Android Cordova 5.0+ Camera crash

Question

We are using Cordova 5.0.0 and its cordova-camera-plugin

When we are testing it on Android, the app crashes when the user takes a photo. Looking at the links below, it seems that our app is being killed while the camera app it on front.

PhoneGap camera restarts the application

While there are some answers but it seems to be outdated: The foreground camera plugin is not suitable to newer devices or Cordova and other solutions didn't work for us

Does anyone have an up-to-date solution?

Answer 1

Try to use this forked cordova-android and cordova-plugin-camera.

The docs, sample and discussion on the approach used can be found in the cordova-android PR.

BTW, the PRs are going to be merged soon.
