Click Image By Phone Camera and set to ImageView in Original Quality

i tried to set on imageview with original quality but the image get compressed.
please help me to set image in imageview with original quality.
ImageView imageView;
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1888;
Bitmap photo;
uploadImg.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
});
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {
if(data!=null) {
photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
}
}
}

Try using glide, first in your gradle add dependency
compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide.3.7.0'
And use this code to get capture images
values = new ContentValues();
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.TITLE, "New Picture");
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.DESCRIPTION, "From your Camera");
imageUri = getContentResolver().insert(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageUri);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICTURE_RESULT);
And then in onActivityResult
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
switch (requestCode) {
case PICTURE_RESULT:
if (requestCode == PICTURE_RESULT)
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
try {
thumbnail = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(
getContentResolver(), imageUri);
imgView.setImageBitmap(thumbnail);
imageurl = getRealPathFromURI(imageUri);
Imageview imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.image_view);
Glide.with(this).load(imageurl).into(imageView);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
And to get the path of image
public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentUri) {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}

Captured image does not display on ImageView

In my Activity A, there is an ImageView and a Button. When the button is clicked, it goes to activeTakePhoto(). The imgUri gets displayed but nothing is displayed in my ImageView.
private void activeTakePhoto() {
Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
String fileName = "temp.jpg";
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.TITLE, fileName);
mCapturedImageURI = getContentResolver()
.insert(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
values);
takePictureIntent
.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mCapturedImageURI);
startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode) {
case RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE:
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE &&
resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data) {
Uri selectedImage = data.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 picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
}
case REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE:
if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE &&
resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
File picture = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/temp.jpg");
ImageView imgView=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
Uri imgUri=Uri.fromFile(picture);
imgView.setImageURI(imgUri);
Toast.makeText(getApplication(),imgUri+"",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}

You can try this code,it may help:
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v == imgCamera) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "open camera", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
}//on click
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
Log.e("RESULT CODE", "--" + resultCode);
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Bitmap thumbnail = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
thumbnail.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, bytes);
//to generate random file name
String fileName = "tempimg.jpg";
try {
Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
//captured image set in imageview
imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

in activeTakePhoto
Replace
String fileName = "temp.jpg";
with
fileName=Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/temp.jpg"

Low picture/image quality when capture from camera

I have one problem. When I try to get picture from camera, the quality is very low.
At first, capture the picture using camera, than save to the directory and at the same time get that picture and show in my app.The picture saved inside directory is a fine quality but when I get it from directory, the quality is low. below is my sample code :
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
if (requestCode == CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST) {
Bitmap thumbnail = (Bitmap) intent.getExtras().get("data");
if (g==1)
{
ImageView myImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.img5);
myImage.setImageBitmap(thumbnail);
View a = findViewById(R.id.img5);
a.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
thumbnail.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, stream);
byteArray1 = stream.toByteArray();
}
}
any solution/suggestion?
Thanks :)
Solved
The problem solved when I follow the code given by Antrromet below

I have used the following code and this works perfectly fine for me.
values = new ContentValues();
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.TITLE, "New Picture");
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.DESCRIPTION, "From your Camera");
imageUri = getContentResolver().insert(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageUri);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICTURE_RESULT);
and also
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
switch (requestCode) {
case PICTURE_RESULT:
if (requestCode == PICTURE_RESULT)
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
try {
thumbnail = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(
getContentResolver(), imageUri);
imgView.setImageBitmap(thumbnail);
imageurl = getRealPathFromURI(imageUri);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
and
public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentUri) {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}

I will give you something that work for me. I asked the same !

how to get image name using camera intent in android?

I want to show camera's current take image using like given this code.I can get image from camera and display in imageview.I want to know that image's file name.
Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE );
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode)
{
case 2:
{
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK)
{
Bitmap thumbnail = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
mg_view.setImageBitmap(thumbnail);
}
break;
}
}
}
How can i get image name?please help friends,
Thanks Friends

In your activity (called YourActivity):
public static int TAKE_IMAGE = 111;
Uri mCapturedImageURI;
Somewhere call the camera!
try {
String fileName = "temp.jpg";
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.TITLE, fileName);
mCapturedImageURI = getContentResolver()
.insert(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
values);
Intent intent = new Intent(
MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
mCapturedImageURI);
startActivityForResult(intent, TAKE_IMAGE);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("", "", e);
}
Now in the Activity result (notice capturedImageFilePath)
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent intent) {
if ((requestCode == YourActivity.TAKE_IMAGE)
&& (resultCode == RESULT_OK)) {
mode = MODE_VIEWER;
String[] projection = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(mCapturedImageURI, projection, null,
null, null);
int column_index_data = cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
//THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT!
String capturedImageFilePath = cursor.getString(column_index_data);
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(capturedImageFilePath);
}
}

sample code. May be it is useful to you.
Uri mUri;
Intent intent = new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
mUri = Uri.fromFile(new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "imgnm_"+ String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis())+ ".jpg"));
intent.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,mUri);
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CAMERA_IMAGE);
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == PICK_CAMERA_IMAGE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
String path = mUri.getPath();
if (path.length() > 0) {
String filepath = path;
String filename = filepath.substring(filepath.lastIndexOf("/") + 1,filepath.length());
String filetype = ".jpg";
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filepath);
mg_view.setImageBitmap(bm);
}
}
}

Try this code,
Log.d("ANDRO_CAMERA", "Starting camera on the phone...");
String fileName = "testphoto.jpg";
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.TITLE, fileName);
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.DESCRIPTION,
"Image capture by camera");
values.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/jpeg");
imageUri = getContentResolver().insert(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageUri);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY, 1);
startActivityForResult(intent, IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == IMAGE_CAPTURE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK){
Log.d("ANDRO_CAMERA","Picture taken!!!");
imageView.setImageURI(imageUri);
}
}
}
}

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);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
"Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);
}
});
}
//UPDATED
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == SELECT_PICTURE) {
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
//OI FILE Manager
filemanagerstring = selectedImageUri.getPath();
//MEDIA GALLERY
selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);
img.setImageURI(selectedImageUri);
imagePath.getBytes();
TextView txt = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.title);
txt.setText(imagePath.toString());
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath);
// img1.setImageBitmap(bm);
}
}
}
//UPDATED!
public String getPath(Uri uri) {
String[] projection = { MediaColumns.DATA };
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
column_index = cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaColumns.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
imagePath = cursor.getString(column_index);
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}
}

public class BrowsePictureActivity extends Activity {
private static final int SELECT_PICTURE = 1;
private String selectedImagePath;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
((Button) findViewById(R.id.Button01))
.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
"Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);
}
});
}
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == SELECT_PICTURE) {
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);
}
}
}
public String getPath(Uri uri) {
if( uri == null ) {
return null;
}
// this will only work for images selected from gallery
String[] projection = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(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();
}
}

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
