I am developing an app which uses the phone's default camera application to capture an image and then allow the user to perform some basic editing.I want the image captured to be saved in a location that is consistent with the stock camera application. Can I use the DCIM folder and assume all phones will use that location?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm just looking for some insight into what would be the best way for me to store images as part of my app. I have an activity that represents a 'Job' which has a couple of edittext's and underneath was planning on using the Gallery component to show images relevant to this job. The job data is stored in a database (on the sdcard) so was also thinking of creating a table to store 'JobImages' and having each image stored as a byte array.
But I'm not sure if it would be better to store the images directly on sdcard under a folder structure specific to my application and the job. E.g. using the job ID number as a folder name. Depending on which method I use will greatly determine the code that goes into an 'adapter' that allows me to bind to the gallery component so before I begin I was wondering if anyone has had the same design problem and what option they chose.
Is there any easy (preferably free) way that I can backup/sync my DCIM (pictures) to the "cloud"?
I probably don't need something that does it automatically. I think doing it on-demand when I want to would be fine.
I almost never need to connect my phone to the PC anymore, so I'd really love a way to safely backup the pictures without having to do so.
Looking through my DCIM folder I find that under .thumbnails I have 200+ files each 50.00K that seem to be tied to browsing.
Do I really need them and can I setup my Desire to auto delete them if not required?

I am working with camera.. I am facing one problem during capturing image.The image is not saving directly to gallery.But when i reboot my device its appearing. Can anybody tell me why this happens.and How can i solve it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using this camera code to ask the camera to rotate the captured image data... this seems to work on all phones, except the Droid. Has anyone else seen this? The image data is always landscape, however, the native camera app produces portrait images OK. I wonder if the Droid will only respect the new Camera.Parameters.set Rotation() method, but this seems to only be available in sdk level 5?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems trying to use files after moving them.
Example:
I took a bunch of pictures at an event, the created a folder for that event and moved the pictures into it. I can still open the pictures one at a tiem by navigsting too them, but the galleary app still shows the thumbs, but cannot find them.
Example 2:
I downloaded an mp3 for a ring tone, and while in the downloads folder the music player found it and I was able to set it at a ring tone. But I tried to create a ringtones folder, and then music could not find it, and just playing it by opening the file would not allow me to set a ring tone.
So how does this work? I have seen references here to folders called Media and ring tones, but I see nothing like that in the file system on my phone. Where does one put music if they want to actually use the music player?
Is the DCIM folder the ONLY one that works with the photo gallery? Is the Downloads folder the ONLY one that works with the music player?
Just noticed today all pictures in my /Camera/DCIM directory are gone, a whole 2GB+ worth. Has this happened to anyone? It hasn't moved elsewhere because I also noticed 2GB more space freed up on the internal SD card. Luckily I backed up 1.7GB+ of it recently. Just a warning for you guys to keep constant backup!

I'm trying to build my own Froyo images for Nexus one using the source code downloaded from android.git.kernel.org. The platform code is the master branch and the kernel code branch is android-msm-2.6.32. I built the images successfully. However, when I flashed my Nexus one with the images, the system hang at the colorful X screen. My Nexus one's specification and the steps I used to build the images are below. Could you please tell me whether I missed anything during the process? Is there any tool that I can use to hook up with the phone when the phone boots so that I know which part goes wrong?
My nexus one specification: HBOOT-0.33.0012 MICROP_0b15 TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0103 RADIO-4.06.00.12.7
I built the system image and kernel image following the steps below.
1. For platform, at the root for the platform source code: a) . build/envsetup.h b) lunch 4 c) cd device/htc/passion ./extract-files.sh d) make
2. For kernel, at the root for kernel: a) export ARCH=arm b) export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- c) make msm_defconfig d) make
3. Build platform against kernel, at the root for platform source: a) Copy kernell/arch/arm/boot/zImage to out/target/product/passion/ kernel c) make
The Emulator's camera worked fine for taking pictures in 2.1 Eclair. What did not work was recording videos, obviously.
Now running an app which worked merely flawless on 2.1 Emulator causes the camera app to crash. I fire up an intent to launch it:
CODE:...................
This starts the camera app but after a few seconds it crashes.
The output is:
CODE:.................
Actually I just wanted to see if the bug which made you receive a small image from the camera even though EXTRA_OUTPUT was specified has been fixed in FroYo. Unfortunately, I don't even get to test it.

My application requires that when a snapshot is taken it must store in memory and next time when I restart the phone I must get a thumbnail of that photo in list of photos and the full scale photo when I click on it.There are 2 ways I know.
1. Store images directly. Concern here is every time it has to hit directory to get image which takes some time.
2. Store all images in single xml. Concern here is XML will be too big and takes time to parse.

I have been working on creating a Grid View of images, with images being present in the Assets folder. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1933015/opening-an-image-file-inside-the-assets-folder link helped me with using the bitmap to read it.My application does read the image from the Assets folder, but it is not iterating through the cells in the grid view. All the cells of the grid view have a same image picked from the set of images. Can anyone tell me how to iterate through the cells and still have different images?
