Hi you can use the code below, i hope it helps you .

package com.example.browsepicture;

import java.io.File;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.media.MediaScannerConnection;
import android.media.MediaScannerConnection.MediaScannerConnectionClient;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Environment;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;

public class BrowsePicture2 extends Activity {
    String SCAN_PATH;
    File[] allFiles ;
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_browse_picture);

        File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath()+"/aaaa/");
        allFiles = folder.listFiles();

        ((Button) findViewById(R.id.button1))
                .setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
                    public void onClick(View arg0) {
                        new SingleMediaScanner(BrowsePicture2.this, allFiles[0]);
                    }
                });
    }

    public class SingleMediaScanner implements MediaScannerConnectionClient {

        private MediaScannerConnection mMs;
        private File mFile;

        public SingleMediaScanner(Context context, File f) {
            mFile = f;
            mMs = new MediaScannerConnection(context, this);
            mMs.connect();
        }

        public void onMediaScannerConnected() {
            mMs.scanFile(mFile.getAbsolutePath(), null);
        }

        public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
            Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            intent.setData(uri);
            startActivity(intent);
            mMs.disconnect();
        }

    }
}
