After configuration change in Camera, returns to app with empty ImageView

I have not found anything online that addresses this particular issue. I have an activity that takes a photo or video using the Android camera app. It then returns from the camera with the image or video, and shows it in a view. Both my video and image, capture and show, work fine when I am in the same configuration. But if I start the camera from my app in say, portrait, then when I am in the camera app I decide to change it to landscape, then once I come back from the camera app, my image shows a blank ImageView. It works fine if I stay in the same configuration. Like when I start in portrait, and use the camera app also in portrait, then my ImageView shows the image upon returning. Since I cannot write code for the camera app, not sure how to handle this.
However, my video has no trouble if I change orientation during use of the camera video. It displays fine when it comes back into my app, no matter which orientation I am in in either the app or the camera app.
But why does the image have problems? I've tried to save state in onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState, but this does not affect anything. I get null values for all my variables in those methods, when I log them (for video too). I think because it might have more to do with my Intent data? But that's just a guess. I looked over the Intent and see nothing missing. The image intent is a little different from the video intent, so maybe I'm missing something.
I do have 2 different xml files for the portrait and landscape layout, but they are identical and in the right folders. Android auto-chooses them when I do a configuration change.
If anyone has tips, thanks very much.
UPDATE:
I tried to add a line of code in my manifest: android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
and I overrode onConfigurationChanged(), but now my image comes back as a black screen. Both layout files are in my layout folder.
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
// Checks the orientation of the screen
if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_make_photo_video_land);
} else if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){
setContentView(R.layout.activity_make_photo_video);
}
}
UPDATE 2:
I undid everything I tried in UPDATE 1. Since that gave me a black screen and other unfixable bugs.
This time, I have added a configuration selector in onCreate to manually change the view:
// Checks the orientation of the screen
if (getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_make_photo_video_land);
mImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.taken_photo_land);
} else if (getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT) {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_make_photo_video);
mImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.taken_photo);
}
After more logging, I have realized when I change the configuration in the camera app, the following methods execute in this order (listed from 1st activity start):
onCreate()
onSavedInstanceState() - I leave my app to go to the camera
onCreate() - I return from app with a photo, a log on mImageBitmap is null.
onRestoreInstanceState()
inActivityResult() - then it processes the photo that is captured from camera.
The only thing I persist in onSavedInstanceState() is the mCurrentPhotoPath, which is needed to run the setPic() method in inActivityResult().
In onSavedInstanceState():
outState.putString("FILE_PATH", mCurrentPhotoPath);
In onCreate():
if (savedInstanceState != null) {
mCurrentPhotoPath = savedInstanceState.getString("FILE_PATH");
}
This processes fine, and a log on the bitmap value is not null. So why doesn't the image post still??

After all of my trial and error, I finally found the problem. My 2nd update was very close, the only fault was in the
mImageView.setVisibility(
savedInstanceState.getBoolean(IMAGEVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY) ?
ImageView.VISIBLE : ImageView.INVISIBLE
);
method. I had this in onCreate, only executed if it passed the null check, but what I forgot is that the image bitmap does come back null when the configuration changes in the camera app, so the visibility will always be set to invisible. The IMAGEVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY was set up to be true if the bitmap is not null, and false if it is null. So once I got rid of this, my other saving state code worked really well. Below is the final working code.

Hi We have the same problem in our one of the product, We apply the below solution it's work fine, actually our client has the Samsung device. Let's open your android manifest file see the MakePhotoVideo activity. see below what you have to add inside your activity tag.
<activity android:name=".MakePhotoVideo "
android:label="#string/app_name" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">
Actually there are lots of use case related to camera intent, especially Samsung device has majority of problem due to of the customization the native application, Apply this attribute to your activity tag. Let me know if you have any problem. thank you.

