Hi Pavel, and thanks for the reply. I'm happy to share the snippet of code I have for picture taking, but I have not tried it out yet because in order to see and use the picture-taking button in my activity view, I need to get the camera preview in the correct place first.
I still really need someone to help me on this please!! :) Here is the code I was looking at trying, but I've done extensive research on the subject trying to fix my placement of the camera preview, so here are also some links that may help you with taking the picture and storing it properly: (HTH!) http://www.devx.com/SpecialReports/Article/37721/1763?supportItem=5 http://www.devx.com/SpecialReports/Article/37721/1763? http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=704#704 http://www.androidph.com/2008/11/camera-capture.html http://www.devx.com/SpecialReports/Article/37721/1954 http://www.cs.trincoll.edu/hfoss/wiki/Using_the_Android_camera Code: public class ImageCaptureCallback implements PictureCallback { private OutputStream filoutputStream; public ImageCaptureCallback(OutputStream filoutputStream) { this.filoutputStream = filoutputStream; } @Override public void onPictureTaken(byte[] data, Camera camera) { try { Log.v(getClass().getSimpleName(), "onPictureTaken=" + data + " length = " + data.length); filoutputStream.write(data); filoutputStream.flush(); filoutputStream.close(); } catch(Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); } } } } On Aug 28, 1:02 am, Pavel <pavli...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey tinyang, > > Could you please share the code you use for picture taking?
