Get real path from URI, Android KitKat new storage access framework [duplicate]

Answer 1

We need to do the following changes/fixes in our earlier onActivityResult()'s gallery picker code to run seamlessly on Android 4.4 (KitKat) and on all other earlier versions as well.

Uri selectedImgFileUri = data.getData();

if (selectedImgFileUri == null ) {

    // The user has not selected any photo
}

try {

   InputStream input = mActivity.getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedImgFileUri);
   mSelectedPhotoBmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);
}
catch (Throwable tr) {

    // Show message to try again
}
