        myDir.mkdirs();
        Random generator = new Random();
        int n = 10000;
        n = generator.nextInt(n);
        String fname = "Image-"+ n +".jpg";
        File file = new File (myDir, fname);
        if (file.exists ()) file.delete ();
        FileOutputStream outStream;
        try {
            outStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, outStream);
            outStream.flush();
            outStream.close();

    GridView sdcardImages = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.gridview);
    sdcardImages.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter());
    sdcardImages.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) {
            String[] projection = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
            cursor = managedQuery( MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,

To add the image as an email attachment look here, at the Intent.EXTRA_STREAM section: https://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-common.html#Email

For Facebook look here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/android

First you have to fetch the image as a bitmap from the file path. Then you can pass the image to other applications through an intent. If you want a string to passed along with the image, you can pass it through the intent as EXTRA_TEXT. Add WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE in the permissions. Try this:

File imgFile = new  File(imagePath);
if(imgFile.exists()){
      Bitmap icon = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath);
      Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
      share.setType("image/jpeg");

      ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
      values.put(Images.Media.TITLE, "title");
      values.put(Images.Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/jpeg");
      Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
        values);


      OutputStream outstream;
      try {
         outstream = getContentResolver().openOutputStream(uri);
         icon.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, outstream);
      outstream.close();
      } catch (Exception e) {
         System.err.println(e.toString());
      }

      //text
      share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Text that has to be shared");
      //image
      share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
      startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Share Image"));
}
