Camera.open() returns null

android, android-camera

Solution

Figured it out,

You need to call `Camera.open(0)`.

THIS IS ONLY VALID AND WORKING ON THE NEXUS 7 device, as it only has one camera, so is only useful if targeting that device only.

Problem

When I call `mCamera = Camera.open()` it returns null, what could be causing this? My device is the Nexus 7. I already have the permissions set in my `AndroidManifest.xml`: ``` <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" /> ```
