I am trying to open specific folder using gallery and have referenced to other similar questions open image form built_in gallery, and implements the following code, but still fails and reports error (shown in following logcat):
selectSpecificFolder:
private void selectSpecificFolder()
{
File dir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/MyFolder");
Log.d("File path ", dir.getPath());
String dirPath=dir.getAbsolutePath();
if(dir.exists() && dir.isDirectory()) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, null);
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.setData(Uri.fromFile(dir));
Log.d("b4performSpecificCrop_startActivityForResult::", Integer.toString(3));
startActivityForResult(intent, 3);
Log.d("afterperformSpecificCrop_startActivityForResult::", Integer.toString(3));
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(this, "No file exist to show", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
onActivityResult:
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == 3)
{
Log.d("INSIDE_ONACTIVITY_REQUEST3", Integer.toString(3));
if (data==null)
{
Toast.makeText(this,"No image selected",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else
{
Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
String selectedImagePath = selectedImageUri.getPath();
if(selectedImagePath!=null)
{
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(selectedImageUri);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
}

Question:
In Logcat it reports android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=file:xxxxx }
What does it means and how could this be solved? Thanks!!
PS: For the app, it does not have an individual layout that shows all the images in that specific folder. There is instead a "open folder" button such that when user has pressed the button. it would simply use the built-in gallery to show directly the image in the specific folder.
