Android : Getting ID Of An Image In MediaStore?

Sep 27, 2010

I'm trying to query the Android's MediaStore.Images.Media to get the images contained in the device. I get my cursor on the DB like this: Code...
and I get the indices of the columns this way:

int dataIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(DATA); ... int idIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media._ID);

unfortunately it seems that the column index idIdx is always -1, which means the column doesn't exist. Am I doing something wrong? Is there anyone else experiencing the same?

Android : How To Force MediaStore To Rescan SD Card

Feb 14, 2009

If I pragmatically store new media files on the SD card, the MediaStore does not know about them until I remove and reinsert the SD card. Is there a way to tell the MediaStore to rescan the SD card without first unmounting the SD card?

Android : MediaStore Setting Photo Name To NULL

Aug 13, 2010

I have an app that allows the user to take and save a new picture using the Intent ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE. After the user accepts the newly taken picture, I create a ContentValue object to set the picture information, and then I insert the picture into the MediaStore and send a broadcast so that the user can see the photo when opening a picture viewer app such as gallery:

ContentValues newImage = new ContentValues(3);

newImage.put(Media.DISPLAY_NAME, mPicName);
newImage.put(Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/png");
newImage.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA, path);
mPictureUri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, newImage);
sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE, mPictureUri));

All of this code works fine. The photo is correctly saved, and I can view the photo using gallery. The problem is that when I view the photo in gallery and select "Details" it shows the photo name as "null." And yes, I know for a fact that the variable mPicName above is not null and always has the correct value.

The odd thing is that, when running my app on my Droid running Android 2.1, when I choose to copy files to/from the phone and my computer, I open up the Droid on my Windows computer, and when I go into my app's created folder for photos and view the new photo, the name is correct. Then, when I disable copying files from the phone/computer and go back into gallery to view the file on my Droid, the name is suddenly correct and is no longer null.

Can someone tell me why the name is null after my code runs, and why the name is correct after viewing the file on my computer rather than on the phone? Is there a way to get the name non-null right when the picture is saved? I'd bet that the name would be correct if I turned my phone off and turned it back on, but I'm not sure how exactly to get force things to work immediately.

General :: Disable Specific App Permission For Specific Or All Apps

I have had androids for over two years now and am getting more and more concerned every time I download an app and seeing that it wants to READ my SMS message and Contacts.

Is there a way I can disable reading of SMS messages or any one of the other permissions by specific apps, or all apps?

Are we living in a world where any "joe schmo" can upload an app the to the app store and wait for those inadvertent downloads and collect all your personal information, and that's after all the time we spend protecting our identity and personal details?

Android :: Out Of Memory Calling MediaStore.Images.Media.get Bit ­map

Apr 15, 2010

After I've used a MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE intent to take a photo, when I try to retrieve the captured image, I sometimes get an out of memory error as shown below. The odd thing is the huge size of the memory trying to be allocated is always reported as 10,077,696 (x99c600). However, the image file is much smaller, typically around 750,000 bytes.Any suggestions on how to get around this problem? I'm testing this on a Nexus One with firmware version: 2.1-update1 and Build number: ERE27. Code...

Android : Mediastore Thumbnails Not Generated Until Gallery App Is Launched?

Is that normal that Images indexed in the MediaStore do not have thumbnails generated until the Gallery app is launched and the user actively navigates to the bucket where the image is stored ?

I think it's quite odd as I thought thulbnails generation was part of media indexing.

Android : Find Orientation Of A Picture Taken With Intent MediaStore?

Feb 17, 2010

When I take a picture with Androids camera app, it detects the phone's orientation and saves the pic accordingly. So if i take a picture of a building, the roof will be on the topside, whether I hold the phone in landscape position or portrait.

However, when i use

Intent imageCaptureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);

to get a picture, the camera app doesn't react to orientation. If i hold the phone vertically (portrait), the resulting pic will be rotated, with said building's roof to the left of the screen.

How can I set the intent so that the camera will take orientation into account? Or can I deduce in some way in what orientation the pic was taken and rotate it myself afterward?

