Well as far as I know . . You can use content providers to get folder paths, or I suggest you use content provider directly to set Images which are in their data base check out

Looks like we have to do this folder listing using java code only. The android "MediaStore.Images.Media._ID " wont be a good approach. It behaves different in different devices. Right now am able to access the folder with ".jpg" files from phone memory only. SD Card folders still at large.

This has been discussed. . We will go with content providers.
