Android how to fix camera orientation

Question

Notice how the view of the camera (NOT THE CAPTURED IMAGE) was flipped to left (image above), the orientation of the Activity is correct, but the camera view is messed up, please help me guys :) thank you.

Here is the XML layout file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:gravity="center|top"
            android:orientation="vertical" >

            <SurfaceView
                android:id="@+id/camerapreview"
                android:layout_margin="10dp"
                android:layout_width="300dp"
                android:layout_height="300dp" />
        </LinearLayout>
    </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

And here is the code for the activity:

public class CustomCameraActivity extends Activity implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {

    Camera camera;
    SurfaceView surfaceView;
    SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder;
    boolean previewing = false;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        setContentView(R.layout.camera);

        surfaceView = (SurfaceView)findViewById(R.id.camerapreview);
        surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
        surfaceHolder.addCallback(this);

    }

    @Override
    public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {
        if(previewing){
            camera.stopPreview();
            previewing = false;
        }

        if (camera != null){
            try {
                camera.setPreviewDisplay(surfaceHolder);
                camera.startPreview();
                previewing = true;
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
        camera = Camera.open();
    }

    @Override
    public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
        camera.stopPreview();
        camera.release();
        camera = null;
        previewing = false;
    }
}

Answer 1

I found the solution here. Answer by @Ed Jellard.

i just have to add camera.setDisplayOrientation(90); on surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) method, now the display is on the right angle.

see the happy T-REX :)
