display the photo captured from camera or after selecting it from gallery on another activity in imageview

Question

I'm doing a photo editor app in android and I have two image buttons(one for the camera and the other for gallery). When I capture the photo with the camera or select the photo from the gallery I want the photo to be displayed in another activity on image view. I just wrote some of the code for the camera,but it doesn't work. If someone can help me , I'll be very grateful. I'm a newbie to programming.

manifest.xml

<manifest ..>
<uses-feature android:name = "android.hardware.camera"  android:required="false"/>

first activity:

 public class MainActivity extends Activity {
 private static int IMG_RESULT = 1;

 @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    ImageButton take_photo = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.cameraButton);
    ImageButton get_photo  = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.galleryButton);
    take_photo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
            startActivityForResult(intent,0);

        }
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent  data) {
    if(requestCode == 0 && resultCode == RESULT_OK)
    {
        Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap)data.getExtras().get("data");
        Intent intent = new Intent(this,ShowPhotoActivity.class);
        intent.putExtra("BitmapImage",bitmap);`
        startActivity(intent);`

second activity:

 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_show_photo);
          ImageView showPhoto = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView);
          Bitmap bitImage = getIntent().getParcelableExtra("BitmapImage");
          showPhoto.setImageBitmap(bitImage);

What is the actual problem? Does your camera open? Are you able to capture the image. Any log errors? — Naz141, Sep 06 '16 at 00:55

Please can you post the xml of the second activity you want to open the image, i want to see the `` — Naz141, Sep 06 '16 at 01:02
Your code works fine. remove the single quotation in here ` intent.putExtra("BitmapImage",bitmap);` startActivity(intent);`` — Naz141, Sep 06 '16 at 01:16
Thats just a mistake I made when i copied the code...anyway,thank you . if you have any suggestion how to get the photo from gallery and do the same thing like with the camera image,I'll be very grateful :) — G.Al, Sep 06 '16 at 01:27

Code tested and works fine.

Add this on manifest file

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera"></uses-feature>

First Activity

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if(requestCode == 0 && resultCode == RESULT_OK){
        Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap)data.getExtras().get("data");
        Intent intent = new Intent(this,ShowPhotoActivity.class);
        intent.putExtra("BitmapImage",bitmap);
        startActivity(intent);
    }
}

Second Activity

ImageView showPhoto = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView);
Bitmap bitImage = getIntent().getParcelableExtra("BitmapImage");
showPhoto.setImageBitmap(bitImage);

XML file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/imageView"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="300dp" />
</LinearLayout>

Thank you..It works now,but when the photo is displayed in imageview is blurred.. — G.Al, Sep 06 '16 at 01:34
