this is what I'm using so far

    if (imageURI.substring(0,21) === 'content://com.android') {
      var photoSplit=imageURI.split('%3A');
      imageURI='content://media/external/images/media/'+photoSplit[1];
    }
    q.resolve(imageURI);
  }
  return {
    getPicture: function() {
      var q = $q.defer();
      navigator.camera.getPicture( cameraSuccess,
                                  function(msg) {
                                    q.reject(msg);
                                  }, {
        sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY

      return q.promise;
