    <p>I am trying to download an image from a URL to display as an ImageView. The download is done in the background using AsyncTask. However, the call to the decodeStream of the BitmapFactory always returns a null object. I verified that the Url provided for the connection is right, but it seems that BitmapFactory cannot read the image from the InputStream returned by the HTTP connection. Here is the code below:</p> <pre><code>@Override protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... uri) { Bitmap bm = null; HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpGet request = new HttpGet(Uri.encode(uri[0])); try { HttpResponse response = client.execute(request); HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity(); String contentType = entity.getContentType().getValue(); DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics); int halfScreen = metrics.widthPixels / 2; int photoWidth = halfScreen &gt; 200 ? 200 : halfScreen; if (contentType.contains("image/jpeg") || contentType.contains("image/png") || contentType.contains("image/gif")) { bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new BufferedInputStream(entity.getContent())); if (bm.getWidth() &gt; photoWidth) bm = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bm, photoWidth, Math.round((photoWidth*bm.getHeight())/bm.getWidth()), true); } } catch (Exception e) { bm = null; } return bm; } </code></pre> <p>What is weird is that the exact same code runs fine on a Nexus S, but does not work on a Samsung running Android 2.1-update1.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
