When using the Camera app in Android, how can I return the whole image instead of just the thumbnail?

Question

I am making an app that sends a picture taken from the Camera app however the image it returns seems to be only a thumbnail how can I get it to turn the whole image?

Answer 1

Try using the implementation shown here

Specifically:

Camera.PictureCallback mPictureCallback = new Camera.PictureCallback() {

    public void onPictureTaken(byte[] imageData, Camera c) {

    }

};
