in Android 2.3 (API 9), google introduced CameraInfo to check if the given camera is the back camera or the front camera in a phone with two cameras: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.CameraInfo.html
With this example you can get info from FRONT camera: How to open "front camera" on android platform?<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2779002/how-to-open-front-camera-on-android-platform>and it's the same for BACK camera. OK, but the problem is that i need to get info from BACK camera in a phone with android 2.2. The phone haves two cameras, front and back, and when i'm trying to get info of the camera, it returns the info of the FRONT CAMERA. I used this code: if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT <= 8){ Camera cam = Camera.open(); s +="<b><u>Main Camera:</u></b><br><br>"; s += "<b>Megapixels: </b>"+getCameraMegapixels(cam) +" megapixels"; s += getCamExtraInfo(cam); cam.release(); } I want to get the info from the main camera (the back camera), but that code gives me info from the front camera.... I'm sure there is a way to get the info from the back camera on Android 2.2 and lower devices. Someone knows it?
