Image rotated in app and firebase (implementing ExifInterface)

I am working on uploading a photo for user profiles. The goal is to have it both show in the app as a preview, and send it to the database. I am able to do that successfully, however some photos are showing rotated 90 degrees.
I looked up some information on this and it seems that working with ExifInterface is the way to go? (e.g. Image orientation changes while uploading Image to server) but I am not sure how to implement the code I have for firebase with the bitmap to ExifInterface. It's saying its taking media. I've tried casting and putting in a number of different inputs but can't seem to convert what I have. When I looked up converting bitmap there was another article saying it is not possible.
Screenshot of the app(notice photo rotated in bottom left):
The part of my code where this exists is:
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode) {
case 0:
if(requestCode == RESULT_OK) {
Log.i("RegisterActivity", "case 0");
}
break;
case 1:
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK && data != null) {
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
Log.i("RegisterActivity", "selected image = " + selectedImage);
//Bitmap imageBitmap = null;
try {
imageBitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(this.getContentResolver(), selectedImage); //The Image/Photo
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24629584/image-orientation-changes-while-uploading-image-to-server
//File pictureFile = (File) imageBitmap;
ExifInterface exif= new ExifInterface();
//exif = new ExifInterface();
int angle = 0;
int orientation = exif.getAttributeInt(ExifInterface.TAG_ORIENTATION, ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_NORMAL);
if (orientation == ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_90) {
angle = 90;
}
else if (orientation == ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_180) {
angle = 180;
}
Matrix matrix1 = new Matrix();
//set image rotation value to 45 degrees in matrix.
matrix1.postRotate(angle);
//Create bitmap with new values.
Bitmap photo = Bitmap.createBitmap(imageBitmap, 0, 0, imageBitmap.getWidth(), imageBitmap.getHeight(), matrix1, true);
profilePhoto.setImageBitmap(imageBitmap); //Placing image in ImageView

Intent camera crash

I'm now making a simple android app. It's just allow user to take an Photo and then show it.
When i test it in Virtual device, it's ok. But when i download apk to my android device, after i take a photo in Back camera, the app has stopped and return to main menu. Just problem in Back Camera.
In addition, in virtual device, after taking photo, the photo will show successfully. But it's empty in my phone
In MainActivity, i click on "Take Photo", it will start the camera and same my image to folder. Then it send the path of Photo to the next activity and show it.
This is my MainActivity
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final int REQUEST_ID_IMAGE_CAPTURE = 100;
Button TakePhoto, InsertPhoto, Exit;
String mCurrentPhotoPath;
private File createImageFile() throws IOException {
// Create an image file name
String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
String imageFileName = "JPEG_" + timeStamp + "_";
File storageDir = getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);
File image = File.createTempFile(imageFileName,".jpg",storageDir);
mCurrentPhotoPath = image.getAbsolutePath();
return image;
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
TakePhoto = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
InsertPhoto = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button3);
Exit = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
//Start Camera
TakePhoto.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
// Create the File where the photo should go
File photoFile = null;
try {
photoFile = createImageFile();
} catch (IOException ex) {
System.out.println(ex);
}
// Continue only if the File was successfully created
if (photoFile != null) {
Uri photoURI = Uri.fromFile(photoFile);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoURI);
startActivityForResult(intent,REQUEST_ID_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}
}
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == REQUEST_ID_IMAGE_CAPTURE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
//Bitmap bp = (Bitmap)data.getExtras().get("data");
//ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
// bp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, stream);
// byte[] images = stream.toByteArray();
File imgFile = new File(mCurrentPhotoPath);
if(imgFile.exists()){
System.out.println("This is file"+mCurrentPhotoPath.toString());
Intent Show = new Intent(MainActivity.this, ShowPhoto.class);
Show.putExtra("image",imgFile);
startActivity(Show);
}
} else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Action canceled", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Action Failed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
}
This is The ShowPhoto Activity
public class ShowPhoto extends Activity {
private LinearLayout Image;
Button Back,Next;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_show_photo);
Image=(LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.linearLayout);
//Get Image from previous Activity
File image = (File)getIntent().getExtras().get("image");
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(image.getAbsolutePath());
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(getApplicationContext());
imageView.setImageBitmap(Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bmp, bmp.getWidth()*2, bmp.getHeight()*2, true));
Image.addView(imageView);
}
}
This is what's in my logcat when i run app
enter image description here
enter image description here

Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.os.Parcelable android.os.Bundle.getParcelable(java.lang.String)' null object reference

I am making an app in which a feature that user can upload images and video to server
it was working well on activity but now I want to use it in a fragment. I try to code effectively, efficiently and I am not getting any error during compiling and my app runs successfully but when I click on fragment it shows "unfortunately app has stopped " and in log cat I am getting this error:

