Richard B Knoll commented on CB-10721:
--------------------------------------
I can reproduce this on a Galaxy S6 Edge +. The issue here is being caused by
the {{encodingType}} being set to PNG. The native camera application outputs a
JPEG, which we convert to a PNG when that flag is set. If you need a quick fix,
just don't use the PNG {{encodingType}}. I have verified that using the JPEG
{{encodingType}} is significantly faster. There also isn't really any reason to
use the PNG format on Android; the native application outputs a JPEG, so you
don't gain any quality by using PNG. That being said, the plugin's current
behavior is clearly wrong. After discussing this with Nikhil, there are two
action items that we need to investigate:
1. We need to verify that we are using Android's image conversion APIs correctly
2. The image processing should be asynchronous. I believe it already is when
you use the {{SAVEDPHOTOALBUM}} or {{PHOTOLIBRARY}} sources, just not for
camera for some reason
Thanks for reporting this!

> Using Cordova Camera plugin with function getPicture() takes a picture
> without any problem (when source is CAMERA). Default camera app opens, I take
> a photo, confirm it, then a black screen shows for around 20 seconds before
> I'm thrown back to my app with success callback.
> Picking photo from library doesn't have this issue.
