same place on your device-screen and not in the screenshot (this would be a hardware screen issue).
That's the way these devices show us, they're getting old
Have a nice day :good:

Thanks for providing workaround to find the root cause...
Can you name any tool or method by which i can take a snapshot of screen...?

Doesn't your ROM provide a screenshot utility in the power-menu (pressing power button 2 seconds)?
If not, search the PlayStore for "screenshooter" or similar keywords.
And (just for my own interest :silly, does the screen responds to your finger on the black line. Like when you are scrolling through a list and your finger moves across the black line on the screen, does the screen recognize this as one touch action. Or does it break at this line and start a new touch action right after your finger is on the working part of the screen again?
You can test this by slowly (I mean really slowly) moving a widget on your homescreen over the black line. If the touch input is also broken on the black line, the widget would drop when your finger reach the black line. Else, the touch-part of the screen is working properly (Hope this is somehow understandable :laugh
Woke up today to see that my screen display has somehow shrunk and now I have a black border and my display does not fill up the entire screen panel. All apps get cutoff by this new black border. Is this a setting or something? I looked through the whole phone setting and couldn't find anything that would make this change or reverse it. Please help. I guess another way of saying it is the screen doesnt stretch to fill up the entire panel like it normally should.

Or use terminal emulator type as below

I have attached the pictures. The 3 phone pics show the odd black border or the screen just shrinking in as the corner contours are still there from the edges. The Guardian Tales image is from taking a screen shot using the Power + Vloume Down key combo and takes a picture of the whole screen without the border issue. Its really odd.

I still don't understand your problem, I don't see anything wrong with the picture. And for the screenshot it will be always perfect as those are not related to the display.
If you look at picture 4, bottom right corner, the KONG logo is cutoff, it should look like picture 1. The black border in pictures 2 and 3 shouldnt be there, the homescreen should be fully covering the display and not have that thick of black broder cuase the display shrunk for some reason.
your display is not shrinking, the LCD is failing.

What do you mean failing? Its brand new and not even like 2 months old @[email protected]
Not sure if there is a setting or not, but my phone has been the same way since purchase. The screen does not go right to the end of the bezels. Some apps are cut off in each of the corners, because it seems it's scanning the image to a perfect 90 degree corner, meanwhile the screen itself not a 90 degree corner, but more of a concave corner. Because of this, the app is getting cut off in the corners, not much, but some.
I always assumed it was due to the way OnePlus has its screen and apps not properly scaling to the screen corners. Some apps have black bars on the side and it's not known or shown. Other apps that scale up to full screen in landscape mode, to the edges of the screen, those are the ones that get cut off at the corners.
In your picture, it's the same, that image is being scaled up to full screen in landscape, since the word Kong is in the far bottom right corner, it is cut off when scaled up.
