Answer 1

This worked for me,

override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)

        if(requestCode == 1 && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK && data != null) {

            val selectedPhotoUri = data.data
            try {
                selectedPhotoUri?.let {
                    if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 28) {
                        val bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(
                            this.contentResolver,
                            selectedPhotoUri
                        )
                        imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap)
                    } else {
                        val source = ImageDecoder.createSource(this.contentResolver, selectedPhotoUri)
                        val bitmap = ImageDecoder.decodeBitmap(source)
                        imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap)
                    }
                }
            } catch (e: Exception) {
                e.printStackTrace()
            }
        }
    }

This worked well for me in java

ImageDecoder.Source source = ImageDecoder.createSource(this.getContentResolver(), pictureUri);
Bitmap bitmap = ImageDecoder.decodeBitmap(source);

Answer 3

You can use:

    private fun getCapturedImage(selectedPhotoUri: Uri): Bitmap {
        val bitmap = when {
            Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 28 -> MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(
                this.contentResolver,
                selectedPhotoUri
            )
            else -> {
                val source = ImageDecoder.createSource(this.contentResolver, selectedPhotoUri)
                ImageDecoder.decodeBitmap(source)
            }
        }

Check the official doc:

This method was deprecated in API level 29. loading of images should be performed through ImageDecoder#createSource(ContentResolver, Uri), which offers modern features like PostProcessor.
