antkmk,
I saw your post but did not have time to react to it so I almost ignored it. I apologize. I will try your solution soon and update. Crossing my fingers.
Thanks!
Hi guys,
this is my frist post, but I hope can help someone.
I had the same problem, I tried many different approach to solve it, but nothing work.
At least the solution was really easy ( but really unpredictable)
To Fix the unsupported camera problem, you just have to use the old way of declare Android permission in build.setting
Use
[lua]
androidPermissions = {
“android.permission.INTERNET”,
“android.permission.CAMERA”,
“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”,
“android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION”,
“android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE”,
“android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE”,
},
[/lua]
instead of
[lua]
usesPermissions = {
“android.permission.INTERNET”,
“android.permission.CAMERA”,
“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”,
“android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION”,
“android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE”,
“android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE”,
},
[/lua]
Hi @gasnervino,
Did you set up your “build.settings” in the exact structure as shown in this link under “Android Build Settings”?

I have not been able to play with the camera lately. My app’s target device is the iPad which works as per my previous post a while back. It turns out that it also works in android on a new htc one as well. I did not have to modify the permissions in any way shape or form, but it might be a solution for other devices, as posted. I have one last problem with iPad which it seems to crop the image no matter how I display it on the screen prior to saving it. It looks cropped or offset even in the file. This is my latest code.
function onBackFromCamera(event)
local photo=event.target
if photo then
photo:setReferencePoint(display.CenterReferencePoint)
photo.width=SCREEN_W – display.contentWidth
photo.height=SCREEN_H – display.contentHeight
photo.x=display.contentCenterX
photo.y=display.contentCenterY
local file=‘IMG_’…string.format(’%06d’,getNextPicNum(db))…’.jpg’
display.save(photo,file,system.DocumentsDirectory)
photo.isVisible=false
showPicture(file) – this function just displays the picture
end
end
local function onCamera(event) – camera button
if not event or event.phase==‘ended’ then
if media.hasSource(media.Camera) then
media.show(media.Camera,onBackFromCamera)
else
native.showAlert(‘App’,‘This device does not have a camera.’,{‘OK’})
end
end
end
