Geotags incorrect in the photos #49

Closed simsoo closed 13 years ago

simsoo commented 13 years ago

I only noticed yesterday that the geotags can be accessed through the photos from the gallery while the CM7 on the Defy. Upload you to Picasa, the photo but are not highly evaluated the GPS data. With the photos of my old N78 that works without problems. Seems to be a bug in the CM7 or the camera app?

Can anyone confirm this?

I guess the same problem happened with the stock ROM as well?

simsoo commented 13 years ago

I have found the error. In Exif-Data is "GPSLatitudeRef" not set (Unknown). If I put manually "GPSLatitudeRef" to "North" Picasa detects the GPS data. Can you fix this error. "GPSLongitudeRef" is always set correctly to East.

maniac103 commented 13 years ago

In my pictures (SOC camera, which camera type do you have?) GPSLatitudeRef is set correctly. Besides that, I don't think we can fix incorrectly written exif data, because it's written by the proprietary Motorola library. And you didn't answer my question - this problem also exists in the stock ROM, right?

I have a green lens. Unfortunately I have not tried the stock rom.

I have tried it with the Stock Rom (Froyo Rom Build 3.4.2_179-002). The error is the same. GPSLatitudeRef is wrong set to W. Can you fix this in CM7?

Fixed: https://github.com/CyanogenDefy/android_device_motorola_jordan/commit/594a5d8e49a842fbfdabf4a3c844bf6be710f701 The workaround is ugly as hell, but gets the job done.
