Selected Gallery image not showing in imageview

I was selected the image after it have to set it in the imageview.But it doesn't set it in imageview.
I have posted the relevant code.
EditViewProfileActivity.java
public class EditViewProfileActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener {
private static final int CAMERA_PICTURE = 1;
private static final int GALLERY_PICTURE = 2;
File destination = null;
String filePath = null;
Bitmap chosenImage;
String imgSelected = null;
ImageView dateBirthImg;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.edit_view_profile_activity);
galImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.gallery_image_edit_view);
galImageView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
choosePictureAction();
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == GALLERY_PICTURE
&& resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
String[] projection = {MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImageUri, projection, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String selectedImagePath = cursor.getString(column_index);
destination = new File(selectedImagePath);
filePath = selectedImagePath;
BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeFile(selectedImagePath, options);
final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 200;
int scale = 1;
while (options.outWidth / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE
&& options.outHeight / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE)
scale *= 2;
options.inSampleSize = scale;
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
chosenImage = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(selectedImagePath, options);
if (chosenImage != null) {
imgSelected = "fulFilled";
galImageView.setImageBitmap(chosenImage);
Log.e("ChosenImage", "" + chosenImage);
}
} else if (requestCode == GALLERY_PICTURE
&& resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
}
}
private void choosePictureAction() {
final CharSequence[] items = {"Camera", "Gallery", "Cancel"};
android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog.Builder builder = new android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog.Builder(EditViewProfileActivity.this);
builder.setTitle("Add Photo!");
builder.setItems(items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
if (items[which].equals("Camera")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_PICTURE);
} else if (items[which].equals("Gallery")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, GALLERY_PICTURE);
} else if (items[which].equals("Cancel")) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
}
});
builder.show();
}
}
I dont know why selected image not showing in imageview.Anyone can help me with this.Thank you.

I Have use this code:
private void openGallery() {
Intent gallery =
new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(gallery, PICK_IMAGE);
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK && requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) {
Uri imageUri = data.getData();
try {
bitmaps = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(this.getContentResolver(), imageUri);
final ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bitmaps.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, stream);
byte[] byteArray = stream.toByteArray();
encodeded = Base64.encodeToString(byteArray, Base64.DEFAULT);
byte[] decodedString = Base64.decode(encodeded, Base64.DEFAULT);
Bitmap decodedByte = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(decodedString, 0, decodedString.length);
userinfoimage.setImageBitmap(bitmaps);
new UploadImage().execute();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

If you only want to set image in imageview. you can directly use the uri. Like this
String stringUri = selectedImageUri.getPath();
galImageView.setImageURI(null);
galImageView.setImageURI(Uri.parse(stringUri));

get the file path to upload to server

I am creating a application in which i want to send image to the web Server.For that i am using camera and gallery intent.Now what i want is to get the path of the image which user selects so that i can upload to the server.Now how can i get the path???
Code
if (userSelection.equals("Gallery")) {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
btChooseDoc.setText("Choose File");
}
if (userSelection.equals("Camera")) {
intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
btChooseDoc.setText("Choose File");
}
if (userSelection.equals("Other")) {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("file/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, 2);
btChooseDoc.setText("Choose File");
}
}
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// Bitmap camera;
ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
if (requestCode == 1 && resultCode == getActivity().RESULT_OK) {
camera = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
camera.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 60, bytes);
galleryImage = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(galleryImage, 150, 150, false);
image.setImageBitmap(camera);
}
if (requestCode == 0 && resultCode == getActivity().RESULT_OK) {
galleryUri = data.getData();
try {
galleryImage = decodeUri(getActivity(), galleryUri);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
galleryImage.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 60, bytes);
galleryImage = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(galleryImage, 150, 150, false);
image.setImageBitmap(galleryImage);
}
}

Try this way,hope this will help you to solve your problem.

Hello You Can Try Below code to get path of selected Image from gallery..
To Open Gallery...
private static int RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE = 1; //variable declared globally
on ButtonClickListener()
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);
Activity Result :
if(data != null){
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex); //path of image...
cursor.close();
}

finish or cancel camera intent causes window leak

I use below code to start camera capture on a button clicked:
Intent captureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(captureIntent, Variables.CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE);
On activity result, I just simply start "crop" activity.
if (requestCode == Variables.CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) {
picUri = data.getData();
performCrop();
}
When the camera first started, I pressed the back button to go back to the caller activity (A.class). And then start another activity, say B.class, causes window leak. Sometimes when B.class is called, the screen keep flashing....What's wrong with the code? Please HELP! Many thanks.
There are some alert dialogs I created, but it is already dismissed.

