I have a problem, I am taking picture saving it on sd card and sometimes I want to delete the image, using

getActivity().getContentResolver().delete(imageUri,null,null);

And I got error that there is something wrong with my uri.. but it works when I display that image, so where is the problem?

Do you have write permission for the SD card? – jpalm Jan 10 '14 at 18:03
Yes I have. I am writing those photos to that sd card. – user2141889 Jan 10 '14 at 18:22
Put the error trace in your question, we can only guess at this point. – jpalm Jan 10 '14 at 18:26

E/AndroidRuntime﹕ FATAL EXCEPTION: main java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL file:///storage/***/Image_name.jpg thanks the error I get, I want to delete photo that has been taken like 20 photos before. – user2141889 Jan 10 '14 at 19:14
Why not use new File(path).delete()? – gipinani Jan 10 '14 at 19:38
