问题
I need to get camera preview data only, but not visible preview. Since I'm doing all this in a service, I had to create a dummy SurfaceView, which works very well.
I've used the code from this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10268650/1395697
However, with TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY it didn't work. It was invisible but no preview data was received (in onPreviewFrame()). When I change this argument to 0, I get preview data, but the SurfaceView is visible.
Do you know any other way to do this?
What I did now is just make a visible SurfaceView with width and height of 1 and then I create an ImageView overlay with a specific color so that you don't see the change of color of the SurfaceView. But this isn't neat at all and I'd really like to do it a bit better.

i also used the same stackOverflow answer, and get the same problem.so:
i've added this code
this.setZOrderOnTop(true);
SurfaceHolder h = this.getHolder();
h.setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT);
to my surfaceChanged method, instead of the activity (or a service at my case), and got it trasparent, but the Log complains on abandoned frames :(

You don't actually have to place the SurfaceView on your UI at all. We were running into the same issue and made a dummy SurfaceView. Here's our code:
SurfaceView dummy = new SurfaceView(c);
try {
mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(dummy.getHolder());
} catch (IOException e) {
}
mCamera.setPreviewCallback(this);
mCamera.startPreview();