Android :: Small Picture Retrieved From Camera Although Specified MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT In 2.X

May 7, 2010

I just don't get it: when I use the camera with an intent and also specify an output file, the returned image is always very small on many devices (e.g. Motorola Milestone 2.1, HTC Desire 2.1, Emulator 2.1, Emulator 2.0.1) but not on all (e.g. Nexus One). Here's what I do to bring up the camera app:

private final static String TEMP_PHOTO_FILE = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/TEMP_PHOTO.JPG"; ..............

Android : Advice Needed For Manipulating Mediastore For All Music Files?

Aug 3, 2010

I'm rather new to android programming and right now I'm playing with the media store for a personal test project. I've run into a couple double-edge problems..

I need to query the mediastore for a list of all music files, simple enough - but i need to restrict the results to certain folders only. I accomplished this (rather easily) using the SQL-*LIKE- where clauses and all's well on this aspect.
I now need a unique (if this were actually using SQL, I could simply use the DISTINCT modifier and be done with this) list of all artists. Now this is based off the songs in a given path. Therefore I cannot filter the list returned from querying the URI:MediaStore.Audio.Artists.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, and adding in where clauses based off the file path as I did in the first step.

So, what this leaves me with is using my initial query and getting a cursor back then stripping the dupes from the cursor (which is where i am now - too slow, especially with 1000+ songs) - based on a query of artists instead of songs, obviously.

Is is possible to override the actual query that fills the cursor, maybe? As in: override the query and filter how the data is initially put into the cursor (remove recursive entries) and return the proper cursor immediately? Content providers and how they were never built with a distinct function is beyond me, but whatever. Is the returned cursor from a URI query command filled in a manner that can be overridden or not? That's what I'm unclear of at the moment on this. I would like to be able to wrap the getContentResolver().query(xxx..)) command directly to remove the entries on cursor fill, if possible - i do async queries and using a single query statement (well, one for the artist query) would be great.

My other alternative thought is to just preload the data and manipulate my view's data by creating a new cursor based off the preloaded dataset (cursor) - which may be the way to go, and if so - would a cursor be the best way to store this data? Also worried about ram with larger libraries.

Maybe there's simply a way to do a DISTINCT query on the URI - I just do not know. I've seen this question (or the ilk there-of) asked many times with no good answers that were meant for a URI as opposed to a SQL back-end.

Android : MediaStore Returning Loop Of Images - Not Entire Directory

Nov 22, 2009

Hello, I'm testing some code from a demo found in a forum and I'm getting some strange results. My goal is to be able to allow users to access the pictures on their device to choose an avatar/logo. This code run flawlessly except that I only get a handful of images on the phone. And its not even always the same images. Whats more is that it loads those images into a gridview and repeats them for what looks like a number of times equal to the actual number of images that are on the device. And on top of that if I scroll down the through the pictures, and scroll back up, it reorders the pictures from what they were previously. Each time I load the app the pictures seem to be different as well. I have around 400 pictures stored on my phone, and thats what I'm using to test. If someone could shed some light on this for me that would be great. This is my first time using a URI to access content to I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting this one. Code...

Android :: Save Data From Camera To Disk Using MediaStore On Android?

Mar 16, 2009

I'd been using my own Camera class for taking images and my own database but soon enough I couldn't really keep up with changes and I decided to use the built in camera application in Android to do the job, but I can't seem to get it to save file. What am I missing here? The application seems to save the file but it's just 0 bytes. I looked up the source code of the Camera application and it's looking for the "output" in Extras to save the file.

Public class CameraTest extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);...............

Android :: Add New Image To Android MediaStore InsertVideo Function?

Jan 22, 2010

So our app has the option to take either a picture or a video. If the user takes a picture, we can use the MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage function to add the new image (via a filepath) to the phone's gallery and generate a content:// style URI. Is there a similar process for a captured video, given that we only have it's filepath?

Android :: Android Get Filename And Path From Uri - Mediastore

Aug 3, 2010

I have an onActivityResult returning from an mediastore image selection which I can get a URI for an image using the following:

Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
Converting this to a string gives this:
content://media/external/images/media/47
Or to a path gives:
/external/images/media/47

However I can't seem to find a way to convert this into an absolute path, as I want to load the image into a bitmap without having to copy it somewhere. I know this can be done using the URI and content resolver but this seems to break on rebooting of the phone, I guess MediaStore doesn't keep its numbering the same between reboots.
