If you are running on Android device with a low memory, it likely happens. The OS kills you app for allocating memory for the camera app.

Device has 512 MB RAM, its work fine in emulator but not in my device with same RAM size (512 MB)

Can you share your app code so that I can try it on my phone.

$scope.fromAlbum=function(){
        
        $rootScope.showLoading();
        
        navigator.camera.getPicture($scope.loadImage, function(){ $rootScope.hideLoading(); }, {
            destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
            sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.SAVEDPHOTOALBUM,
            encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG
        });
        
    };
    
    $scope.fromCamera=function(){
        
        $rootScope.showLoading();
        
        navigator.camera.getPicture($scope.loadImage, function(){ $rootScope.hideLoading(); }, {
            destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
            sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
            encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG
        });
        
    };
    
    
    $scope.loadImage=function(imageSrc){
        UserImages.tmpImage=“data:image/jpeg;base64,”+imageSrc;
        $rootScope.hideLoading();
        $location.path(’/crop-image’);
    };

@jay if possible, can you bundle and share the zip that I can directly package using ionic and test on my phone.
