Unable to scan Code 128 with Zxing Android

votes

I have integrated the ZXing barcode reader in my android application.

It scans most of the codes, but I have a electricity bill which it is unable to scan (using a Galaxy Ace 5.0MP). I think the problem is due to camera resolution and focus, because when I tried the same barcode on using Xperia SL (12.1MP) I got the result. So is there any solution to this problem?

I have attached a sample image of the barcode.

it is true that code is a bit long, but if u position camera so it fit just exactly in scanning rectangle everything should be with scanning.. - Ewoks
I tried your code with my Xperia mini pro 5MP using NeoReader app, and with no luck.. may be code is too lengthy - Harmeet Singh
ya its maybe due to the length i guess...But is there a solution to this problem??? - Audi

This scans instantly by the library itself:

It may be down to your camera, yes. I don't think you are doing anything wrong.
