[TIMOB-4235] Android: taking a picture crashes app on Sony Xperia X10

Taking a picture crashes app on Sony Xperia X10. Can be reproduced reliably with Kitchen Sink, by executing "Phone -> Camera -> Camera Basic" and taking a picture. The example below causes the same error. Only crashes on "Sony Xperia X10". Step 1: run the code below Step 2: take a picture Step 3: notice the app crash

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({ fullscreen: true });

var cameraOverlay = Ti.UI.createView();
var cameraButton = Ti.UI.createButton({
	title:"Take Picture",
	bottom: 10
});
cameraButton.addEventListener('click', function(e){
	Ti.Media.takePicture();
});
cameraOverlay.add(cameraButton);

var open = Ti.UI.createButton({
	title: 'Open',
	bottom: 100,
	height: 40,
	width: 200
});
open.addEventListener('click', function(){
	Titanium.Media.showCamera({

		success:function(event)
		{
			var cropRect = event.cropRect;
			var image = event.media;

			Ti.API.debug('Our type was: '+event.mediaType);
			if(event.mediaType == Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO)
			{
				var imageView = Ti.UI.createImageView({
					width:win.width,
					height:win.height,
					image:event.media
				});
				win.add(imageView);
			}
			else
			{
				alert("got the wrong type back ="+event.mediaType);
			}
		},
		cancel:function()
		{
		},
		error:function(error)
		{
			// create alert
			var a = Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog({title:'Camera'});

			// set message
			if (error.code == Titanium.Media.NO_CAMERA)
			{
				a.setMessage('Please run this test on device');
			}
			else
			{
				a.setMessage('Unexpected error: ' + error.code);
			}

			// show alert
			a.show();
		},
		saveToPhotoGallery:true,
		allowEditing:true,
		mediaTypes:[Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO,Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO],
		// overlay: cameraOverlay
	});
});

win.add(open);
win.open();

Workaround

Use an overlay. In the example above, uncomment "// overlay: cameraOverlay" and the camera will work as expected.
