Hey, I'm not sure as to what is going wrong exactly...but you might want to check the launchMode of your activity/ies. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#lmode
I remember I had a similar issue in the past (not with the camera though) when I launched an app from the Market (where it shows the 'Open' and 'Uninstall' buttons), then pressed home, and started that same app from the app drawer. Hope it helps somehow.
