                        + ".jpg";

                Log.i("TAG", "new selectedImagePath before file "
                        + selectedImagePath);

                File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
                        selectedImagePath);

                try {
                    file.createNewFile();
                    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
                    photo.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 95, fos);
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    Toast.makeText(this,
                            "Sorry, Camera Crashed-Please Report as Crash A.",
                            Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                }

It is possible the storage is not in a state to be written to, there are a number of reason this could happen. You should be checking getExternalStorageState prior to accessing the external storage. Even if it is not happening on other devices, it could happen, so best to guard against it.

If external storage is MEDIA_MOUNTED, and your problem still persists, you can get a better handle on what is happening by looking at what caused your exception by adding e.getMessage() to your Toast or logs.

You also appear to be using the top-level directory for storing your files. This should not cause a technical problem, but is considered best to create a subdirectory for your app and store files there. From the getExternalStorageDirectory docs --

Applications should not directly use this top-level directory, in order to avoid polluting the user's root namespace.
