Answer 1

I also wanted Intent for picking multiple images in android but I failed.I came across custom gallery with custom theme.

Look at here MultipleImagePick to pick single image and to pick multiple image and also you can change theme according to your app.

Thanks @sunshine for guiding me to limit maximum images selection.

in CustomGalleryActivity.java 

AdapterView.OnItemClickListener mItemMulClickListener = new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> l, View v, int position, long id) {
            if (adapter.getSelected().size() >= MAX_IMAGE_SELECTION_LENGTH) {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "maximum items selected", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            } else {
                adapter.changeSelection(v, position);
            }

        }
    };

You need to add this to your manifest:

        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND_MULTIPLE" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <data android:mimeType="image/*" />
        </intent-filter>

I found this post to be extremely helpful, it explains how to also retrieve the images.
