setImageURI not working

Question

I am trying to set the image of my imageButtons when a user is selecting a photo from the gallery or is taking a photo using the camera. The problem is that my imageButtons are just changed to a blank image, but I am getting the file directory. What am I doing wrong? I have created my ImageIntent and onActivityResult from this answer camera & gallery. But here is my onActivityResult method:

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
        if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE) {
            final boolean isCamera;
            if (data == null) {
                isCamera = true;
            } else {
                final String action = data.getAction();
                if (action == null) {
                    isCamera = false;
                } else {
                    isCamera = action
                            .equals(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
                }
            }

            Uri selectedImageUri;
            if (isCamera) {
                selectedImageUri = outputFileUri;
            } else {
                selectedImageUri = data == null ? null : data.getData();
            }

            ImageButton pic1 = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.ibPic1);
            Toast.makeText(this, "Image saved to:\n" + selectedImageUri,
                    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            pic1.setImageURI(selectedImageUri);
        }
    }
}

So i know from the Toast that I am getting the Uri's. I have tried this answer, and various other solutions which involves some sort of Bitmap, but these are always resulting in app crash and out of memory exceptions.

Edit

OnClick method to launch the image intent:

public void onClick(View v) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    switch (v.getId()) {
    case R.id.ibPic1:
        openImageIntent();
        break;
    }
}

Image intent method

private void openImageIntent() {

    // Determine Uri of camera image to save.
    final File root = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + File.separator + "Klea" + File.separator);
    root.mkdirs();
    final String fname = Sell.getUniqueImageFilename();
    final File sdImageMainDirectory = new File(root, fname);
    outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(sdImageMainDirectory);

    // Camera.
    final List<Intent> cameraIntents = new ArrayList<Intent>();
    final Intent captureIntent = new Intent(
            android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    final PackageManager packageManager = getPackageManager();
    final List<ResolveInfo> listCam = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(
            captureIntent, 0);
    for (ResolveInfo res : listCam) {
        final String packageName = res.activityInfo.packageName;
        final Intent intent = new Intent(captureIntent);
        intent.setComponent(new ComponentName(res.activityInfo.packageName,
                res.activityInfo.name));
        intent.setPackage(packageName);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
        cameraIntents.add(intent);
    }
    // Filesystem.
    final Intent galleryIntent = new Intent();
    galleryIntent.setType("image/*");
    galleryIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);

    // Chooser of filesystem options.
    final Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(galleryIntent,
            "Vælg kilde");

    // Add the camera options.
    chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS,
            cameraIntents.toArray(new Parcelable[] {}));

    startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}

Get unique file name method:

private static String getUniqueImageFilename() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    String fileName = "img_" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ".jpg";
    return fileName;
}

Its an alternative by creating bitmap from file and setting it. I also include conversion from content uri to actual uri(as to post file, you need actual uri) and image sampling to avoid OOM:

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE) {
        final boolean isCamera;
        if (data == null) {
            isCamera = true;
        } else {
            final String action = data.getAction();
            if (action == null) {
                isCamera = false;
            } else {
                isCamera = action
                        .equals(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
            }
        }

        Uri selectedImageUri;
        if (isCamera) {
            selectedImageUri = outputFileUri;
        } else {
            Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
            String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };

            Cursor cursor = activity.getContentResolver().query(
                    selectedImage, filePathColumn, null, null, null);
            cursor.moveToFirst();
            int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
            selectedImageUri = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
            cursor.close();
        }

        ImageButton pic1 = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.ibPic1);
        Toast.makeText(this, "Image saved to:\n" + selectedImageUri,
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        //.setImageURI(selectedImageUri);
        final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
        options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
        BitmapFactory.decodeFile(selectedImageUri, options);
        options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, dpToPx(100),
                dpToPx(100));

        // Decode bitmap with inSampleSize set
        options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
        Bitmap bMapRotate = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, options);
        int width = bMapRotate.getWidth();
        int height = bMapRotate.getHeight();
        if (width > height)
            para = height;
        else
            para = width;
        if (bMapRotate != null) {
            pic1.setImageBitmap(bMapRotate);
        }
    }
}

private int dpToPx(int dp) {
    float density = activity.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density;
    return Math.round((float) dp * density);
}

public static int calculateInSampleSize(BitmapFactory.Options options,
        int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
    // Raw height and width of image
    final int height = options.outHeight;
    final int width = options.outWidth;
    int inSampleSize = 1;

    if (height > reqHeight || width > reqWidth) {

        // Calculate ratios of height and width to requested height and
        // width
        final int heightRatio = Math.round((float) height
                / (float) reqHeight);
        final int widthRatio = Math.round((float) width / (float) reqWidth);

        // Choose the smallest ratio as inSampleSize value, this will
        // guarantee
        // a final image with both dimensions larger than or equal to the
        // requested height and width.
        inSampleSize = heightRatio < widthRatio ? heightRatio : widthRatio;
    }

    return inSampleSize;
}

Maybe you had the same problem as me, as I understood xml properties like (app:tint="@color/white") or others in your case in the layout file were hiding my image.

After these lines setImageUri works:

binding.image.setImageTintMode(null);
binding.image.setImageURI(uri);
