Description

I'm calling the plugin like so (pasted below). When I take the file uri and try to load it into another interface, like the ExifInterface I get the following error:

E/JHEAD ( 6734): can't open 'file:///storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/1390266145786.jpg'

—

var cameraOptions =

{ quality: 100, destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI, sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA, allowEdit: true, encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG, targetWidth: 800, saveToPhotoAlbum: true }

;
navigator.camera.getPicture(
.bind(this.onPhotoSuccess, this),
.bind(this.onPhotoError, this),
cameraOptions);
