Android camera locked after force close

Question

I have an application where I use devices camera.

Now I only release camera in normal flow.

@Override
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder surf         


        

Answer 1

Out of memory error comes because the image you tried to save exeeded the limit, normally comes when you try to process a bitmap.

You can try these methods to avoid camera getting not released.

Camera myCamera;

Use logs and fing where the error occurs and Add a try catch block and in the catch block add myCamera.stopPreview(); and myCamera.release(); Also override the ondestroy and onpause method and add myCamera.stopPreview(); and myCamera.release();

Hope this helps you or atleast gave you an idea.
