Android crop image using com.android.camera.action.CROP crash in HTC and Google Phone devices

In my application user can select image from camera or gallery in android.
After selecting image, user can also crop image from that original image.
But after cropping, I am getting crash from that in HTC Desire 10 pro (Android 6.0) and Goolge Phone (Android 7.1.2).
I notices that these two devices are using Google Photos as their default Gallery.
In Samsung A5 (Android 6.0.1) and LG G5 (Android 7.0) devices it works fine.
I am using below code to crop image:
private void getPathImage(Uri picUri) {
String picturePath = null;
Uri filePathUri = picUri;
if (picUri.getScheme().toString().compareTo("content")==0){
String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().query(picUri,
filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
}else if (picUri.getScheme().compareTo("file")==0){
picturePath = filePathUri.getEncodedPath().toString();
}
performCropImage(picturePath);
}
private void performCropImage(String picUri) {
try {
//Start Crop Activity
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
// indicate image type and Uri
File f = new File(picUri);
Uri contentUri = Uri.fromFile(f);
cropIntent.setDataAndType(contentUri, "image/*");
// set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
// indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
// indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 280);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 280);
// retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
// start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
}
// respond to users whose devices do not support the crop action
catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
// display an error message
String errorMessage = "your device doesn't support the crop action!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
How to resolve this problem?

Set default image cropper program in android

In my application the user selects an image. When the CROP_IMAGE intent is launched it displays the dialog to select one of the available image croppers installed on the device. I would like to solve that one of the installed programs launch default that user don't have to choose all time which program wants to use.
Is it possible to skip this chooser dialog and launch one image cropper automatically?

I found an answer :
Intent cropApps = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
cropApps.setType("image/*");
List<ResolveInfo> list = this.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(cropApps, 0);
int size = list.size();
if (size == 0)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Can not find image crop app", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else
{
ResolveInfo res = list.get(0);
Intent cropIntent = new Intent();
cropIntent.setClassName(res.activityInfo.packageName, res.activityInfo.name);
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 800);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 800);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("scale", true);
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
}

Intent setDataAndType as bitmap

I'm trying to use a method to crop a image. Exactly this method:
private void performCrop() {
try {
//call the standard crop action intent (the user device may not support it)
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
//indicate image type and Uri
cropIntent.setDataAndType(**HERE**, "image/*");
//set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
//indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
//indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
//retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
//start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, 1234);
}
catch(ActivityNotFoundException anfe){
Log.d("debugging","EXCEPTION");/*
//display an error message
String errorMessage = "Whoops - your device doesn't support the crop action!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();*/
}
}
This line, asks for a Uri Data and String Type.
cropIntent.setDataAndType(**HERE**, "image/*");
But I just want to put this bitmap
Bitmap fotoCreada;
as Data, but I don't know how to do it.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks.
EDIT
Okay, this is my code right now:
There's a button. When you click it:
public void onClick(View v) {
Boolean isSDPresent = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState().equals(android.os.Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED);
if(isSDPresent) {
//Creem carpeta
File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()+"/pic/");
folder.mkdirs();
//Recuperem data actual
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss");
String currentDateandTime = sdf.format(new Date());
//Cridem a la camara.
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
resultingFile=new File(folder.toString() + "/"+currentDateandTime+".jpg");
Uri uriSavedImage=Uri.fromFile(resultingFile);
cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, uriSavedImage);
//Començem activity
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, 1888);
} else {
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Issues while accessing sdcard.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
As you can see, it's calling startActivityForResult. Basically takes a picture, and I retrieve it on activityResult:
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
Log.d("debugging",""+resultCode);
if( requestCode == 1888 && resultCode == -1) { //-1 = TOT HA ANAT BE.
Bitmap photo = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(resultingFile.getPath());
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.postRotate(90);
Bitmap photoRotated = Bitmap.createBitmap(photo, 0, 0, photo.getWidth(), photo.getHeight(), matrix, true);
this.fotoCreada=photoRotated;
((ImageView) myFragmentView.findViewById(R.id.fotoCapturada)).setImageBitmap(this.fotoCreada);
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(this.resultingFile.getPath());
this.fotoCreada.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, out);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
performCrop();
}
if (requestCode == 1234 && resultCode == -1){
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) data.getParcelableExtra("BitmapImage");
Log.d("debugging",""+bitmap.getHeight());
}
}
And as you can see from previous code, as I retrieve the bitmap, I call method performCrop. It's code, now, is:
private void performCrop() {
try {
//call the standard crop action intent (the user device may not support it)
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
//indicate image type and Uri
//cropIntent.setDataAndType(this.picUri, "image/*");
cropIntent.putExtra("BitmapImage", this.fotoCreada);
//set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
//indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
//indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
//retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
//start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, 1234);
Log.d("debugging","he acabat performCrop");
}
catch(ActivityNotFoundException anfe){
Log.d("debugging","EXCEPTION");
//display an error message
String errorMessage = "Whoops - your device doesn't support the crop action!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
But startActivityForResult from performCrop never ends up calling onActivityResult. Log cat says it just entered once, and should enter Twice. First one from the camera Activity and second from Crop activity.
-1
he acabat performCrop
Hope it's clear enough.
Thanks.

