        Log.d("" + imgUri, " here it is");


        InputStream PIS;


            try {

                PIS = getContentResolver().openInputStream(imgUri);
                 mImage = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(PIS);


            } catch (Exception e){

                Log.d("go home you're drunk "+e,"");
            Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, ""+e, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);

you can see i have the uri on my imgUri , don't know what am doing wrong or missing if anybody knows what am missing than please correct me thanks :)

am using genyMotion emulator is it the cause of problem ?

so do that and you will know what `Uri schema`s are supported — pskink, Jan 19 '16 at 10:34
errrr, what is what? see [uri](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Identifier#Syntax) syntax — pskink, Jan 19 '16 at 10:37

Append this permissions into your AndroidManifest.xml file

 <uses-permission 
        android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

and use

Uri imgUri = Uri.parse("file://"+getIntent().getExtras().getString("imageUri"));

The best is to use Uri mUri=Uri.fromFile(new File(yourpath)); – Arslan Maqbool Aug 07 '17 at 05:07
