    startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,"Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);


    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {  


    switch(requestCode){

Answer 1

Try to use

.... 
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
    intent.setType("image/*");
    startActivityForResult(intent, SELECT_PICTURE);
....

Answer 2

Try using this for your intent:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,"Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);

If you are wanting to always use the stock Gallery Application I don' think you need to use an Intent Chooser so you might be able to change your startActivity to this:

startActivityForResult(intent, SELECT_PICTURE);
