Can not load image from file path to ImageView with Glide

Question

I'm trying to get image from gallery and store the path to the database for further use. File path is saved in database but I am unable to get the view on ImageView.

File path is: /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/image.jpg

Here I'm getting the image path as imgS

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK && requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) {
        imageUri = data.getData();
        img.setImageURI(imageUri);
        imgS = getPath(getApplicationContext(), imageUri);
    }
}

public static String getPath(Context context, Uri uri) {
    String result = null;
    Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null);
    if (cursor != null) {
        if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
            int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndex("_data");
            result = cursor.getString(column_index);
        }
        cursor.close();
    }
    if (result == null) {
        result = "Not found";
    }
    return result;
}

Here I'm trying to retrieve the path and show the image in image view.

 File f = new File(item.getImg());
    Glide.with(c).load(f).into(holder.img);
    holder.img.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //Toast.makeText(c, f.getAbsolutePath(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            if (f.exists()) {
                Toast.makeText(c, f.getAbsolutePath(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }
    });

Note: File exist at the path.

What OS version are you using? Accessing files directly by path generally [won't work in Android 11](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/privacy/storage). You'll want to use MediaStore, as per the ["Media" row of this table](https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage). — Jake Lee, May 05 '21 at 17:33
Dont try to get a file path. You can use the uri directly to handle the file. That file path is not accessable on an Android 10 device. The uri is. — blackapps, May 05 '21 at 19:01
Store data.getData().toString() for future use. For an ImageView.setImageUri() for example. — blackapps, May 05 '21 at 19:03
`int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndex("_data");` You better check for value -1. — blackapps, May 05 '21 at 19:05

Just need to add android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" to Application tag in Manifest.xml .
