I recommend the only things you make static be strings, and that for
everything else you are considering making static, instead write it to
file and use static methods, that expect to be passed a context, to
access the data.

I think my problems might be camera related, so my plan is to stop
using our own camera related activites and just use an intent to
launch the camera, and then read the returned result.
