No-Jun can you take a look at this please? Is there any reason why the user should not be prompted to give permission to the camera in this particular case?

[No-Jun Park [:njpark]]

Hmm, i'm wondering, would the wallpaper image contain the location info?  if so then it would be a problem, but if the wallpaper source file does not contain the location info by default, I think that is by design.  aosmond, could you confirm whether the wallpaper image contains the location information or not?

When the camera is accessed through an activity (in this case, the pick activity), it does not enable geolocation, and the image taken won't contain location info. So no permission prompt is expected behaviour :).
