have you added runtime permission if you are using greater than 6.0 device — Dilip, Dec 07 '17 at 05:44

You need to add runtime permission for OS Marshmallow or above. Add this code for permission to allow run time operation in splash activity in onCreate or before download process of image.

if (!checkPermission()) {
    openActivity();
} else {
    if (checkPermission()) {
        requestPermissionAndContinue();
    } else {
        openActivity();
    }
}

Add this method outside onCreate

private static final int PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE = 200;
private boolean checkPermission() {

        return ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
                && ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
                ;
    }

private void requestPermissionAndContinue() {
    if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
            && ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {

        if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
                && ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
            AlertDialog.Builder alertBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
            alertBuilder.setCancelable(true);
            alertBuilder.setTitle(getString(R.string.permission_necessary));
            alertBuilder.setMessage(R.string.storage_permission_is_encessary_to_wrote_event);
            alertBuilder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN)
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                    ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(SplashActivity.this, new String[]{WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
                            , READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
                }
            });
            AlertDialog alert = alertBuilder.create();
            alert.show();
            Log.e("", "permission denied, show dialog");
        } else {
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(SplashActivity.this, new String[]{WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
                    READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
        }
    } else {
        openActivity();
    }
}

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {

    if (requestCode == PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE) {
        if (permissions.length > 0 && grantResults.length > 0) {

            boolean flag = true;
            for (int i = 0; i < grantResults.length; i++) {
                if (grantResults[i] != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                    flag = false;
                }
            }
            if (flag) {
                openActivity();
            } else {
                finish();
            }

        } else {
            finish();
        }
    } else {
        super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
    }
}

private void openActivity() {
  //add your further process after giving permission or to download images from remote server.
}

This worked a treat for me and saved a huge amount of time! Thank you! The only thing I had to change obviously was the activity name SplashActivity.this - perfect — ZipNFC, Oct 18 '18 at 11:39

After Android 6.0 Marshmellow you need Runtime Permissions to access user private data like Local storage. https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html
