- Low picture/image quality when capture from camera 2 answers
I am trying to upload an image to firebase using the camera. But, the quality of image i get is too low (not readable). I have written the following code ( with no compilation error). But, can't understand why it's not able to produce a readable image.
I have tried varying the quality parameter of bitmap.compress but the image quality remains the same. But the same compression code works good for images coming from gallery.
uploadPp.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder;
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(infoPp.this, android.R.style.Theme_Material_Dialog_NoActionBar_MinWidth);
} else {
builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(infoPp.this);
}
builder.setTitle("Picture Source")
.setMessage("Select source of picture")
.setPositiveButton("Camera", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE_CNIC);
}
}
})
.setNegativeButton("Gallery", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE_CNIC);
}
})
.setIcon(android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_alert)
.show();
}
});
}
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
mProgress.setMessage("Uploading.....");
if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE_CNIC && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Bitmap imageBitmap;
try {
Bundle extras = data.getExtras();
imageBitmap = (Bitmap) extras.get("data");
mProgress.show();
encodeBitmapAndSaveToFirebase(imageBitmap,"ProfilePhoto");
}catch(Exception e) {
Uri file = data.getData();
mProgress.show();
encodeBitmapAndSaveToFirebase(file,"ProfilePhoto");
}
}
}
public void encodeBitmapAndSaveToFirebase(Bitmap bitmap,String fileName) { //////////// THISIS FOR CAMERA