Whatever happens in the camera app while it is fulfilling your intent, causes the system to destroy your activity because it needs more memory.
You need to override onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) and save the ImageView state, and maybe other values, too. See an answer to Saving Activity state in Android for details.
You should be careful restoring app state when the activity is created to answer its startActivityForResult(), as explained here.

try to recieve the bitmap in onSaveInstanceState():
mCurrentPhotoPath = savedInstanceState.getString("FILE_PATH");
mImageBitmap = savedInstanceState.getParceable("BITMAP_STORAGE_KEY");
mImageView.setImageBitmap(mImageBitmap);
mImageView.setVisibility(
savedInstanceState.getBoolean(IMAGEVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY) ?
ImageView.VISIBLE : ImageView.INVISIBLE
);

Image bitmap not saving in onSaveInstanceState & onRestoreInstanceState

I'm having a configuration problem with my ImageView. I found code online that helps me to integrate taking a photo from my app. What it does is leaves the app, goes to the Android Camera, then returns with the photo. From here, I place it into an ImageView. Everything worked fine until I had to add a configuration change. The image disappears when I change the configuration.
To overcome this problem, I managed a way to get my VideoView (it alternates the view with my ImageView) to save state, but it has different code requirements to save than the image does. Here is what I have so far. I have tried to research solutions, but nothing makes sense to me. Does my code look incomplete?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
Upon further study, the state is saved if I do not rotate the camera while taking a photo. If the starting orientation is the same as the orientation when I come back to the app (after taking photo), then the configuration change within the app works fine. The problem is that if I, say, start in portrait mode, then click the photo button. This takes me to the Android camera. Then I decide I want a landscape photo after all, so I rotate it then snap the photo. I press okay, which then takes me back to the app. Once I arrive, since I'm now in landscape mode, my ImageView is blank.
Also: I did a log on the mImageBitmap inside of onSaveInstanceState & onRestoreInstanceState and they both are null. But why? Maybe because the bitmap is not created until it comes back from the camera? Then how am I supposed to save it on a configuration change? So confused.
My two saving state methods:
#Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
outState.putParcelable(BITMAP_STORAGE_KEY, mImageBitmap);
outState.putParcelable(VIDEO_STORAGE_KEY, mVideoUri);
outState.putBoolean(IMAGEVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY, (mImageBitmap != null) );
outState.putBoolean(VIDEOVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY, (mVideoUri != null) );
if (mVideoUri != null) {
// use onSaveInstanceState in order to store the video or photo
outState.putInt("PositionVideo", mVideoView.getCurrentPosition());
// playback position for orientation change
mVideoView.pause();
}
// super should be last in this method
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}
#Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
mImageBitmap = savedInstanceState.getParcelable(BITMAP_STORAGE_KEY);
mVideoUri = savedInstanceState.getParcelable(VIDEO_STORAGE_KEY);
mImageView.setImageBitmap(mImageBitmap);
mImageView.setVisibility(
savedInstanceState.getBoolean(IMAGEVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY) ?
ImageView.VISIBLE : ImageView.INVISIBLE
);
mVideoView.setVideoURI(mVideoUri);
mVideoView.setVisibility(
savedInstanceState.getBoolean(VIDEOVIEW_VISIBILITY_STORAGE_KEY) ?
ImageView.VISIBLE : ImageView.INVISIBLE
);
if (mVideoUri != null) {
// for video, restores position it was playing
position = savedInstanceState.getInt("PositionVideo");
mVideoView.seekTo(position);
}
}

Have you tried to save the bitmap into SD card directly?
Maybe you can use a flag, that indicates if the image is stored to load it when you return to your activity.
I think that onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState is not thiked to save possible huge amount of date like bitmaps.

Error saving video Uri to SD card

I am trying to save a video from VideoView to the SD card, by touching the VideoView. No errors in LogCat, but my Toast I set up says "Error during video saving", which tells me my boolean I set up did not get to the part where it's set to true. It must be in the file I/O part. One part that works though, is a directory does get created, but the file itself is not found in the directory, it's empty.
Any mistakes anyone sees?
I will post my two main methods that are important, then below I'll post the whole class.
UPDATE: Here is my working code (changed a couple lines in the saveVideo method.)
// save your video to SD card
protected void saveVideo(final Uri uriVideo){
// click the video to save it
mVideoView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
boolean success = false;
// make the directory
File vidDir = new File(android.os.Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory
(Environment.DIRECTORY_MOVIES) + File.separator + "Saved iCute Videos");
vidDir.mkdirs();
// create unique identifier
Random generator = new Random();
int n = 100;
n = generator.nextInt(n);
// create file name
String videoName = "Video_" + n + ".mp4";
File fileVideo = new File(vidDir.getAbsolutePath(), videoName);
try {
fileVideo.createNewFile();
success = true;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if (success) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Video saved!",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),

