I have leveraged the ZXing barcode scanner intent, but it will only scan App barcodes (the barcodes that you take a picture of and it installs the app on your phone). I want it to be able to scan the barcodes of everyday objects, such as those found on soda cans and boxes of food. When I put it up to a normal barcode it won't detect it.
Here is the code for when I call the intent.
public void onClick(View v) {
//Link to the Barcode Scanner intent.
Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
intent.putExtra("SCAN_MODE", "QR_CODE_MODE");
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
}
Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.
