[jira] [Commented] (CB-9649) Camera Plugin crashes the app when restarting MainActivity after shutdown by the Android system

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9649?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14959970#comment-14959970 ]

-------------------------------------

There is some discussion about this issue happening in CB-8804 and [this pull request|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/pull/97]. We should probably combine these issues into one that references the bigger problem (dealing with the Activity getting killed by the OS).

> On my Samsung S5 test device, when taking a photo with image stabilization on, it shuts down our app in the background (likely due to memory constraints) and then restarts our app once the image has been captured.
> The Camera plugin assumes that this.imageUri (https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/blob/master/src%2Fandroid%2FCameraLauncher.java#L387)  is still available in memory, but  it isn't available if the app was restarted (this.imageUri is not persisted anywhere).
> Because the intent is triggered with intent.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, Uri.fromFile(photo)), when the onActivityResult method is called there is no intent provided (so no way of loading the URI to the saved image).
> Suggestion: By removing the EXTRA_OUTPUT on the launching intent, the camera will return the URI in the returning intent which can then be read.
