Description

The camera.getPicture method returns a blob: URI when a File URI is requested.

I've been able to tweak it to my needs by changing:
_imageUrl = URL.createObjectURL(storageFile);

to:
var _imageUrl = storageFile.path;

However the result is not strictly speaking a FILE URI, so that may not be the preferred solution.
