I tested it on Galaxy Nexus with image 20130918.1 and it works as expected.

Which HW did you test this on? Can you check again with a newer image?

The problem most probably is, that the disconnect() call in libhybris is not yet synchronous. Sergio is working on that one.

To make this work you need to add those settings in the declaration:
            captureMode: Camera.CaptureStillImage
            focus.focusMode: Camera.FocusAuto
            focus.focusPointMode: Camera.FocusPointAuto

Also I removed this statement:
cameraState: Camera.UnloadedState

So I think the Cordova integration can be fixed and made to work, without waiting for the synchronous disconnect API. The camera-app does work as well without that API fix either.
