Description

From time to time (when I select a few photos from the picture gallery or just take a photo, the application is crashing. I'm looking for memory leaks but everything seems to be ok. The crash happens even before calling the success event. Here is a sample of the code: 
function chooseAPhoto() {
Titanium.Media.openPhotoGallery({

success : function(event) {
if (event.mediaType == Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO) { addImage(event.media); }
},
cancel : function() {
},
error : function(error) {
},
allowEditing : false,
mediaTypes : [Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO]
});
}

    I've tried the photo gallery example several times using the KitchenSink and it's happening the same. This is a random problem, you could select 20 images without a problem and just 3 to get the crash. Regards, Ariel

    Hi, I'm trying to deploy this by today. Is there any progress in fixing this bug? Regards, Ariel

    Is there any news regarding this issue? I wasn't able to deploy my app last week because of this bug. I really appreciate and support and feedback. Regards, Ariel

    Hello, I am unable to reproduce the issue (tested your code). I tried on the emulator with Android 2.3.3 and SDK 2.1.2 GA and it never crashed. Are you trying the Emulator or a real device? Which versions of the OS did you try, only 2.2? Thanks

    I've tried this with 3 phones: a Samsung Galaxy S with Android 2.3.3 an HTC with 2.2, a Samsung Galaxy S3 with 4.0.3 This error also happens with the KitchenSink sample on the device (everything happens on the device). The thing about this, is that you could select 20 pictures without any problem, and the 21 get crashed, or juist 3 pictures and the 4th you get crashed. This is something random, Thanks, Ariel

    Please, check this issue. Is still happening. Thanks

    Hello, We've still been unable to replicate the problem; did you still have issues using the latest SDK released?

    Same for me: Nothing inside the "success:" handler seems to be executed when it randomly crashes. (I also totally emptied the "success" handler from any instruction).

    I also have this issue in my Alloy app. I'm running Titanium 3.2.3. I get this issue every time on my Nexus 4 device. The app doesn't crash every time, but it will occasionally hang and go black. It will then recover after a few seconds. {noformat} [ERROR] : TiMedia: (main) [9798,265278] OnResult called: -1 [INFO] : 10:18:03: success ran [INFO] : I/dalvikvm-heap: Grow heap (frag case) to 46.837MB for 31961104-byte allocation [INFO] : Choreographer: Skipped 93 frames! The application may be doing too much work on its main thread. {noformat} 
       function selectPhoto(){
   	Titanium.Media.openPhotoGallery({
   		success : function(event) {
   			DTG.log("success ran");
   			if (event.mediaType == Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO) {
   				var submitPhotoWindow = Alloy.createController('submitPhoto', {
   					image : event.media
   				}).getView();
   				
   				submitPhotoWindow.open();
   			}
   		}
   	});
   }

    Is there something I should be doing differently in my code above to prevent this issue? Let me know if I need to provide more details on my environment.

    I have been able to reproduce this on a Nexus 4 running 4.2. Titanium SDK 3.2.3.GA CLI 3.2.3 Marking this issue as a bug for further investigation. Thank you for sticking with this issue. We will update you about it as soon as possible.

    Thank you!!!
  13. Nayram 2014-06-24

    Hi I am also facing the same issue when I run my app on a NEXUS 4, android version 4.4.3. Titanium sdk version 3.2.1 GA. I will appreciate some help on this issue.
  14. Giorgio Pagnoni 2014-07-08

    It must be a Nexus thing, since it crashes on my Nexus 7 too because of that "OnResult called: -1". Hope it will be fixed asap, or if you have a workaround please share it with us, thank you!

    The out of memory crashes can be avoided by scaling down the images before it is set to the imageview. Some of these devices may have high resolution camera and the image size may be too big to load in the memory. To resize the image, do something like anImageView.image = e.media.imageAsResized(600,600);

    Hi I am also facing the same issue in Ti. SDK : 3.4.0 :(