Try this is working like charm with me
private String selectedImagePath = "";

How to get image name of after taking photo or sd card in Android

I am little confusion about how to get image name, when taking photo from camera(Current Click image) or sd card(Already cliked or in the sd card image).Could you please help me out how to get image name.
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {
ImageView profImage;
Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
Bitmap scaledphoto = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(photo, height, width,
true);
profImage.setImageBitmap(scaledphoto);
//How to get name here
}
Now , Here How to get ImageName for propose of saving image on database.
Or
Imageview test=(Imageview) findViewById(R.id.testimage);
test.setImageResource(R.drawable.androidimage);
So, I want get name of image, Here image name is androidimage.SO How to get imagename.

You can pass the Bitmap to this method to get Image Uri.
public Uri getImageUri(Context inContext, Bitmap inImage) {
ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
inImage.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
String path = Images.Media.insertImage(inContext.getContentResolver(),
inImage, "Title", null);
return Uri.parse(path);
}
Finally you can set the image to image view with
imageView.setImageUri(mUri);

Please use the following code.
public class UploadImageActivity extends Activity {
private final int CAMERA_PICTURE = 1;
private final int GALLERY_PICTURE = 2;
private ImageView userPictureImageView;
private Intent pictureActionIntent = null;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main1);
userPictureImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
userPictureImageView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
startDialog();
}
});
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == GALLERY_PICTURE) {
Uri uri = data.getData();
if (uri != null) {
// User had pick an image.
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, new String[] { android.provider.MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA }, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
// Link to the image
final String imageFilePath = cursor.getString(0);
File photos = new File(imageFilePath);
Bitmap b = decodeFile(photos);
b = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, 150, 150, true);
userPictureImageView.setImageBitmap(b);
cursor.close();
}
else {
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, "No Image is selected.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}
}
else if (requestCode == CAMERA_PICTURE) {
if (data.getExtras() != null) {
// here is the image from camera
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
userPictureImageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
}
}
private Bitmap decodeFile(File f) {
try {
// decode image size
BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o);
// Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 70;
int width_tmp = o.outWidth, height_tmp = o.outHeight;
int scale = 1;
while (true) {
if (width_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE || height_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE)
break;
width_tmp /= 2;
height_tmp /= 2;
scale++;
}
// decode with inSampleSize
BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o2.inSampleSize = scale;
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o2);
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
}
return null;
}
private void startDialog() {
AlertDialog.Builder myAlertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
myAlertDialog.setTitle("Upload Pictures Option");
myAlertDialog.setMessage("How do you want to set your picture?");
myAlertDialog.setPositiveButton("Gallery", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
pictureActionIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT, null);
pictureActionIntent.setType("image/*");
pictureActionIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(pictureActionIntent, GALLERY_PICTURE);
}
});
myAlertDialog.setNegativeButton("Camera", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
pictureActionIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(pictureActionIntent, CAMERA_PICTURE);
}
});
myAlertDialog.show();
}
}
Dont forget to add the camera permission in your manifest file.

Updated Code
Gallery :
Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
photoPickerIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);

// divide bitmap to 4 sample size it can be 2rest(2,4,8 etc)
bounds.inSampleSize = 4;
// get bitmap from bounds and file path
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, bounds);
imageView.setImageBitmap(bmp);
Uri selectedImageUri1 = data.getData();

How to pick an image from gallery (SD Card) for my app?

This question was originally asked for Android 1.6.
I am working on photos options in my app.
I have a button and an ImageView in my Activity. When I click the button it would redirect to the gallery and I would be able to select an image. The selected image would appear in my ImageView.

Updated answer, nearly 5 years later:
The code in the original answer no longer works reliably, as images from various sources sometimes return with a different content URI, i.e. content:// rather than file://. A better solution is to simply use context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(intent.getData()), as that will return an InputStream that you can handle as you choose.
For example, BitmapFactory.decodeStream() works perfectly in this situation, as you can also then use the Options and inSampleSize field to downsample large images and avoid memory problems.
However, things like Google Drive return URIs to images which have not actually been downloaded yet. Therefore you need to perform the getContentResolver() code on a background thread.
Original answer:
The other answers explained how to send the intent, but they didn't explain well how to handle the response. Here's some sample code on how to do that:
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent imageReturnedIntent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, imageReturnedIntent);
switch(requestCode) {
case REQ_CODE_PICK_IMAGE:
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
Uri selectedImage = imageReturnedIntent.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(
selectedImage, filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String filePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
Bitmap yourSelectedImage = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath);
}
}
}
After this, you've got the selected image stored in "yourSelectedImage" to do whatever you want with. This code works by getting the location of the image in the ContentResolver database, but that on its own isn't enough. Each image has about 18 columns of information, ranging from its filepath to 'date last modified' to the GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken, though many of the fields aren't actually used.
To save time as you don't actually need the other fields, cursor search is done with a filter. The filter works by specifying the name of the column you want, MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA, which is the path, and then giving that string[] to the cursor query. The cursor query returns with the path, but you don't know which column it's in until you use the columnIndex code. That simply gets the number of the column based on its name, the same one used in the filtering process. Once you've got that, you're finally able to decode the image into a bitmap with the last line of code I gave.

