takePicture never called

[ananduri]

Hey guys, thanks for this very useful library.

Problem:
When using a Moto G4, I can take a picture once. But the second time I try to take a picture, it doesn't work.

Details:

• When it fails, I see autoFocus in the Fotoapparat logs, but takePicture never shows up.
• The OS version was api 25
• I tried this on 4 phones:
  • Samsung S5: no issue
  • Samsung S6: no issue
  • Moto G: no issue
  • Moto G4: fails
• Snippet where I initialize fotoapparat:

fotoapparat = Fotoapparat
                .with(this)
                .into(cameraView)
                .lensPosition(back())
                .logger(loggers(logcat()))
                .focusMode(firstAvailable(  
                       continuousFocus(),
                       autoFocus(),        
                       fixed()             
                ))
                .photoSize(wideRatio(biggestSize()))
                .build();

• If I change the snippet to:

fotoapparat = Fotoapparat
                .with(this)
                .into(cameraView)
                .lensPosition(back())
                .logger(loggers(logcat()))
                .focusMode(autoFocus()) //  <---  this line changed
                .photoSize(wideRatio(biggestSize()))
                .build();

this issue doesn't arise. But then obviously I can't use continuous focus mode.

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the problematic device right now, so I can't do additional testing. If this issue isn't solved because of that, feel free to close it, and I can open an issue again when I get access to the device.

Thanks for the report!

We encountered somewhat similar (although not exactly the same) problem on an an emulator, but this is the first time we hear about it happening on a real device. Will try to fix it 👍

OK, that was an easy fix. You can expect it in the next version (should be available until the end of the week).
