copied!<p>This answer is based on your somewhat vague description. I assume that you fired an intent with action: <code>Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT</code></p> <p>And now you get <code>content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:62</code> back instead of the previously media provider URI, correct?</p> <p>On Android 4.4 (KitKat) the new DocumentsActivity gets opened when an <code>Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT</code> is fired thus leading to grid view (or list view) where you can pick an image, this will return the following URIs to calling context (example): <code>content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:62</code> (these are the URIs to the new document provider, it abstracts away the underlying data by providing generic document provider URIs to clients).</p> <p><strong>You can however access both gallery and other activities responding to <code>Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT</code> by using the drawer in the DocumentsActivity (drag from left to right and you'll see a drawer UI with Gallery to choose from). Just as pre KitKat.</strong></p> <p>If you still which to pick in DocumentsActivity class and need the file URI, you should be able to do the following (warning this is hacky!) query (with contentresolver):<code>content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:62</code> URI and read the _display_name value from the cursor. This is somewhat unique name (just the filename on local files) and use that in a selection (when querying) to mediaprovider to get the correct row corresponding to this selection from here you can fetch the file URI as well.</p> <p>The recommended ways of accessing document provider can be found here (get an inputstream or file descriptor to read file/bitmap):</p> <p><a href="https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Examples of using documentprovider</a></p>
