Maybe not, works on my Nexus 5.
Oh from that report, "DCIM directory havn't created in sdcard"

Is that some stupid hard requirement? Flaviu, can you check your Nexus 7?

Confirmed. Typical Android.

Renamed my /mnt/sdcard/DCIM to DCIMM and reproduced this bug.

Dominique - Let us know if you want to take a shot at this one too.

Is the solution to make a DCIM folder if it doesn't exist?
Ahh, I didn't realize. The method is documented that it might throw, and we're just catching and logging the exception.

Making the "fake" folder doesn't sound crazy to me (long as we have a comment explaining why we do it).
Hi Mark, yes I can fix this one. 
I will test the DCIM path before the call to the method "Media.insertImage". If the path doesn't exist, I will try to create it. If the creation fails, I will display a toast message: "Unable to create image folder".

Let's add a comment about why this check exists. Something like:

// Some devices don't have a DCIM folder and the Media.insertImage call will fail.

>+                File dcimDir = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
>+                        Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);

No wrapping needed here. Just keep it on one line.

>+                if (dcimDir.mkdirs() == false && dcimDir.isDirectory() == false) {

We can shorten this I think:
                  if (!dcimDir.mkdirs() && !dcimDir.isDirectory()) {


>+                    Toast.makeText((Context) this, R.string.create_image_folder_fail, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Let's just use the same general string:  R.string.set_image_path_fail

Can you post the call stack again?

Without a DCIM card Firefox won't be able to save the image. You probably won't be able to take a picture with your device.
The fix creates the folder if the folder is missing in the DCIM card. If the folder cannot be created (no DCIM for instance) you should have a toast message. Did you get a toast message?

This is working on my Nexus 7. Maybe you have it connected via ADB and that is causing a problem?

It is reproducible even if it is not connected to the PC.
I tried also to disable the 'Developer Tools' but still doesn't work.
'Unable to save image' toast is displayed.

I can successfully save the image via 'Save Image' option from the context menu.

In this case, what is the path to the downloaded image ?
(In reply to Dominique Vincent [:domivinc] from comment #23)

The path is /sdcard/Download/
After taking a picture with the camera of the device, can you access to the picture and get the path of the picture?
The path (Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) used by Firefox should be the same.
You can also try to reboot your device.

I found the issue :)
Nexus 7 2012 doesn't have a back camera, so it doesn't come with build in camera app.
After I installed a camera app from the play store the DCIM folder is created.
After that the 'Set image as' option works as expected.

Pictures taken with the camera are stored in: /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/
Does that mean we need to re-adjust the logic here? New bug?
