Description

On Android using

Ti.Media.showCamera(
{
showControls: false,
autohide: true,
overlay: Ti.UI.createView({width:100, height:100, backgroundColor:"blue"}),
success: function(blob) { console.log("camera:success") },
error : function(e) { console.log("camera:error") },
cancel : function(e) { console.log("camera:cancel") }
});

Pressing the Android back button will not fire the "cancel" callback; However, when no overlay is specified, the cancel callback fires as expected.

Ti.Media.showCamera(
{
success: function(blob) { console.log("camera:success") },
error : function(e) { console.log("camera:error") },
cancel : function(e) { console.log("camera:cancel") }
});

TiCameraActivity Needs

   @Override
   	public void onBackPressed()
   	{
   		// Prevent default Android behavior for "back" press
   		//If there is a cancelcallback associated with this Camera, call it
   		if (cancelCallback != null) {
   			KrollDict dict = new KrollDict();
   			cancelCallback.callAsync(callbackContext, dict);
   		} 
   		super.onBackPressed();
   	}

Moving this ticket to engineering as I can reproduce this issue with SDK 3.2.0 release and Samsung Galaxy Nexus device.

Has this really not been solved in 6 years? Is there a workaround?
