I have a camera app in portrait mode which takes pictures from both front and back end cameras.I am saving the image in my sd card and try to find the corresponding exif value which gives 0 always.But i am getting the the expected exif orientation value for the other images stored in the device(like downloaded pictures).
How can i fix this ? Can anyone help me out ?
Here is the code used to save the picture and the find the orientation
PictureCallback myPictureCallback_JPG = new PictureCallback() {
@Override
public void onPictureTaken(byte[] arg0, Camera arg1) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
try {
File APP_FILE_PATH = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
.getPath() + "/Myapp/");
if (!APP_FILE_PATH.exists()) {
APP_FILE_PATH.mkdirs();
}
File file = new File(APP_FILE_PATH, "image.jpg");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
fos.write(arg0);
fos.close();
imageFileUri=Uri.fromfile(file); getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().notifyChange(
imageFileUri, null);
sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED,
Uri.parse("file://"
+ Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory())));
ExifInterface exif = new ExifInterface(file.getAbsolutePath());
int orientation = exif.getAttributeInt(ExifInterface.TAG_ORIENTATION, ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_NORMAL);
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
};
Following is the code for surphace created and changed functions

public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width,
int height) {
List<Size> sizes = parameters.getSupportedPreviewSizes();

camera.setParameters(parameters);
camera.startPreview();
startPreview();
