Getting path of captured image in Android using camera intent

Question

I have been trying to get path of captured image in order to delete image. Found many answers on StackOverflow but none of them are working for me. I got the following answer:

private String getLastImagePath() {     final String[] imageColumns = { MediaStore.Images.Media._ID,             MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };     final String imageOrderBy = MediaStore.Images.Media._ID + " DESC";     Cursor imageCursor = POS.this.getContentResolver().query(             MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, imageColumns,             null, null, imageOrderBy);     if (imageCursor.moveToFirst()) {         // int id = imageCursor.getInt(imageCursor         // .getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media._ID));         String fullPath = imageCursor.getString(imageCursor                 .getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA));         return fullPath;     } else {         return "";     } } 

This code works in Samsung tab but doesn't work in Lenovo tab and i-ball tab. So, can anyone help me find another solution to do the same? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

This is my onActivityResult:

if (requestCode == CmsInter.CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {     //Bitmap photo = null;     //photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");      String txt = "";     if (im != null) {         String result = "";         //im.setImageBitmap(photo);         im.setTag("2");         int index = im.getId();         String path = getLastImagePath();         try {             bitmap1 = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path, options);             bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap1, 512, 400, false);             ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();             bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, baos);             byte[] bytData = baos.toByteArray();             try {                 baos.close();             } catch (IOException e) {                 e.printStackTrace();             }             result = Base64.encode(bytData);             bytData = null;         } catch (OutOfMemoryError ooM) {             System.out.println("OutOfMemory Exception----->" + ooM);             bitmap1.recycle();             bitmap.recycle();         } finally {             bitmap1.recycle();             bitmap.recycle();         }     } }

Try like this

Pass Camera Intent like below

    Intent intent = new Intent(this);     startActivityForResult(intent, REQ_CAMERA_IMAGE); 

And after capturing image Write an OnActivityResult as below

    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {           if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {             Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");              imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);             knop.setVisibility(Button.VISIBLE);                       // CALL THIS METHOD TO GET THE URI FROM THE BITMAP             Uri tempUri = getImageUri(getApplicationContext(), photo);                  // CALL THIS METHOD TO GET THE ACTUAL PATH             File finalFile = new File(getRealPathFromURI(tempUri));                  System.out.println(mImageCaptureUri);         }       }          public Uri getImageUri(Context inContext, Bitmap inImage) {         ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();         inImage.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);         String path = Images.Media.insertImage(inContext.getContentResolver(), inImage, "Title", null);         return Uri.parse(path);     }          public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri uri) {         String path = "";         if (getContentResolver() != null) {             Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null);             if (cursor != null) {                 cursor.moveToFirst();                 int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);                 path = cursor.getString(idx);                 cursor.close();             }         }         return path;     } 

And check log.

Edit:

Lots of people are asking how to not get a thumbnail. You need to add this code instead for the getImageUri method:

     public Uri getImageUri(Context inContext, Bitmap inImage) {         Bitmap OutImage = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(inImage, 1000, 1000,true);         String path = MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(inContext.getContentResolver(), OutImage, "Title", null);         return Uri.parse(path);     } 

The other method Compresses the file. You can adjust the size by changing the number 1000,1000
