How to get the path of a video which is selected from gallery on android 10

I tried lot of snippets. This is what I'm using now. I know that MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA is deprecated.somehow this method is working on android 10 as well but sometimes it throws
android.database.CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 0 requested, with a size of 0
public static String getvideoPath(Context context, Uri uri) {
try {
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String document_id = cursor.getString(0);
LogMessage.v("Document Id:: "+document_id);
if(document_id!=null){
document_id = document_id.substring(document_id.lastIndexOf(":") + 1);
cursor.close();
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(
MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
null, MediaStore.Video.Media._ID + " = ? ", new String[]{document_id}, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String path = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA));
cursor.close();
return path;
}else
return getPath(context,uri);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return getPath(context,uri);
}
}
private static String getPath(Context context,Uri uri){
try {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, proj, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String document_id = cursor.getString(0);
return document_id;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();

To launch
val intent = Intent(ACTION_GET_CONTENT)
intent.apply {

addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE)
}
resultLauncher.launch(intent)
and you can get the result in your acivity
private val resultLauncher = registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult()) { result ->
if (result.resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
var file: File? = null
val disposable = Single.fromCallable {

}, {
it.printStackTrace()
})
}
}

You will not try yo convert an uri to a file system path in Android 10.
Even if you manage the path is mostly not accessable.
You are not a regular reader of stackoverflow pages are you?

Cannot show in ImageView a picture exported from the gallery

I am creating an Android application that needs to store some multimedia files in the internal storage. The user can choose that multimedia files from the picker. Those files must be available even when the user removes them, so they are copied to the internal storage.
Here's my code:
final Bitmap bitm = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap( this.getContentResolver(), uri );
final int bitmapRawLength = bitm.getAllocationByteCount();
final ByteBuffer byteBuffer = ByteBuffer.allocate( bitmapRawLength );
bitm.copyPixelsToBuffer( byteBuffer );
data = byteBuffer.array();
final ByteArrayInputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream( data );
db.store( in );
So, the bytes composing the image are copied into an average file inside the internal store through an InputStream. Apparently it works, since the file has contents.
Later the image is loaded in an ImageView:
private void loadImage(File imgFile)
{
if ( imgFile.exists() ) {
final Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile( mediaFile.getPath() );
this.ivPictureBox.setImageBitmap( bitmap );
} else {
this.abortDueToMissingFile( imgFile );
}
return;
}
Unfortunately, this does not work. When it is time to load that image, the ImageView goes blank, nothing is shown.
Actually, in the log appears the following message:
D/skia: --- Failed to create image decoder with message 'unimplemented'
If I use the file explorer in Android Studio and export the image to my computer, then GwenView fails with the message "Failed to load metadata".
How can I correctly store the image, with the complete information, or show it correctly, whatever is easier or feasible?

I have develop and test some code in this case. I hope it helps you.
Defining request codes:
private static final int REQUEST_CODE_KITKAT_PICK_PHOTO = 11;
private static final int REQUEST_CODE_PICK_PHOTO = 12;
To call image picker:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 19) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Choose a photo"), REQUEST_CODE_PICK_PHOTO);
} else {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE_KITKAT_PICK_PHOTO);
}
To receive the picked image and copy it, in your Activity:
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_PICK_PHOTO) {

try {

} catch (IOException e) {

}
if (imageFile != null) {
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imageFile.getAbsolutePath());

} else if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_KITKAT_PICK_PHOTO) {

return;
}

It is as simple as:

This works for URI's with both SCHEME_CONTENT and SCHEME_FILE schemes.

FileNotFoundException when importing file from storage (Android Studio)

For the past couple of days, I've been trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Whenever the user uploads a file (non-image), and I try to convert the URI object into a file and then into a byte array, I get this error:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /document/2301 (No such file or directory)
I had obviously uploaded something because it was showing me some sort of path. Here is my code:

Use the below code to browse the file in any format.
public void browseClick() {

} catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("browseClick :"+ex);//android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex

Then get that file path in the onActivityResult like below.

} else {
String mimeType = getContentResolver().getType(uri);
if (mimeType == null) {
String path = getPath(this, uri);
if (path == null) {

}
File fileSave = getExternalFilesDir(null);

try {
copyFileStream(new File(sourcePath + "/" + filename), uri,this);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();

After this you can open this file from your application external storage where you saved the file with appropriate action.

