A bit late to the party, but I hope to help other developers struggling with this.

What helped me fix the issue was using:

android.support.media.ExifInterface

instead of

android.media.ExifInterface

It seems the ExifInterface from the support library does a better job at handling the various orientations. Please pay attention to the warnings the IDE gives. My warning was hiding inside a collapsed list of imports.
