w910i rotate problem

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 15:05:08 GMT

Hello,

maybe this is gonna be really lame question, but I have been struggling with this issue for a couple of mins..and not a clue how to do it.

Problem:

I took a picture via camera and a I wanna send it as a MMS.

While I click at that picture and press SEND as a picture message it always starts to "resizing picture" and the result is that the picture is UPSIDE DOWN! 😞

Dunno how to rotate it back, or prevent that rotation during "resizing".

(If I take the picture upside down, expecting that rotation during resizing, then it doesnt rotate it at all...so it keeps upside down...)

really noob, I know 🙂

I ll be glad for any support, thx

http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/mobilephones/downloads/w910i?cc=gb&lc=en Strange problem.Have you tried rotating the picture you have already taken until it's upside down (from the Options in the File manager or in the Camera) and then selecting to send it as a message? If this doesn't result in an upright picture either, I suggest you run the SE update service on your phone to update/re-install the software, as this sounds like a software glitch.Hope this helps.

Edit: If the pics you're taking are saved to the memory card, you could try formatting the card and see if that solves the problem.

Yeah its really strange...I tried the thing u had suggested and it was strange even more. Some photos were rotated to the right position and some not (so after few tries I managed to get the picture right and send, yes :-))

But I ll definitely update my software, have done in ages...

Thx Chris

If the pics you take are saved to the memory card, try formatting the card instead of running the update service.
