I hope this will help you. This code works for me.

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
 startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);

ResultCode is used for updating the selected image to Gallery View

if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK
            && null != data) {
        Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
        String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
        Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,
                filePathColumn, null, null, null);

        if (cursor == null || cursor.getCount() < 1) {
            return; // no cursor or no record. DO YOUR ERROR HANDLING
        }

        cursor.moveToFirst();
        int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);

        if(columnIndex < 0) // no column index
            return; // DO YOUR ERROR HANDLING

        String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);

        cursor.close(); // close cursor

        photo = decodeFilePath(picturePath.toString());

        List bitmap = new ArrayList();
        bitmap.add(photo);
        ImageAdapter imageAdapter = new ImageAdapter(
                AddIncidentScreen.this, bitmap);
        imageAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
        newTagImage.setAdapter(imageAdapter);
    }
