I want to upload a base64 image to my server, but I can't get a complete base64 Code from the camera or the gallery. My code is the following:

navigator.camera.getPicture(onSuccess, onFail, {
        quality: 100,
        destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
        EncodingType: 1
    });

function onSuccess(imageUri) {
    console.log('ImageURI ' + imageUri);
}

When the Code is printed to the console, I copy this code and try to valid it like the guy did in this inactive post, with the same issue as he has. phonegap picture base64 android

It can't be a limit on the console, because I can get complete base64 codes from local images.

I've tried some other qualities too, like 50 or 10.

The fact you are having trouble should make you seriously consider whether you want to b64 the image at all. Modern phones have crazy camera resolutions, 8 Mpixels being normal. Base64 encoding adds 37% more data, so its even worse.

Try with an smaller image, like 100x100, you'll see it working. I'm pretty sure Logcat cannot swallow 8 MB (read here)