Creating a file from picking an image from MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE

I'm allowing the user to pick an image from their photo gallery:
Intent pickIntent = new Intent();
pickIntent.setType("image/*");
pickIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
Intent takePhotoIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
String pickTitle = "Select or take a new Picture"; // Or get from strings.xml
Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(pickIntent, pickTitle);
chooserIntent.putExtra
(
Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS,
new Intent[] { takePhotoIntent }
);
startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, SELECT_PICTURE);
And in onActivityResult I want to create a new File from the selected image. Here is what I am doing:
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == 1 && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (data == null) {
return;
}
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
File mediaFile = new File(selectedImageUri.getPath());
if(!mediaFile.exists())
Log.d("File", "File doesn't exist");
}
}
My check mediaFile.exists() is returning false. What am I doing wrong here?
Update
I tried doing this as well:
String fullPath = getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageUri);
with this method from enter link description here question:
public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentUri) {
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
return null;
}
However, this method returns null.

Add this class to your project.
public class RealPathUtil {
#SuppressLint("NewApi")
public static String getRealPathFromURI_API19(Context context, Uri uri){
String filePath = "";
String wholeID = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri);
// Split at colon, use second item in the array
String id = wholeID.split(":")[1];
String[] column = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
// where id is equal to
String sel = MediaStore.Images.Media._ID + "=?";
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
column, sel, new String[]{ id }, null);
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(column[0]);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
filePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
}
cursor.close();
return filePath;
}
#SuppressLint("NewApi")
public static String getRealPathFromURI_API11to18(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
String result = null;
CursorLoader cursorLoader = new CursorLoader(
context,
contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
Cursor cursor = cursorLoader.loadInBackground();
if(cursor != null){
int column_index =
cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
result = cursor.getString(column_index);
}
return result;
}
public static String getRealPathFromURI_BelowAPI11(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}
}
and get image path from uri using relative method of android api.
EDIT :: Check SDK Version of your phone
And get path using
int version = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
String fullPath;
if(version >= 19) {
//call api 19 code here
fullPath = getRealPathFromURI_API19(this, uri);
} else if(version <= 18 && version >= 11) {
// call api 11-18 code here
fullPath = getRealPathFromURI_API11to18(this, uri);
} else {
// call below api 11 code here
fullPath = getRealPathFromURI_BelowAPI11(this, uri);
}
File mediaFile = new File(fullPath);

how to get photo_uri from photo_id

I go through the addressbook and try to get all contacts' photos which are not null.
I'm using android API8, so i cannot query for image_uri.
given photo_id (API 5), how can i get the photo bitmap?
here is my query:
public final static String[] PROJECTION2 = new String[] {
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.RAW_CONTACT_ID,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.PHOTO_ID
};
public static void fillAddressBookData() {
String sHash = null;
String where = ContactsContract.Contacts.IN_VISIBLE_GROUP + "= ? ";
String[] selectionArgs = new String[] {"1"};
Cursor cursor =
AppService
.getAppContext()
.getContentResolver()
.query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, PROJECTION2, where,
selectionArgs, null);
...

try this:
private void GetImageByPhoneNumber(String number)
{
Uri uri1 = Uri.withAppendedPath(PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI,
Uri.encode(number));
Cursor test = getContentResolver().query(uri1,
new String[] { "photo_uri" }, null, null,
null);
if (test.getCount() > 0) {
test.moveToFirst();
Uri photoUri = Uri.parse(test.getString(test
.getColumnIndexOrThrow("photo_uri"))));
Bitmap image = getPhoto(context , photoUri);
}
test.close();
}
and getPhoto:
public static Bitmap getPhoto(Context context , Uri uri){
Bitmap bm = null;
try {
bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(context.getContentResolver()
.openInputStream(uri));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if (bm == null) {
bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),
R.drawable.default_user_avatar);
}
return bm;
}

Try the next code snippet, it should do the trick
public Uri getPhotoUri(long contactId) {
ContentResolver contentResolver = getContentResolver();
try {
Cursor cursor = contentResolver
.query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_ID
+ "="
+ contactId
+ " AND "
+ ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE
+ "='"
+ ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
+ "'", null, null);
if (cursor != null) {
if (!cursor.moveToFirst()) {
return null; // no photo
}
} else {
return null; // error in cursor process
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
Uri person = ContentUris.withAppendedId(
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, contactId);
return Uri.withAppendedPath(person,
ContactsContract.Contacts.Photo.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
}
