Using an implicit intent at the moment of picture-taking
usually goes unnoticed. But immediately after installing a
new camera, this behavior becomes incredibly frustrating to
users as they are presented with a puzzling resolver dialog
(or in the case of the secure camera, the authenticator).
And if, at this moment, the user chooses to make one of the
options a default, it's almost impossible to figure out how
to change this setting.
As a result, many OEMs simply hardcode the camera gesture to
launch a specific preinstalled camera, but this is poorly
supported by AOSP, leading to duplicate implementations and
bugs. This patch routes all camera intents in System UI
through a single utility class, creating a convenient spot
to insert a resource that contains the OEM's default
preinstalled camera app.
Note that this does not affect implicit intent resolution in
any way; any app may create a chooser for, e.g.,
MediaStore.INTENT_ACTION_STILL_IMAGE_CAMERA and allow the
user to pick from the available cameras.
