    Intent intent = new Intent(
            android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
        startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    }
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
        final Intent data) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
        im.setImageDrawable(null);
        im.destroyDrawingCache();
        Bundle extras = data.getExtras();

Answer 3

do you have the following declarations in your manifest ?:

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" />

?? I used to do the same... here is my call to intent:

File file = new File( _path );
    Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile( file );

    Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE );
    intent.putExtra( MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri );
    intent.putExtra( MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY,1);

the only slight difference between my and your code - I have file path in URI sending among call

            cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
                    Uri.fromFile(photo));
            imageUri = Uri.fromFile(photo);
            startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, IMAGE_CAMERA_REQUEST);}


2:-



        @Override
            public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
                super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
                try {

                    if (requestCode == IMAGE_CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                        Uri selectedImage = imageUri;
                        getActivity().getContentResolver().notifyChange(selectedImage, null);
                        ContentResolver contentResolver = getActivity().getContentResolver();
                        Bitmap bitmap;
                        try {
                            bitmap = android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media
                                    .getBitmap(contentResolver, selectedImage);

                            imageDialog(bitmap);
                        } catch (Exception e) {

                            Log.e("Camera", e.toString());
                        }

                    }
    }
    }}
