I would say that is something with your personal phone/device that would need to be resolved. I didn't have that problem with my phone during that phase of the project(Galaxy S4). I would say look at this link to possibly get an idea.. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12933085/android-camera-intent-saving-image-landscape-when-taken-portrait ..not sure if that is too messy for you code wise but it may get you headed in the right direction with that problem. Maybe a simple google search of the details for your specific phone of how to make adjustments to possibly prevent that behavior would get the job done also. Maybe someone else will provide a quicker or easier way though.
