                {
                    Log.e("Mp3 ", " ends with ");

                    {
                        int  scalFactor  = fixHeight / h ;
                        newWidth = (int)( w * scalFactor);
                        Log.e("scalFactor "," = " + scalFactor);
                        Log.e("newWidth "," = " + newWidth);
                        Log.e("resizing...  ","in if condition");
                        new_Height = fixHeight ;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        newWidth = w;
                        new_Height = h;
                    }


                    Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(new File(objElement));
                    Picasso.with(getContext()).load(uri).resize(newWidth, new_Height).placeholder(R.drawable.img_placeholder).into(imageView , new com.squareup.picasso.Callback() {
                        @Override
                        public void onSuccess() {
                            if (pBar != null) {
                                pBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                            }
                        }
                        @Override
                        public void onError() {

                        }
                    });
                }

                holder.linearLayout.addView(imageView);
                holder.linearLayout.addView(pBar);

Here is log information

Answer 1

try this. inside your if (objElement.endsWith(png_Pattern))

  BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
  options.inPreferredConfig = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888;
  Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(objElement, options);

Answer 2

Try replacing Bitmap bitmapSize = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(objElement); with

  File file = new File(objElement);
  if (file.exists()) {
     Bitmap bitmapSize = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(file.getAbsolutePath());
  }
