Loading image from external storage(gallery/camera)

[fistuk]

Hi, When im trying to load an image from gallery or camera, im getting the following uri: /storage/emulated/0/Download/caffeine-crystals-big.jpg

To properly use UIL im constructing the following uri: file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/caffeine-crystals-big.jpg

While trying to load the image im getting the following errors:

E/JHEAD﹕ can't open 'file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/caffeine-crystals-big.jpg' E/BitmapFactory﹕ Unable to decode stream: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /file:/storage/emulated/0/Download/caffeine-crystals-big.jpg: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

On the other hand BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath) works perfectly with the same uri.

When using: ImageView stub = (ImageView) getView().findViewById(R.id.stubImage); ImageLoader.getInstance().displayImage(path, stub);

Everything works fine, but when using the following: ImageSize targetSize = new ImageSize(600, 600); ImageLoader.getInstance().loadImage(path, targetSize, new SimpleImageLoadingListener() { @Override public void onLoadingComplete(String imageUri, View view, Bitmap loadedImage) {

        }
    });

Im getting the errors mentioned above.

That's really weird. Are you sure you use correct URI in both cases?

[yorkwang]

Meet the same problem.

[yorkwang]

Got it, the uri should be like this: String uri = "file://" + localImagePath;

[amarkovits]

What does localImagePath mean?

I think I'm seeing the same issue:

Code snippet:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT).setType("image/*");
activity.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_PICK);

 public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent result) {
   String uri = result.getData();
   ImageLoader.getInstance().loadImage(uri.toString(), size, options, new ImageLoadingListener() {
      // ...
   });

I get this for a number of URI patterns:

/storage/emulated/0/TheFileConverter/Michael%20Lowe%203.gif: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

I wonder if this might solve it:

Uri uri = Uri.parse(fileURI);
File pdf = new File(uri.getPath());

From: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19772856/getting-file-from-sdcard-with-uri

[alexblack]

I can reproduce this on an LG Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.4. It happens when I use "Choose a file", see attached.

[alexblack]

I found a work around. The original URI is this one:

file:///storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.dropbox.android/files/u13228039/scratch/Photos/2013-Feb%20Hannah/D71_0252.jpg

It failed to load using UniversalImageLoader, with FileNotFoundException. BitmapFactory.decodeFile loads it just fine.

If I then use https://github.com/iPaulPro/aFileChooser/blob/master/aFileChooser/src/com/ipaulpro/afilechooser/utils/FileUtils.java#L257 to get a filepath, then I get this uri:

file:///storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.dropbox.android/files/u13228039/scratch/Photos/2013-Feb Hannah/D71_0252.jpg

(Same URI, but it has a space in it instead of %20, so I guess it just got decoded)

Then it works fine with UniversalImageLoader. So I first send the URI to UIL, then if it fails, I use getPath, then try again :)

      public void onLoadingFailed(final String imageUri, final View view, final FailReason failReason) {
        // Try falling back if we fail to find the image
        if (failReason.getCause() != null && failReason.getCause() instanceof FileNotFoundException) {
          Log.d(TAG, "Falling back to FilePickerUtils.getPath: " + uri);
          String path = FilePickerUtils.getPath(ctx, Uri.parse(uri));
          final String fallbackUri = "file://" + path;
          Log.d(TAG, "FilePickerUtils.getPath result: " + path);

          ImageLoader.getInstance().loadImage(fallbackUri, size, options, new ImageLoadingListener() {

[alexblack]

I filed this as a separate issue, it looks like UIL doesn't support encoded URIs.

https://github.com/nostra13/Android-Universal-Image-Loader/issues/1105

[alexiscanny]

Maybe is late but I fixed my issue with "bitmap=BitmapFactory.decodeFile(uri);" The crazy thing is that I didn't need to put "file://" bcos BitmapFactory accept straight way "/storage/emulated/......../bla.jpeg"

[engr-erum]

what's the solution ? i m getting same issue even using same uri in both cases

[WajidAli007]

@yorkwang Thanks for the solution, it really worked! I was just missing this: "file://" before Uriand nothing was working, now its working like a charm.
