Try the following code. Hope this helps!

        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
        intent.setType("image/*");
        intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true); // allow the user to select multiple items, only available in Android API 18 and higher.
        startActivityForResult(intent, requestCode);
