Ok... as a loyal Apple customer I am starting to get a bit irritated. After loading iOS4 on my iPhone 3gs... I noticed some unusual things with photos and email. Before when I would take a picture and email it... the orientation was always the same as I took the picture and how it showed up in email. Now... if I take a picture in Portrait mode it will always show up in the email in Landscape mode. Also... if I take a picture in Landscape mode with the home key to the right... the picture will be upside down in the email.
I checked the forums and it seems lots of other folks are seeing this same issue. However there is no fix posted. This was NOT the way things worked pre-iOS4.
So I called Apple... after getting to 2nd level support and attempting a phone restore... the 2nd level rep. stated that this is "normal" behavior for iOS4. I asked how this could be since the phone did not do this in the previous OS. She merely said that "things change" and this could not be reported as a bug because it was normal expected behavior.
I don't buy this for one minute. iOS4 introduced the auto-resize feature for photos when emailing (Small, Medium, Large) and I bet the algorithm that does this somehow doesn't factor in orientation. Hence... why the picture gets screwed up. If I take a picture in Portrait mode... I should be able to email it in Portrait.
Why is Apple not dealing with these issues and merely saying things are "normal"??? Anyone else come across this issue??