private static final int SELECT_PHOTO = 100;
Start intent
Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
photoPickerIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, SELECT_PHOTO);
Process result
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent imageReturnedIntent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, imageReturnedIntent);
switch(requestCode) {
case SELECT_PHOTO:
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
Uri selectedImage = imageReturnedIntent.getData();
InputStream imageStream = getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedImage);
Bitmap yourSelectedImage = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream);
}
}
}
Alternatively, you can also downsample your image to avoid OutOfMemory errors.
private Bitmap decodeUri(Uri selectedImage) throws FileNotFoundException {
// Decode image size
BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedImage), null, o);
// The new size we want to scale to
final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 140;
// Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
int width_tmp = o.outWidth, height_tmp = o.outHeight;
int scale = 1;
while (true) {
if (width_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE
|| height_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE) {
break;
}
width_tmp /= 2;
height_tmp /= 2;
scale *= 2;
}
// Decode with inSampleSize
BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o2.inSampleSize = scale;
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedImage), null, o2);
}

You have to start the gallery intent for a result.
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_SELECT_IMAGE);
Then in onActivityForResult, call intent.getData() to get the Uri of the Image. Then you need to get the Image from the ContentProvider.

Here is a tested code for image and video.It will work for all APIs less than 19 and greater than 19 as well.
Image:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT <= 19) {
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setType("image/*");
i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
startActivityForResult(i, 10);
} else if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 19) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, 10);
}
Video:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT <= 19) {
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setType("video/*");
i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
startActivityForResult(i, 20);
} else if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 19) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, 20);
}
.
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == 10) {
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
String selectedImagePath = getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageUri);
} else if (requestCode == 20) {
Uri selectedVideoUri = data.getData();
String selectedVideoPath = getRealPathFromURI(selectedVideoUri);
}
}
}
public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri uri) {
if (uri == null) {
return null;
}
String[] projection = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, null, null, null);
if (cursor != null) {
int column_index = cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}
return uri.getPath();
}

Do this to launch the gallery and allow the user to pick an image:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, IMAGE_PICK);
Then in your onActivityResult() use the URI of the image that is returned to set the image on your ImageView.

public class EMView extends Activity {
ImageView img,img1;
int column_index;
Intent intent=null;
// Declare our Views, so we can access them later
String logo,imagePath,Logo;
Cursor cursor;
//YOU CAN EDIT THIS TO WHATEVER YOU WANT
private static final int SELECT_PICTURE = 1;
String selectedImagePath;
//ADDED
String filemanagerstring;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
img= (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.gimg1);
((Button) findViewById(R.id.Button01))
.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// in onCreate or any event where your want the user to
// select a file
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);

For some reasons, all of the answers in this thread, in onActivityResult() try to post-process the received Uri, like getting the real path of the image and then use BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path) to get the Bitmap.
This step is unnecessary. The ImageView class has a method called setImageURI(uri). Pass your uri to it and you should be done.
Uri imageUri = data.getData();
imageView.setImageURI(imageUri);
For a complete working example you could take a look here: http://androidbitmaps.blogspot.com/2015/04/loading-images-in-android-part-iii-pick.html
PS:
Getting the Bitmap in a separate variable would make sense in cases where the image to be loaded is too large to fit in memory, and a scale down operation is necessary to prevent OurOfMemoryError, like shown in the #siamii answer.

call chooseImage method like-
public void chooseImage(ImageView v)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, SELECT_PHOTO);
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent imageReturnedIntent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, imageReturnedIntent);
if(imageReturnedIntent != null)
{
Uri selectedImage = imageReturnedIntent.getData();
switch(requestCode) {
case SELECT_PHOTO:
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK)
{
Bitmap datifoto = null;
temp.setImageBitmap(null);
Uri picUri = null;
picUri = imageReturnedIntent.getData();//<- get Uri here from data intent
if(picUri !=null){
try {
datifoto = android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(this.getContentResolver(), picUri);
temp.setImageBitmap(datifoto);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Image is too large. choose other", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
break;
}
}
else
{
//Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "data null", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