Bitmap implements Parcelable, so you could always pass it in the intent:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, NewActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("BitmapImage", bitmap);
and retrieve it on the other end:
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) intent.getParcelableExtra("BitmapImage");
However, if the bitmap exists as a file or a resource, its is always better to pass the URI or ResourceID of the bitmap and not the bitmap itself. Passing the entire bitmap requires a lot of memory. Passing the URL requires very little memory and allows each activity to load and scale the bitmap as they need it.

Use Intent.putExtra. A bitmap is a parceable, so it will work. setDataAndType is used for URIs, but you aren't referencing a resource on the web or on disk.

how can I save a file after cropping?

I am creating an android application. It takes a picture then allows you to crop it and then displays it. Problem is that it only saves the taken image not the cropped one. Basically i need it to save the cropped image. how can I save a file after cropping?
Code:
private void performCrop(){
//take care of exceptions
try {
//call the standard crop action intent (the user device may not support it)
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
//indicate image type and Uri
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
//set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
//indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1.5);
//indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
//retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return", true);
//start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
}
//respond to users whose devices do not support the crop action
catch(ActivityNotFoundException anfe){
//display an error message
String errorMessage = "Your device does not support cropping";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}

Just add something like this:
try{
File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES
), fileName+".png"); //save to your pictures folder
outputFileURI = Uri.fromFile(file);
cropIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileURI);
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
} catch (IOException ioe){
// handle your exception
}
Remember to refresh the gallery after saving so that its instantly available in the gallery. So use this code maybe in your onActivityResult method?
sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED, Uri.parse
("file://" + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory())));
Edit: Found a better way to refresh the gallery since sendBroadcast can be a inefficient if you are just refreshing for one image. Use a MediaScanner to scan the file like so
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE);
intent.setData(outputFileURI); // Add the path to the file
sendBroadcast(intent);
This will just scan for the new file and refresh that instead of the whole gallery.

Fail Image cropping in Android

so I want to choose an image from gallery and then crop it:
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
"Select Picture"), PHOTO_PICKED_WITH_DATA);
OK, pick the photo and then catch it onActivityResult, then crop it:
Intent intent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
intent.setDataAndType(mAvatarUri, "image/*");
intent.putExtra("crop", true);
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
intent.putExtra("outputX", ICON_SIZE);
intent.putExtra("outputY", ICON_SIZE);
intent.putExtra("scale", true);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mAvatarUri);
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(intent, CROP_IMAGE);
now, the problem is when i want to transform it into bytes and then send it inside an xml... it doesn't take only the cropped image but instead the whole image itself...
also, i cannot access cropped image uri, it says file not found!
hmmmm, seems like my cropped image weren't saved after all...
how can i suppose to fix this?
Samsung ACE 2.3.4

Check this code in the following link.
Crop Image
It works fine for me..

I don't know how you got that technique to crop image. But, for me, I always use this library. And it never failed to impress me. Work from android 2.1 all the way to 3.2 (never test it on 4.0 onward).
Here's how I do it:
Intent cropIntent = new Intent(imageProcessActivity,
CropImage.class);
cropIntent.putExtra("image-path",
FileUtil.saveTempFile(ImageProcessActivity.processedBitmap, filename));
cropIntent.putExtra("scale", true);
imageProcessActivity.startActivityForResult(cropIntent, ImageProcessActivity.INTENT_CROP_CODE);
and here's how to catch the result:
if (requestCode == INTENT_CROP_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
Uri uri = null;
uri = (Uri) extras.get("imageCrop");
Bitmap bitmap = null;
try {
bitmap = ImageUtil.decodeFile(
new File(new URI(uri.toString())),
AppConstant.MAX_IMAGE_SIZE);
} catch (URISyntaxException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
processedBitmap = bitmap;
selectedImage.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
}
