Solution

  • I created a phonegap app, the picture i take with the camera are getting saved in the standard gallery folder on the phone.

    Try my code :)

    function capturePhoto() {
      // Take picture using device camera and retrieve image as base64-encoded string
      navigator.camera.getPicture(onPhotoDataSuccess, onFail,{
              quality : 25, 
              destinationType : Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI, 
              sourceType : Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA, 
              allowEdit : true,
              encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
              targetWidth: 500,
              targetHeight: 500,
              popoverOptions: CameraPopoverOptions,
              saveToPhotoAlbum: true });
    }
    

    Btw.. its the saveToPhotoAlbum: true that you are missing it looks like, anyways try my code out and i hope it works :)
