Description

No matter what I do I can not get a url of file:///... all I get is

content://media/external/images/media/1357

Here is my very simple code....

navigator.camera.getPicture(function(imageURI){
   console.log('GOT IMAGE: '+imageURI);
   window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(imageURI, function(entry){
      console.log(entry.name + " " +entry.fullPath);
   }, function(e){
      console.log('Some error occured: '+e.code);
   }); 
}, onPhotoFail, {
   destinationType: 1, 
   sourceType: pictureSource,
   mediaType : Camera.MediaType.ALLMEDIA,
   encodingType: 0,
   allowEdit : false,
   correctOrientation:true,
   saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
   quality: 50
});

I always get content://... for the returned path from camera and even the same thing when I resolve the url. Can you confirm this bug?
