If you want to load image from a assets folder you can use the assets Manager to load it

AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
InputStream is = assetManager.open("sample.jpg");
Bitmap  bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);

and for more detail look it the following link https://www.concretepage.com/android/android-assetmanager-example-to-load-image-from-assets-folder

I hope it will help you and one more thing you have also put your .properties file in java folder with classes which is also incorrect .so correct it also. If any problem then ask again.

thanks

more specifically I need the URI of image in assets folder – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 10:58
InputStream is= assetManager.open("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:05
I need this path when my application is in running state – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:05
After that what should I write? plz elaborate – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:07
after this path when you get you can use it for your any purpose like if you want to show it in imageView so look at the answer convert it to bitmap and show – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:09
what you want to do with it – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:10
I need the path of this image which will be sent to server for further processing. In addition to this, server only accepts URI of any image. – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:13
this InputStream is= assetManager.open("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); is returning null value when assets fodler has sample.jpg in it. – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:19
Uri path = Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); String newPath = path.toString(); – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:22
now you will have path of your image in assets – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:23
which returned java.io.FileNotFoundException: file://app/src/main/assets/sample.jpg – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:28
have you correclty set it there are three lines after "file:///" and you have set it two there – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:30
yeah I have used three lines after file: but now I am facing this issue java.io.FileNotFoundException: /android_asset/sample.jpg: – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:34
try { is = assetManager.open("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:35
Uri path = Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); String newPath = path.toString(); Log.d("imagePath",newPath); AssetManager assetManager = getAssets(); InputStream is = null; try { is = assetManager.open("break_icon.jpg"); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is); imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap); – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:37
is that android_asset or android_assets? – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:37
android_asset @SeemaBhandari – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:41
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /android_asset/sample.jpg latest exception – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:45
I am getting this issue while running the application in mobile. I am trying to access the image during run-time, is that possible? – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:46
yes but have you correctly put the image in asset because i have checked it and working properly with me – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:48
yeah i have placed it .. plz check the image attached with this question..is that ok? – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:48
yes it is correct but why you are getting this error while working fine with me – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:50
currently, I am just using this code imageURI = Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:51
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18302603/where-do-i-place-the-assets-folder-in-android-studio?rq=1 check this for assets setting – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:51
use this full code Uri path = Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/sample.jpg"); String newPath = path.toString(); Log.d("imagePath",newPath); AssetManager assetManager = getAssets(); InputStream is = null; try { is = assetManager.open("break_icon.jpg"); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is); imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap) – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:52
I have made asset folder by following steps given in this link – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:54
in which variable are u getting URI? path or new path? – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 11:58
in path is uri and newPath i have converted into string – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 11:59
i am getting this value file:///android_asset/sample.jpg in path – Seema Bhandari Mar 05 '18 at 12:00
yes this is correct – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 13:11
now you can convert into bitmap and set into imageView or send to server.For checking set it in a imageView first. – Mudassir Khan Mar 05 '18 at 13:12
I converted this bitmap to URI and sent it to server but now I am facing this issue java.io.FileNotFoundException: /external/images/media/92972: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory) – Seema Bhandari Mar 06 '18 at 03:50
external/images/media/92972 i think it is sd card path where image exist – Mudassir Khan Mar 06 '18 at 10:35
