Camera intent not working with Samsung Galaxy S3
Solution 1:
Finally after struggling for three days, I have devised a simple mechanism to overcome the Samsung S3 Saga.
Below is the code, a quick summary of the code is that I first check the Manufacturer of the device and based on this I call different intents for camera.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private static int RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE = 1;
private static final int PICK_FROM_GALLERY = 2;
int CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST = 1337;
Bitmap thumbnail = null;
private static final int OG = 4;
private static final int CAMERA_IMAGE_CAPTURE = 0;
Uri u;
ImageView imgview;
// int z=0;
String z = null;
byte b[];
String largeImagePath = "";
Uri uriLargeImage;
Uri uriThumbnailImage;
Cursor myCursor;
public void imageCam(Bitmap thumbnail) {
Bitmap photo = thumbnail;
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
photo.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 70, bos);
b = bos.toByteArray();
ImageView imageview = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
imageview.setImageBitmap(photo);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button bt = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
bt.setOnClickListener(onBTN);
if (savedInstanceState != null) {
Bitmap Zatang;
String B1 = savedInstanceState.getString("message");
Toast.makeText(this, "SavedYeah" + B1, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
BitmapFactory.Options opts = new BitmapFactory.Options();
opts.inSampleSize = OG;
Zatang = BitmapFactory.decodeFile((B1), opts);
System.gc();
if (Zatang != null) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Success Zatang" + B1, Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
imageCam(Zatang);
}
}
}
private View.OnClickListener onBTN = new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
openNewGameDialog();
}
};
String[] B = { "Cam", "Gallery" };
private void openNewGameDialog() {
new AlertDialog.Builder(this).setItems(B,new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialoginterface,int i) {
if (i == 0) {
String BX1 = android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER;
if(BX1.equalsIgnoreCase("samsung")) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Device man"+BX1, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
} else {
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
}
} else if (i == 1) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);
}
}).show();
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode==CAMERA_IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode==Activity.RESULT_OK){
// Describe the columns you'd like to have returned. Selecting from the Thumbnails location gives you both the Thumbnail Image ID, as well as the original image ID

String selection = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND + "=" + // Select only mini's
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.MINI_KIND;
String sort = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails._ID + " DESC";
