Receive Images from another app to our app

So when I am in other media apps like google photos I select an image and click the share button then in the share window I want my app to be displayed so that i can click it and get that image to my app.
I have build a simple chat application where users can send text and images to each other where all the data is stored in Firebase.
So when one clicks my app in the sharing screen the image should take me to the Chat activity where i have all my chats so that i click one of my chats and the image is then sent to them.
So how to achieve this process?I have searched everywhere and couldn't get the hang of the right tutorial all i am finding is sharing data from our app and not from other app to our app.
Thank you.
Edit : I have created a separate activity that should be launched when a user choses to share a image from other app.But when i click my app in the sharing menu then my app goes all white screen instead of launching the SharingActivity.
Below is my code and manifest file.
SharingActivity.java
package com.pappu5.navigation;
public class SharingActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<FriendsData, SharingActivity.ShareHolder> frv;

rv.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext()));

AndroidManifest.xml
<activity android:name=".SharingActivity">

<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
<data android:mimeType="image/*" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

You have to add below code inside Manifest.xml under activity tag like
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation"
android:noHistory="true"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
// below code with show your app as sharing option
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
You can change mimeType according to your need.
Hope this will help you.

With support library 27.1.1, when i start an activity my app freezes

I'm trying to update the compileSDKVersion to 27, so I also changed the support library to 27.1.1.
Now my app starts as always but when I try to start a new activity the app freezes.
It also freezes when resuming after the background mode.
Some code:

quick tiles is shown but not active in notification bar

I am trying to implement simple quick settings tile with the help of google docs,
but my tile appears to be there but greyed out(intent activity)- I can't click or do anything with it and cant remove it either without restarting my phone(one plus 3T/oreo8.0.0).
and the same thing goes with sample code google provided.
what things do i need to keep in mind/ how to do it?
is there anything I am missing?
I saw one similar question but it was a bit over my head.

Message not received when sending a message from Wear to Phone [MessageAPI]

I am trying to send a simple message from my wear [Emulator] to my android phone, The message should have been sent according to my logs on the wear but it does not trigger my "showToast" method on my phone [it should be triggered when a message is received]. Anyone has an idea what I could be doing wrong?
This is my Wear Manifest

</intent-filter>
</service>

This is my Wear logic [I have a button that sends the showToast message]
public class MainActivity extends WearableActivity {
private static final long CONNECTION_TIME_OUT_MS = 2500;
private static final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
private CircularButton mSendButton;
private List<Node> myNodes = new ArrayList<>();
private static final SimpleDateFormat AMBIENT_DATE_FORMAT =
new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm", Locale.UK);
private BoxInsetLayout mContainerView;
private TextView mTextView;
private TextView mClockView;
private GoogleApiClient mClient;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setAmbientEnabled();
mSendButton = (CircularButton)findViewById(R.id.sendToast);
mSendButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
sendToastMessage();
}
});
mClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addApiIfAvailable(Wearable.API)
.build();
getNodes();
mContainerView = (BoxInsetLayout) findViewById(R.id.container);
mTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text);
mClockView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.clock);
}
private void sendToastMessage() {
Log.d(TAG,"Sending message... Nodes List size:" + myNodes.size());
// send toast message logic...
new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
for(Node n:myNodes) {
Log.d(TAG,"Sending message to node:"+n.getDisplayName());
Wearable.MessageApi.sendMessage(mClient,n.getId(),"/showToast",null);
}
}
});
}
private List<Node> getNodes(){
new Thread(new Runnable() {
//
#Override
public void run() {
Log.d(TAG,"Getting nodes...");
mClient.blockingConnect(CONNECTION_TIME_OUT_MS, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
NodeApi.GetConnectedNodesResult result = Wearable.NodeApi.getConnectedNodes(mClient).await();
List<Node> nodes = result.getNodes();
for(Node n:nodes){
Log.d(TAG,"Adding Node: "+n.getDisplayName());
myNodes.add(n);
}
Log.d(TAG,"Getting nodes DONE!");
}
}).start();
return null;
}
}
This is my ReceiveMessageService in Mobile
public class ReceiveMessageService extends WearableListenerService {
#Override
public void onMessageReceived(MessageEvent messageEvent) {
Log.d("ReceiveMessageService","onMessageReceived");
//if(messageEvent.getPath().equals("/showToast")) {
showToast(messageEvent.getPath());
//}
}
private void showToast(String message) {
Toast.makeText(this, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
This is my MainActivity in Mobile
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks, GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener{
private static final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
private GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addApi(Wearable.API)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.build();
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
#Override
public void onConnected(#Nullable Bundle bundle) {
Log.d(TAG,"onConnected");
}
#Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i) {
Log.d(TAG,"onConnectionSuspended");
}
#Override
public void onConnectionFailed(#NonNull ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
Log.d(TAG,"onConnectionFailed");
}

It looks like you are using wrong pathPrefix in your mobile side AndroidManifest. Try to replace
<data android:scheme="wear" android:host="*" android:pathPrefix="/prefix" />
with
<data android:scheme="wear" android:host="*" android:pathPrefix="/showToast" />
Edit
Also keep in mind that MessageApi is not guarantee to deliver a message even if it returns a successful result code as Google's document stated:
Note: A successful result code does not guarantee delivery of the message. If your app requires data reliability, use DataItem objects or the ChannelApi class to send data between devices.

Gear Fit SDK IllegalStateException

I recently downloaded the Gear Fit-SDK from XDA-Developers-forum and tried the example in the pdf file.
The app is starting and I can click on the ListViewItem to start the ExampleDialog on my Gear Fit. But then I get the following error:
04-01 15:00:52.748 29498-29498/de.chrosey.gearfitone E/AndroidRuntime﹕ FATAL EXCEPTION: main

Here are my files:
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

private HelloCupDialog mHelloCupDialog = null;
private static final int Hello_Cup = 0;
private ListView mListView;

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, NAMES);
mListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.demo_list);
mListView.setAdapter(adapter);
mListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override

} else {
mHelloCupDialog.finish();
mHelloCupDialog = null;
}

I am testing on Samsung S4, Lollipop StockRom. IDE is Android Studio 1.1.
Has anybody an idea why it isn't working as other cups-enabled apps from PlayStore do?

You need to initialize Scup in your MainActivity before creating instance of ScupDialog. Add the following code after the setContentView.
Scup scup = new Scup();
try {
scup.initialize(this);
}catch (Exception e){}
Hope this is clear!
