I've managed to programmatically take a photo from the camera, then display it on an imageview, and then after pressing a button, saving it on the Gallery. It works, but the problem is that the saved photo are low resolution.. WHY?!
I took the photo with this code:
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
Then I save the photo on a var using :
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST) {
thumbnail = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
}
}
and then after displaying it on an imageview, I save it on the gallery with this function:
public void SavePicToGallery(Bitmap picToSave, File savePath){
String JPEG_FILE_PREFIX= "PIC";
String JPEG_FILE_SUFFIX= ".JPG";
String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
String imageFileName = JPEG_FILE_PREFIX + timeStamp + "_";
File filePath = null;
try {
filePath = File.createTempFile(imageFileName, JPEG_FILE_SUFFIX, savePath);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
FileOutputStream out = null;
try {
out = new FileOutputStream(filePath);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
picToSave.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
try {
out.flush();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
//Add the pic to Android Gallery
String mCurrentPhotoPath = filePath.getAbsolutePath();
MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(this,
new String[] { mCurrentPhotoPath }, null,
new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
}
});
}
I really can't figure out why it lose so much quality while saved.. Any help please ? Thanks..
