Android - Orientation of B64 image upside down with Front Facing Camera

[mattmilan-dev]

Describe the bug When taking a photograph on the Samsung Galaxy A40 using the front facing camera on device, the finalised base64 image appears upside down, even after the supposed fix of #75. On NPM Version 2.0.0-beta0

To Reproduce Load the camera preview and run await CameraPreview.capture(); displaying the image in an img tag.

Expected behavior The expected behaviour is that regardless of camera, the orientation should always be the right way up.

Screenshots

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Samsung Galaxy A40
• OS: Android 10

Additional context Oddly, the device has 3 cameras available: Back, Front (Really Zoomed In, but front camera) and Front (less zoomed in, [i'm guessing Ultrawide]). To get to the front facing camera i have to call the flip function twice, which led me to believe that the cameraCurrentlyLocked == Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT part of the if statement on L658 was blocking reaching the switch statement. Once i removed that part of the if statement it worked as expected, however this caused the back camera to (as you probably guessed), flip upside down.

I edited CameraActivity.java#658 to if(cameraCurrentlyLocked != Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_BACK && disableExifHeaderStripping) { and now everything seems to be working, although i don't know if this would work with cameras having multiple back facing cameras, therefore will not submit a pull request until more information has come in.

I do not know Java so i don't know what is at fault here.

Im getting the same error on Samsung s10e would you try this if the platform is android

  <img [ngClass]="!platform.is('ios') && cameraPreviewOptions.position != 'rear' ? 'fix-flip':''" [src]="photo">

    .fix-flip{
         transform: scaleY(-1);
     }
