When I attach a picture that I took in portrait mode to an SMS it gets turned sideways. In other words, pictures always get attached in landscape mode. Is there any way to change that?

I don't like this either.
The fix is to crop photo, after taking your shot, then delete the original to alleviate any confusion, and after that lengthy process, you can now post to MMS, or Facebook, correctly. I would hope to see an easier fix, but this works for now.

ya what the heck? I just noticed this. I don't recall ever having this problem on my N1... did I just never upload images???
Rotate doesn't even help! One of the nicest things about android is the easy of sharing photos to multiple places QUICKLY from the regular OS apps and this completely defeats the purpose. It's not just SMS it's sending to Facebook and other sharing as well.
HAVE to CROP the picture to get it to upload properly?
Don't recall ever having to do that either... /mad

its an issue with all SGS phones
Only way I've fixed it is to actually crop the picture in the gallery. Then they stand up straight.

I use this camera for photosphere:

and this camera for everything else:

I have never been able to find a working photosphere camera that doesn't freeze when taking a normal picture without touch to focusing first. It's really too bad. I'd pay a few bucks for that photosphere on a camera app that I didn't have to worry about re-flashing everytime I forget to touch to focus first. IT isn't a horrible workaround, but I almost always tend to forget, or hesitate too long after I focus and end up having to flash a .zip again and reboot before I can take a picture. It has caused me to miss way too many great pictures so I gave up some time ago. If anyone comes across one without this bug, please pm me. I'll gladly donate for it.
Tried to look for this in forums but didnt find it so made this topic
Well the problem is the camera doesnt really start taking panorama until it comes to a brighter part of the room and also after very careful movement the panorama stitched is very stretched or so ? And most of the times even after the panorama is completed it just doesnt stitch it.. It goes aways like i didnt take any photos at all
Tried restoring to factory setting and stuff many times still no use.
Ill post a youtube link sorry for ut quality coz recorded from the old iphone 3gs so anyways ull knw whats the problem
"So i cant post outside links as im new..so do me a favour and search for (nexus 5 panorama problems) on youtube and you will find it" PLEASE HELP!

I keep getting a message about duo camera lenses being blocked. Does not happen in portrait mood but always in landscape mode it happens while I hold the phone by the very edges. I am inside my house could it be that there is not enough light?

Could there be dust or a fingerprint on one/both of the lenses?
Also if you're using a case, make sure that it isn't covering either lens as well.
No case and I don't see anything on the lens. I guess it's just mine. Contacted HTC and they said it's an app interfering with the camera because when they had me boot the phone into safe mode, the problem does not occur. I don't have anything downloaded that's camera related.

By any chance does that happen when you block the sensor next to the front camera?
Idk why would that matter taking a picture with the rear camera?

Update***
The issue has not been happening lately. I didn't change anything. Anyway I didn't really buy the phone for the camera.

If anyone can figure out what app may be interfering, I'd be curious to know as I'm getting this error also. I also don't have any camera apps.
I can cause the message to pop up in auto mode by getting the lens close enough to something where the top lens doesn't see the same thing as the main lens but I'm guessing you weren't very close to anything since you were in landscape mode.

This. I've noticed myself when taking a picture and something is closer to the left side in landscape mode.
The whole reason behind this camera structure is for depth. That is why 1 lens is slightly recessed to the other. Its provides better distinction making it similar to the human eye. Yes, one eye is slightly recessed to the other, allowing this to occur. We are smarter and faster at processing that information better than the phone can, so essentially, if something appears closer to the left lens, it will error out.
Fix, cover both lenses, move camera, uncover.

Duo Camera Blocked
I am also having this issue. My original M8 camera worked fine but I swapped it due to an unrelated issue. Now, whenever I load the camera app, it says "Duo Camera Blocked". Obviously there is nothing in the way and I have no third party camera apps installed. In fact I have the exact same setup as the previous phone which didn't have an issue.
I'm starting to think that this is a hardware issue and will need replacing. Is anyone else seeing this problem?
duo camera is blocked
First sorry for my bad english,
I got the same problem..When i open my camera app it says '' Duo camera is blocked blabalblaa '' even i ddnt cover the duo camera with my fingers..I sent it to Technical service to change with new one and im still waiting the results from service..And i think this problem will be a chronical problem like what happen to m7 ( pink camera ) last year..
This duo camera's on HTC One M8 GPe, right?

Yes my friend
Anyone help it ?
I just got my M8 today, played with it for a couple of hours before unlocking the bootloader. Restored titanium backup after unlocking, everything was fine until I opened the camera. I also keep getting the "duo camera blocked" warning, I tried taking pictures for an hour straight but the warning persists and I can't use U-focus or any other duo feature on every picture I take.
I'm on stock ROM and recovery and unrooted. Tried to restoring factory settings, no success. Just updated to the newest firmware (1.54.401.10) via OTA but still no working duo camera.
Should I sent it back for repairs (with relocked bootloader) or has someone found a solution for this problem?
Hey I started the thread, but I can not explain how my issue as just gone away. But I think I stated I don't use the camera that much but have recently been using it without issue. Strange. When in doubt I would just exchange if that's an option for you.

I know this is probably very obvious, but make sure your finger isn't covering the Duo camera at all. I've had that message a couple times and it was due to my finger blocking it. You won't see it on the screen.
I'm definitely not blocking the second camera. I tried taking pictures in portrait and landscape, inside and outside, with every possible grip, there is no dirt or dust on the lenses, it just doesn't work..
I just got on the phone with customer support, they advised me to sent it back for repairs.
After calling I just noticed something that might explain what's wrong with my phone. If I look very closely at the second camera lens, it seems like it's tilted sideways a couple degrees. I attached a photo taken through a mirror (I don't have another camera at the moment). Can someone confirm that it's not supposed to be this way?
Its hard to tell in the pic, but to me it looks like the Duo is aimed slightly up. Try taking the pic a bit farther back from the mirror and without the case. Also I've found it's very sensitive to fingerprints causing slightly blurry photos, and you have one on the main lens. See if you can get a slightly clearer one.
Here's a better picture, taken with another camera. I drew a red square to show how the lens appears to be tilted.
I'm sending the phone back for repairs tomorrow, I hope they don't make a big deal of the bootloader being re-locked.
