I've an android application where in an activity the user chooses a picture from the phone's memory to upload it to the server using the Action Pick intent
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);
However; now the requirements has changed and the client wants to upload any file with any extension, what intent should I use in order to open the phone's memory (like the file manager) and choose whatever I want?
Now I'm using the Get content intent thanks to you guys:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("*/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
but the problem is in the start activity for result
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
Log.d("select pivture", "passed her");
Uri selectedMediaUri = data.getData();
String Fpath = selectedMediaUri.getPath();
Log.d("Fpath", Fpath);
}
I get as follows:
/document/primary:Download/tool208.pdf
Which is not what I want, I want path like this one:
/external/images/media/6634
