Launching Intent.ACTION_VIEW intent not working on saved image file

Question

First of all let me say that this questions is slightly connected to another question by me. Actually it was created because of that.

I have the following code to wr

Answer 1

I used this hack to fix error:

...
Uri hacked_uri = Uri.parse("file://" + uri.getPath());
intent.setDataAndType(hacked_uri, "image/*");
...

Answer 2

I used this code for my app and works fine. I only did a litle change.

I changed This:

intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(posterFile.getAbsolutePath()),"image/*");

For this:

intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(posterFile),"image/*");

Answer 3

I decided to create my own Activity which simply draws the image on the screen. It is not a perfect solution but it meets my basic standards... It works :)

Answer 4

i use this code

 MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(PayamKhosusiActivity.this, new String[] { filez.toString() },
                        null, new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
                            @Override
                            public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
                                Log.wtf("onScanCompleted", "yes");


                                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
                                intent.setDataAndType(uri, "image/*");
                                intent.setFlags(FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION | FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION); //must for reading data from directory

                                startActivity(intent);
                            }
                        });
