Description

Camera.getPicture returns null for pictures and other files when using Google Drive in version 2.1.1. Other sources in the generic file picker such as Images, Photos and Astro File Manager works.

The camera plugin gets a null value in processResultFromGallery
03-14 10:21:00.066: D/CameraLauncher(21662): File locaton is: null

The return value from the file picker is
content://com.google.android.apps.docs.storage/document/acc%3D1%3Bdoc%3D3000 (see android log below)

Code sample:

        navigator.camera.getPicture(onPhotoURISuccess, onFail, {
            quality: 50,
            correctOrientation: true,
            destinationType: destinationType.FILE_URI,
            sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
            mediaType: Camera.MediaType.ALLMEDIA,

        });
