Buri, while running with the latest master.

Gaia   5ae2df02e30bda2ae04830d6e181ecf31ff38817
SourceStamp c69c55582faa
BuildID 20140326040202
Version 31.0a1

STR:
1. Lock the screen using the power button.
2. Swipe to the left to open camera.
3. Observe a black screen.

Logcat attached.

I checked a recent build on Nexus 4 and the issue doesn't exist.

Marcia: I just confirmed this is happening on my Hamachi as well. I noticed though that if the camera app is running and you return to homescreen and lock the phone, you can re-open the camera from the lockscreen. However, if you terminate the Camera app and then try opening it from the lock screen, it ends up at a black screen as you described.

Marking this a blocker (regression after merge from madai camera features branch)

Confirming Justin's comment that it doesn't happen if the camera app is open on both devices.

Unfortunately the logcat doesn't show anything related to the camera (the word 'camera' doesn't appear anywhere in it).

The following JS error is visible in the logcat when reproducing this:

E/GeckoConsole( 2688): [JavaScript Error: "types.forEach is not a function" {file: "app://camera.gaiamobile.org/js/main.js" line: 6011}]
E/GeckoConsole( 2688): [JavaScript Error: "NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS: [JavaScript Error: "types.forEach is not a function" {file: "app://camera.gaiamobile.org/js/main.js" line: 6011}]'[JavaScript Error: "types.forEach is not a function" {file: "app://camera.gaiamobile.org/js/main.js" line: 6011}]' when calling method: [nsIDOMSystemMessageCallback::handleMessage]" {file: "null" line: 0}]

`types.forEach` is referring to line 141 in lib/activity.js:

Also: Black screen when launching Camera from Gallery app (when Camera was not already previously running). Both of these issues have the same root cause. Submitting a PR now.

The patch probably fixes the bug, but the code around the patch is so bad to begin with that I'd like to take this opportunity to request a bigger, better fix.

Ideally: the getModes() function would only be called for pick activities and not for the "record" activity that we use to invoke the camera.

Failing that, the logic of the getModes() function needs to be cleaned up and commented. Because right now it seems incoherent to me.

David: I have cleaned up the code in activity.js. I think it is much easier to understand now. Please re-review. Thanks!

A couple of bugs and a couple of suggestions.  See github.

David: Please re-review and let me know if this looks ok. The app is now properly handling the 'record' activities and setting the correct `mode` (e.g.: picture, video) accordingly. So, the Gallery app will launch the Camera in the 'picture' mode by default, whereas the Video app will launch in the 'video' mode. Also, unit tests have been added/updated for everything in this patch.

r+ with nits addressed.

Most of my comments are requests for more comments in the code.

One of them seems like it might be a bug: I think the picture mode gets configured twice when the Camera is launched by activity, and I think lib/activity.js is taking over the definition of the default mode from config/app.js

I can review again if you'd like but if you address my nits and test carefully you can land this without re-review.

We can reproduce this in the today's automation build:

Bulk edit for camera bugs.

If earlier comments do not show how this bug landed to master, it probably landed as part of https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/pull/17599 which merged the camera-new-features branch into master.

This bug was uplifted from master to v1.4 as part of https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/commit/a8190d08e61316a86bba572ba8d894d081a20530
