Error description
Using the DATA_URL option in the cordova-plugin-camera, saved images end up being rotated by 90 degrees on Samsung devices. This only happens if the photo is taken in portrait mode. It will save the photo as landscape by rotating it. When tested on Nexus devices, it saves to the photo album without any problems.
