Answer 1

Following solution works for me. I've tested with Gallery, Google drive, Photos etc.

Sample is in Kotlin language.

ImagePickUtils.kt

fun getImageUri(context: Context, contentURI: String): Uri {
    var conUri = Uri.parse(contentURI)
    var filePath = ""
    if (DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, conUri)) {
        val wholeID = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(conUri)

        // Split at colon, use second item in the array
        val id = wholeID.split(":".toRegex()).dropLastWhile { it.isEmpty() }.toTypedArray()[1]

        val column = arrayOf(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA)

        // where id is equal to
        val sel = MediaStore.Images.Media._ID + "=?"

        val cursor = context.contentResolver.query(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
                column, sel, arrayOf(id), null) ?: return conUri

        val columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(column[0])

        if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
            filePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex)
        }
        cursor.close()

        if (filePath.isNotEmpty()) {
            filePath = filePath.replace(" ".toRegex(), "%20")
            conUri = Uri.parse("file://$filePath")
        }
    }
    return conUri
}

onActivityResult of Activity / Fragment:

if (data != null) {
    val imagePath: Uri
    if (data.data != null) {
           val mImageUri = data.data
           imagePath = getImageUri(this@HomeActivity, mImageUri.toString())
           Log.i(TAG+" Image actual path", imagePath.toString())
    }
}

Hope this would help you.
