[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-camera] HerickRaposo opened a new issue #721: Application fails to take photos with the camera on some android devices
HerickRaposo opened a new issue #721:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/issues/721
# Bug Report
## Problem
Application fails to take photos with the camera on some android devices
### What is expected to happen?
It is expected that the application after capturing and selecting the preview image will be able to continue the return process without closing the application.
### What does actually happen?
After taking the image capture and confirming the preview, the process is cut and the application is closed.
More specifically, when the application is in the background and the camera is accessed, after capturing, previewing and confirming, when trying to return to the application, the system ends the application process, therefore not being able to continue returning the image to the application
## Information
<!-- Include all relevant information that might help understand and reproduce the problem -->
According to research, the problem is due to a memory leak, however, the devices where the problem occurred do not lack this feature.
The problem so far has been encountered most frequently on Android Motorola devices. In my case, the problem was observed in the motoG7Play and MotoG8 phones.
Following instructions from Ionic and GitHub forums, I found some solutions like:
1. enable cordova-plugin-background-mode before capture and disable after (Not Work in Redmi note 7)
2. Add `<preference name="AndroidLaunchMode" value="singleTask" />` in config.xml (Reduced cases in MotoG8)
3. Set destinationType to DATA_URL, returning base64 format, later transforming the content into an image recorded on the device. (Dont work)

### Command or Code
<!-- What command or code is needed to reproduce the problem? -->
I will show you the base codes (First code) and the codes of the aforementioned attempts.
**Required plugins:** cordova-plugin-file,cordova-plugin-ionic-webview,
#### Base Code:
```
getimage(op){
const options: CameraOptions = {
quality: 85,
destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
sourceType: (op == 1) ? this.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA : this.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
correctOrientation: true,
}
this.camera.getPicture(options).then((imagedata) => {
let img = this.webview.convertFileSrc(imagedata)
let imagemTratada = this.domSanatize.bypassSecurityTrustUrl(img)
this.images.push(imagemTratada)
if (this.platform.is('ios')) {
this.caminhoImg.push(imagedata)
} else {
this.file.resolveLocalFilesystemUrl(imagedata).then((data)=>{
this.caminhoImg.push(data.nativeURL);
}).catch(error => console.log('error'))
}
this.verificaCondicao();
})
}
```
#### Second Code:
```
getimage(op){
const options: CameraOptions = {

destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
sourceType: (op == 1) ? this.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA : this.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
correctOrientation: true,
}
this.camera.getPicture(options).then((imagedata) => {
let base64 = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imagedata;
let blob = this.makeblob(base64);
let image = this.domSanatize.bypassSecurityTrustUrl(base64)
this.images.push(image)
this.file.resolveDirectoryUrl(this.file.cacheDirectory).then((diretorio)=>{
diretorio.getFile('Image' + Date.now() + '.jpg',{create:true}, (file)=> {
console.log(file)
file.createWriter((fileWriter)=>{
fileWriter.write(blob)
this.caminhoImg.push(file.nativeURL)
},
(error)=>{
console.log('Unable to save file in path '+ diretorio.nativeURL);

This issue is expected and it has been around for years. When the app goes into the background and the camera app is in the foreground, the system can kill the background app at any time. Even if the phone has 10 GB of free memory. It is a limitation of hybrid apps.

I have to agree with @mirko77 . More details can be found at: https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-camera/index.html#android-quirks
Version 5.0.2 is released previous week. You could try that version and when everything goes well, the result after an app restart during the camera action, should be in the PendingResult.
It's up to you to save the state of the app before the camera action is started and to guide the users back to the correct part of the app (with the photo from the PendingResult).
