Camera.Parameters device specific crash (Samsung S3 Mini)

Question

The following code is working on a Galaxy Nexus, Samsung S3 and HTC One X but it crashes on a Samsung S3 Mini

@Override
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {
    Log.d(TAG, "entering surfaceChanged");
    Camera.Parameters parameters = camera.getParameters();
    List<Camera.Size> previewSizes = parameters.getSupportedPreviewSizes();

    // set barcode scene mode
    if (parameters.getSupportedSceneModes() != null && parameters.getSupportedSceneModes().contains(Camera.Parameters.SCENE_MODE_BARCODE)){
        parameters.setSceneMode(Camera.Parameters.SCENE_MODE_BARCODE);
        Log.d(TAG, "setting parameters.setSceneMode(Camera.Parameters.SCENE_MODE_BARCODE)");
    }


    Camera.Size size = previewSizes.get(0);
    if (previewSizes.size() > 2)
        size = previewSizes.get(2);
    else if (previewSizes.size() > 1)
        size = previewSizes.get(1);

    parameters.setPreviewSize(size.width, size.height);
    Log.d(TAG, "picsize w: " + Integer.toString(size.width) + " h: " + Integer.toString(size.height));
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB_MR2) {
        parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE);
        Log.d(TAG, "setting .setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE)");
    } else {
        parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_VIDEO);
        Log.d(TAG, "setting .setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_VIDEO)");
    }

    // setup cam flash mode
    if (parameters.getSupportedFocusModes().contains(Camera.Parameters.FLASH_MODE_AUTO)){
        parameters.setFlashMode(Camera.Parameters.FLASH_MODE_AUTO);
        Log.d(TAG, "setting .setFlashMode(Camera.Parameters.FLASH_MODE_AUTO)");
    }

    int maxZoom = parameters.getMaxZoom();
    int zoom = (int) Math.floor(maxZoom / 3);
    if (parameters.isZoomSupported()) {
        if (zoom >= 0 && zoom < maxZoom) {
            parameters.setZoom(zoom);
            Log.d(TAG, "setting .setZoom(" + Integer.toString(zoom) +")");
        } else {
            // zoom parameter is incorrect
            Log.d(TAG, "setting no zoom");
        }
    }
    camera.setParameters(parameters);
    camera.startPreview();
}

Log Output:

I'd guess that the S3 mini has a problem with one of my camera parameters. I dont't own a S3 Mini so I can't test all parameters one by one. Is there any obvious error in my code?

Answer 1

It's happen on

parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE);

samsung doesn't support this you can try

parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO);