Compressing an Image before Uploading it to Firebase Storage

I am trying to Compress an Image before Uploading it to Firebase Storage using SiliCompressor library , but it seems not working , the ProgressDialog doesn't stop. What i first did was to pick the Image from the Gallery into an ImageButton by clicking an ImageButton. Below is my code.
imageSelect.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
galleryIntent.setType("image/");
startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GALLERY_REQUEST);
}
});
---------------------------------------------------------------------
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == GALLERY_REQUEST && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
imageUri = data.getData();
// imageSelect.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imageSelectFile.getAbsolutePath()));
// Compressor com = Compressor.getDefault(this).compressToFile(imageFile);
// imageSelect.setImageURI(imageUri);
Picasso.with(c).load(imageUri).fit().into(imageSelect);
}
}
So now am having a Method startPosting() which Uploads data By a click of Button to Firebase Storage.
Below is my code.
private void startPosting() {
mProgress.setMessage("Uploading Image...");
//Compressing an Image ....
String stringUri= imageUri.toString();
Uri uri_image_final;
//String filePath = SiliCompressor.with(getApplicationContext()).compress(stringUri);
String filePath = SiliCompressor.with(getApplicationContext()).compress(stringUri, true);
uri_image_final = Uri.parse(filePath);
System.out.println("Whats here :" +
""+ uri_image_final);
final String title_val = mPostTitle.getText().toString().trim();
final String desc_val = mPostDesc.getText().toString().trim();
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && !TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && filePath != null) {
mProgress.show();
StorageReference filepath = mStorage.child("BlogImages").child(uri_image_final.getLastPathSegment());
filepath.putFile(uri_image_final).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
Uri downloadUri = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
DatabaseReference newPost = mDatabase.push();
DatabaseReference c = mDatabase.push();
newPost.child("EventTitle").setValue(title_val);
newPost.child("EventDescription").setValue(desc_val);
newPost.child("EventImage").setValue(downloadUri.toString());
newPost.child("PostId").setValue(c);
mProgress.dismiss();
startActivity(new Intent(PostActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
}
}
);
} else if (TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && imageUri != null) {
mProgress.show();
StorageReference filepath = mStorage.child("BlogImages").child(uri_image_final.getLastPathSegment());
filepath.putFile(uri_image_final).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
Uri downloadUri = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
DatabaseReference newPost = mDatabase.push();
newPost.child("EventTitle").setValue("");
newPost.child("EventDescription").setValue("");
newPost.child("EventImage").setValue(downloadUri.toString());
mProgress.dismiss();
// startActivity(new Intent(PostActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
Intent load= new Intent(PostActivity.this,MainActivity.class);
load.putExtra(eventname,eventname);
startActivity(load);
}
}
);
}
else if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && !TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && imageUri== null){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Please insert an Image and Upload ! ",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
Now if you see in that Method , my essence was to Compress an Image which is loaded in the ImageButton, then Afterwards it Uploads to firebase.
This is the line of Silicon Compressor which tries to compress an image loaded in the ImageButton.
String filePath = SiliCompressor.with(getApplicationContext()).compress(stringUri, true);
I got this lib from this link of Github.
https://github.com/Tourenathan-G5organisation/SiliCompressor
So where am i wrong please because the Image is not Uploading but i want it to Upload while it's compressed.

Here is what I have written, you can try it.
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == Constants.PICK_USER_PROFILE_IMAGE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Bitmap bmp = ImagePicker.getImageFromResult(this, resultCode, data);//your compressed bitmap here
startPosting(bmp);
}
}
}
}
Your startPosting method should be like this
private void startPosting(Bitmap bmp) {
byte[] data = bmp.toByteArray();
mProgress.setMessage("Uploading Image...");
final String title_val = mPostTitle.getText().toString().trim();
final String desc_val = mPostDesc.getText().toString().trim();
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && !TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && filePath != null) {
mProgress.show();
StorageReference filepath = mStorage.child("BlogImages").child(uri_image_final.getLastPathSegment());
UploadTask uploadTask = filepath.putBytes(data);
uploadTask.addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Exception exception) {
// Handle unsuccessful uploads
}
}).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
Uri downloadUri = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
DatabaseReference newPost = mDatabase.push();
DatabaseReference c = mDatabase.push();
newPost.child("EventTitle").setValue(title_val);
newPost.child("EventDescription").setValue(desc_val);
newPost.child("EventImage").setValue(downloadUri.toString());
newPost.child("PostId").setValue(c);
mProgress.dismiss();
startActivity(new Intent(PostActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
}
});
} else if (TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && imageUri != null) {
mProgress.show();
StorageReference filepath = mStorage.child("BlogImages").child(uri_image_final.getLastPathSegment());
UploadTask uploadTask = filepath.putBytes(data);
uploadTask.addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Exception exception) {
// Handle unsuccessful uploads
}
}).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
Uri downloadUri = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
DatabaseReference newPost = mDatabase.push();
newPost.child("EventTitle").setValue("");
newPost.child("EventDescription").setValue("");
newPost.child("EventImage").setValue(downloadUri.toString());
mProgress.dismiss();
// startActivity(new Intent(PostActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
Intent load= new Intent(PostActivity.this,MainActivity.class);
load.putExtra(eventname,eventname);
startActivity(load);
}
});
}
else if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(title_val) && !TextUtils.isEmpty(desc_val) && imageUri== null){

The ImagePicker Class have all the methods of handling compression as well as rotation of image.
Hope it will help

mSelectImage.buildDrawingCache();
Bitmap bitmap = mSelectImage.getDrawingCache();

bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 50, byteArrayOutputStream);
byte[] data = byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray();