}
return true;
}

My dispatchTakeVideoIntent() method. I commented out some code that might be needed... I kept getting a null pointer though on fileUri line (was it from fileUri or fileVideo?), so not sure why.
// Captures video from Android camera component
protected void dispatchTakeVideoIntent() {
Intent takeVideoIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE);
if (takeVideoIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
// // set name of video

// set the video image quality to high
takeVideoIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY, 1);
startActivityForResult(takeVideoIntent, ACTION_TAKE_VIDEO);

Capturing a picture and than displaying within an ImageView - Android

Hey guys I am using my webcam to simulate a camera in the emulator and when I go to take the picture and select the check mark button to use the picture I run across an error while trying to display the image back into my ImageView on the app.
Here is my code:
Initiator:
Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
function....
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
//OI FILE Manager
filemanagerstring = selectedImageUri.getPath();
//MEDIA GALLERY
selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);
img.setImageURI(selectedImageUri);
imagePath.getBytes();
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath);
Log.w("Here","error");
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath);
ImageView image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.gimg1);
image.setImageBitmap(bm);
} else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED){
}
}
}
I run across a runtime error
Suggestions and thoughts are needed!

You can use the following codes. It's fully functional and allows you set image from both your camera and gallery as well. I am almost sure that your runtime error is "OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget" as I am seeing that you have loaded the captured image directly to your imageView. You should scale it , please take a look at the method called GetScaledBitmap in my following code. Hope your codes will work ok if you use that method only when you load the image to your imageview. Full example is done for you , Hope it helps.

You were calling data.getData() whereas it should have been data.getExtra("data") as data is an intent which you will have put the bitmap

Image sd card path from intent gallery

I am starting gallery through intent otherwise its giving problem to display gallery in grid view.
But i want the actual sd card path of the image i am selection from the gallery, opened by intent.
here is the code..
Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
photoPickerIntent.setType("image/jpg");
photoPickerIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/Pictures/image.jpg"));
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, 1);
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
showToast(this,"Activity cancelled");
return;
}
else if(resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
System.out.println("requestCode--"+requestCode);
System.out.println("resultCode--"+resultCode);
System.out.println("data--"+intent.getData());
Uri uri = intent.getData();
String data = uri.getPath();
System.out.println("uri.getPath()--"+uri.getPath());
System.out.println("type--"+intent.getType());
System.out.println("path--"+Environment.getExternalStorageState());
return;
}
switch (requestCode) {
case CAMERA_ACTIVITY:
Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
Bitmap bm = (Bitmap) b.get("data");
// mImageView.setImageBitmap(bm); // Display image in the View
// large image?
if (b.containsKey(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT)) { // large image?
Log.i(TAG, "This is a large image");
showToast(this,"Large image");
// Should have to do nothing for big images -- should already saved in MediaStore ... but
MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), bm, null, null);
}
else {
Log.i(TAG, "This is a small image");
showToast(this,"Small image");
MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), bm, null, null);
}
break;
}
}
}
I am getting all data from intent object. But i want the sd card path for the image what i am selecting to upload that image in server..
how do i get that?

You may want something like this:
Uri uri = (Uri) intent.getExtras().get("android.intent.extra.STREAM");
if ( intent.getAction().equals( Intent.ACTION_SEND ) )
{
if ( uri.getScheme().equals("content"))
{
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query( uri, null, null, null, null );
cursor.moveToFirst();
filePath = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(Images.Media.DATA));
}
}

This Code may help you
This code will pop up one Dialog Box with Camera and gallery and devices SD card to get the images path.
