Ian Clelland commented on CB-6249:
----------------------------------
That is the way that Android works with media -- the native URLs for things in
the file picker / photo galleries are always returned as content-provider URLs,
with the {{content://}} URL scheme.
I think that for the camera specifically, it should be possible to get an
actual file url, if the pictures are stored somewhere accessible, like
{{/sdcard/DCIM/}} (I'm not sure that that's always the case though; across all
Android devices and versions).
> Camera fails to return an actual FILE_URI it always returns content://

> {code}
> navigator.camera.getPicture(function(imageURI){
> console.log('GOT IMAGE: '+imageURI);

> console.log(entry.name + " " +entry.fullPath);
