Question

My onActivityResult is not working because getBitmap is deprecated, any alternative codes to achieve this?

here are the codes that needs to

Answer 1

Have you tried this?

val bitmap = ImageDecoder.createSource(contentResolver, uri)

Answer 2

It was evident that the getBitmap API doesn't work with the latest Android SDK - 29. So, this worked for me

Uri contentURI = data.getData();
try {
    imageView.setImageURI(contentURI);
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Please let me know if this doesn't work for any of you, shall other options!

Answer 3

You can use this code for creating bitmap

Bitmap bitmap;
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 29) {
     ImageDecoder.Source source = ImageDecoder.createSource(getApplicationContext().getContentResolver(), imageUri);
     try {
         bitmap = ImageDecoder.decodeBitmap(source);
     } catch (IOException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
     }
} else {
     try {
     bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getApplicationContext().getContentResolver(), imageUri);
     } catch (IOException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     }
}
