Is there a way to get all of the photos when viewing with the gallery to fill the screen without having to switch to landscape mode?
On my windows phone, using HTC's album viewer and scrolling thru the pics, they always were rotated the correct way as to fill the screen without having to rotate the phone, whether they were taken as portrait of landscape pictures.
This is a bit annoying.
Oh, and a second question, how about a way to make the gallery go into camera shots by default when I push the gallery shortcut.
Thanks all wise android gurus.
Is there a free video rotating app/method that can be use directly on Android like the Gallery app does for images? Once in awhile my recorded videos get upside down and it seems like there should be an easy way to rotate this but I can't find any, it's frustrating... thanks!
Since I bought a smartphone with widescreen display, I'd like to browse pictures in full widescreen mode.
Well, it sounds easy but I can't find a way to do it with the Nexus5 through stock apps.
When browsing pictures in portrait through the Gallery this is what i get: the picture is cropped with 4 fat useless black bars on each side.
No way to get fullscreen with stock apps?

i use the gallery app(aosp), not photos. depending on the size of the photo, it will display more or less black bars. if the size of the photo fits the whole screen, then the whole screen is used.
Keep in mind the phone is taking pictures in a 4:3 aspect ratio which will never fill a 16:9 aspect ratio screen fully.
I suspect you realize that however and are just looking for a photo viewer app that uses Immersive Mode or Transparent Mode to hide the navigation bar. Check out this thread which has been outlining which apps have taken advantage of this feature already.

Not really, the size of the picture is actually a perfect 1080p (same aspect ratio of the Nexus5 display), and i took the screenshot with stock gallery app.

Yes i realized that, in fact i'm taking pictures in 2mpx only for that reason.
Looks like with stock Android you can't take nor view pictures in real fullscreen mode........
Use this instead of the horrible AOSP gallery or G+ Photos https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder

It seems the only way that I can swiftly open the 4K or Timeshift feature on the camera is to have the camera widget on my home screen. But i'd really like to be able to ad a shortcut to my lock screen, like an app shortcut but i can't find any way to do this. Does anyone know how to? Thanks.
Is there a mod or way to get other apps playing video content to 'fill the screen' ... i.e. crop to fit.
Not make app full screen from multitasking or allow apps full screen settings ... I mean like YouTube has a floating crop button to fill the display with the content? ?

On both Amazon prime video and Netflix there's an option to fill the screen. Not exactly the same and sometimes you have to press it a few times but it does work.
Also in display settings you can choose which apps to make full screen. I toggled them all.
