 public class Test extends AppCompatActivity { private static final int SELECT_PICTURE = 0; private ImageView imageView; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_test); imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(android.R.id.icon); } @Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) { Bitmap bitmap = getPath(data.getData()); imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap); } } private Bitmap getPath(Uri uri) { String[] projection = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA}; Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null); int column_index = cursor .getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA); cursor.moveToFirst(); String filePath = cursor.getString(column_index); // cursor.close(); // Convert file path into bitmap image using below line. Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath); return bitmap; } private void selectImage() { Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setType("image/*"); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE); } }
