                            // start the image capture Intent

            launchUploadActivity(true);

        } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {

            // user cancelled Image capture
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                    "User cancelled image capture", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                    .show();

        } else {
            // failed to capture image
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                    "Sorry! Failed to capture image", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                    .show();
        }

    Intent i = new Intent(Tab1.this,UploadAvtivity.class);
    i.putExtra("filePath", fileUri.getPath());
    i.putExtra("isImage", isImage);
    startActivity(i);


}

this part of your code is fine. The problem is onActivityResult where you are decoding the file. Please show me your onActivityResult so that I may help you — AnswerDroid, Jun 16 '15 at 07:04

Here is the Code piece for Taking a Picture through Default Camera (here I implemented Intent to to fetch the image). After that store it to SD card(here a new file will be created and the newly taken image will be stored ); and if you don't want to store then remove the saving part from code. After that you can use the file path for your upload purpose. You can then refer it and change to get the path as your wish.

In the class area put these lines

final int TAKE_PHOTO_REQ = 100;
String file_path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
            + "/recent.jpg";//Here recent.jpg is your image name which will going to take

After that invoke the camera by putting these line in calling method.

Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, TAKE_PHOTO_REQ);

then add this method in your Activity to get the picture and save it to sd card and you can invoke your upload method from here to upload the image by knowing its path.

@Override
    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
        switch (requestCode) {
        case TAKE_PHOTO_REQ: {
            if (resultCode == TakePicture.RESULT_OK && data != null) {

                Bitmap srcBmp = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");

                // ... (process image  if necesary)

                imageView.setImageBitmap(srcBmp);
                ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                srcBmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 40, bytes);

                // you can create a new file name "test.jpg" in sdcard folder.
                File f = new File(file_path);
                try {
                    f.createNewFile();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
                // write the bytes in file
                FileOutputStream fo = null;
                try {
                    fo = new FileOutputStream(f);
                } catch (FileNotFoundException e1) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e1.printStackTrace();
                }
                try {
                    fo.write(bytes.toByteArray());
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }

                // remember close de FileOutput
                try {
                    fo.close();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
                Log.e("take-img", "Image Saved to sd card...");
                // Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                // "Image Saved to sd card...", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                break;
            }
        }
        }
    }

Hope this will be helpful for you and others too .. thanks

my camera capture upload is fine.my problem is in upload image from gallary to server — RushDroid, Jun 16 '15 at 08:59
And `(Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");` is just a thumbnail of the picture taken. So it serves nothing. — greenapps, Jun 16 '15 at 09:26
@Rushabh042 you can use this code to fetch a image path from gallery and upload it to server for that you can use the intent like bellow **Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setType("image/*"); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,"Select Picture from Gallery"), SELECT_PICTURE);** — sahu, Jun 16 '15 at 09:39

`if you don't want to store then remove the saving part from code. After that you can use the file path` this kinda sounds weird or is it just me? You don't have to save but you need a file path? — Hiro, Feb 24 '21 at 16:40
