Android external sdCard DCIM folder path

Question

I need the DCIM folder path from the external sdCard if it is present. I have observed that this path changes according to the manufacturer of the device ("/storage/extSdCard", "/storage/SdCard", "mnt/storage/extSdCard", ...)

Is there any Android api that would give me the path irrespective of the device?

Answer 1

Try out with

String m_path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
            Environment.DIRECTORY_DCIM).getAbsolutePath();
