Android - Image Picker, Wrong Image

Sometimes the thumbnails in the gallery app can be outdated and show thumbnails for a different image. This can happen when the image ids are reused, for example when an image gets deleted and a new one is added using the same id.

Manage Apps > Gallery > Clear Data can fix this problem then.

This is the code to open gallery. However this the same what you have done. Also see the onActivityResult code which I used to retrive the selected image.

Intent intent = new Intent();intent.setType("image/*");intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"),                         PHOTO_GALLERY);@Overrideprotected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {switch (requestCode) {    case PHOTO_GALLERY:        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {            Uri selectedImageUri = Uri.parse(data.getDataString());            try {                Bitmap bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(                                     getApplicationContext().getContentResolver(),                                      selectedImageUri);                this.postImagePreview.setImageBitmap( bitmap);            } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {                // TODO Auto-generated catch block                e.printStackTrace();            } catch (IOException e) {                // TODO Auto-generated catch block                e.printStackTrace();            }            break;        }    }}

private static int RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE = 1;

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);    startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);

OnActivity Result

  @Override        protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {            super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);            if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data) {                Uri selectedImage = data.getData();                String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };                Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,filePathColumn, null, null, null);                cursor.moveToFirst();                int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);                String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);                cursor.close();                ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgView);                imageView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(picturePath));            }        }
