Android Camera : data intent returns null -

i have android application contains multiple activities.

in 1 of them i'm using button call device camera :

public void onclick(view view) {     intent photointent = new intent(mediastore.action_image_capture);     startactivityforresult(photointent, image_capture); } 

in same activity call onactivityresult method image result :

@override protected void onactivityresult(int requestcode, int resultcode, intent data) {     if (requestcode == image_capture) {         if (resultcode == result_ok) {             bitmap image = (bitmap) data.getextras().get("data");             imageview imageview = (imageview) findviewbyid(r.id.pic);             imageview.setimagebitmap(image);}         else if (resultcode == result_canceled)              {toast.maketext(this, "canceled ", toast.length_long).show();}     } } 

the problem intent data null , onactivityresult method turns directly (resultcode == result_canceled) , application returns previous avtivity.

how can fix issue , after calling camera, application returns current activity contains imageview contains picture taken?

thanks

the default android camera application returns non-null intent when passing thumbnail in returned intent. if pass extra_output uri write to, return null intent , picture in uri passed in.

you can verify looking @ camera app's source code on github:

• https://github.com/android/platform_packages_apps_camera/blob/gingerbread-release/src/com/android/camera/camera.java#l1186

  bundle newextras = new bundle(); if (mcropvalue.equals("circle")) {     newextras.putstring("circlecrop", "true"); } if (msaveuri != null) {     newextras.putparcelable(mediastore.extra_output, msaveuri); } else {     newextras.putboolean("return-data", true); } 

i guess you're either passing in extra_output somehow, or camera app on phone works differently.
