Camera starts in landscape - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Newbie here,
My camera app(stock) always starts in landscape no matter orientation of screen. Sometimes I have to shake the device to get portrait if it does not rotate by itself. Accelerometer appears to be fine because every other app behaves correctly.
Also video recorder stays in landscape only.
I have the problem since v.11.0.A.4.16. Upgrade to 11.0.A.4.27 didn't help.
Help please...

Under #System prop for using landscape preview layout in camera
I changed debug.camera.landscape=true to debug.camera.landscape=false
Rebooted. Didn't work.
:crying:

What about forcing it to be portrait all the time? Use xposed app settings.

Chrome-browser brighter than Internet-browser

Why are some apps brighter than others?
When i set the brightness completely down I noticed it with chrome and internet browser but i think other apps act equal.

The bright is changing automatically, i believe.

But the "auto" checkbox is unchecked.
Is this something i have to live with or are there settings or apps wich could fix it?

have you tried other web browsers?
There is an app "screen filter" from play store. To reduce the screen brightness. Ya. Chrome is a lot brighter. it doesn't even have the inverted mode that stock browser has! (Google must be crazy!)
Check and see if you have the setting to change brightness depending on image content enabled or not (different than auto brightness).
I like the Screen Filter app. I even use a similar thing on my desktop. Bah humbug to too-bright screens.
The screen filter app is great, thanks
But the normal internet browser is still darker. If i open chrome or an other app and than open the internet browser in splitscreen the whole screen gets darker. I thought there were more apps wich are darker but i think i was wrong -> the only darker app is internet but why?
@pennycake this setting changes nothing. What does it exactly do? How can i check if it's working.

Easy way to rotate pictures?

I noticed that there doesnt seem to be a rotate clockwise/counter clockwise feature in the stock gallery. Clicking edit gives an option to open the image with PS Touch or Paper Artist. There should be an easy way to change image orientation, right?

Sv: Easy way to rotate pictures?
Right! In the stock gallery application, click menu (the three horizontal bars) and rotate image to the left or right. Or don't you have that setting avaliable?

This is a bit strange.
They dont have that feature when in the "screenshots" folder. I didnt bother checking the other folders before, as I thought they would all be the same.
I guess I can bypass that by just moving the pictures to a different folder but still not sure why its not available in that folder.

It turns out that screenshots can't be rotated no matter which folder you place it in.

So actually you can't from the gallery app but a way around it is if you use the Google Photos app, just edit it in there and then you can rotate a screenshot in this way. Not perfect, but a nice workaround.

[Q] how to enable multi user support for cm10.1

I thought that was just for tablets...?

multi user
it can be enabled for phones on some roms. it can be enabled for cm10.1 however we can only switch users by landscaping the lockscreen.. i wonder if we can do it having it on portrait. we just need the widget.

Virtual soft keys

Hey, I've broken my back button, whilst I await new parts to fix it can anyone suggest how I can add the virtual touch keys to the screen?
Preferably just an app or simple mod as I don't really wanna change ROMs.
Fwiw I'm on ultimate rom.
Thanks
