Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(picturePath); returns null bitmap.
The reason would be need read external storage permission. Make sure you have supporting runtime permissions if you are using Android Operating System version which is above 5.0
Also make sure your picturePath represents a file which has URI scheme image.
Good luck there.

Below is my MainActivity and Manifest file. I am trying to implement a screenshot in my app which then gives the option to open the screenshot using other applications. When I click the button in the main activity nothing is happening. It keeps throwing java.io.FileNotFoundException like so
W/System.err: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/ScreenShooter/2021-02-19_07:45:59.jpg: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

its seems like you are access the directory which not exist make sure its exist if you are using default screenshots folder then replace this line
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/ScreenShooter/" + now + ".jpg";
to
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/Pictures/Screenshots/" + now + ".jpg";
but this getExternalStorageDirectory is depricated now so use this one
getFilesDir()+ "/Pictures/Screenshots/" + now + ".jpg";
You're trying to instance a file on a path only via string which represents path+fileName.
Instead you should instance a new File with path separated from the fileName.

I have an activity to read NFC Type A tags (non-NDEF). I am running Android Studio with Android phone in developer mode.
The project launches the application correctly on the developer Android phone with NFC switched on on the phone. When I tap my NFC contactless card on the phone, the phone detects the NFC card but shows an options list of other NFC reader application installed on the phone instead of passing the intent to the foreground application.
How do I get the foreground project's application to receive the NFC intent instead of having a suggestions list popout ?
Here's my AndroidManifest.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Here's the Activity Java class:
package testtag;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;

System.out.println("Tap Tag window ready ...");

// nfcAdapter = nfcManager.getDefaultAdapter();
nfcAdapter = NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this);
if (nfcManager != null) {
System.out.println("NFC Manager ready ...");
}
if (nfcAdapter != null) {
System.out.println("NFC Adapter ready ...");
}
}
#Override

intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
PendingIntent nfcPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, intent, 0);
if (nfcAdapter != null) {
nfcAdapter.enableForegroundDispatch(this, nfcPendingIntent, null, null);
}
}
#Override

super.onPause();
if (nfcAdapter != null) {
try {
nfcAdapter.disableForegroundDispatch(this);
} catch (IllegalStateException ex) {
Log.e("ATHTAG","Error disabling NFC foreground dispatch", ex);
}
}
}
#Override

System.out.println("Doing onNewIntent() ...");
// Use NFC to read tag
Tag tag = intent.getParcelableExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_TAG);

System.out.println("New tag found !!!");
} else {
System.out.println("No new tag found !!!");
}
}
public static void setTargetRedirectIntent(Class activity) {
targetActivity = activity;
}
}
The console manages to print the:
I/System.out: Tap Tag window ready ...
I/System.out: NFC Manager ready ...
NFC Adapter ready ...
How do I read the NFC card from the foreground without having the suggestions list with installed NFC reader apps appear ?
I figured out that I have to set enableForegroundDispatch() parameters in the onResume() instead of leaving null values.

I want to programing app for data track in background , so I use service .
I want to write a program that monitors all data sent and received by the device, and when the total volume of received or received messages reaches a specified value, the Internet device is turned off.
So I used the following code to monitor the data:
mStartRX = TrafficStats.getTotalRxBytes ();
mStartTX = TrafficStats.getTotalTxBytes ();
And I used the services to work on the background in the background.
To specify the download or upload limit from the user with edittext, I requested this limit in mainactivity and send this value to the service.
The problem is when: When I destroy the program, I will restart the service and get the NULL value and the program crashes.

The problem is with this line
public long dl=MainActivity.DLL;
You're referring to a variable in the Activity, surly when the Activity is destroyed, this variable is no longer in scope, thus you get Null Exception.
You must get this value using the intent.
The other problem is that you can't prevent any service from being killed by the system except foreground services which need to show a notification to the user. But this is not suitable for your situation.
Therefore, the best approach for you is to check whether intent is null or not. If it is not null, you get the value and save it into Preferences or Database or somewhere, if it is null, you retrieve the value from where you stored it before.
Hi I am trying to make an android widget. In this widget i am trying to update the value of my text view by calling a web service and getting the data from it and displaying it in the text view after a particular tie interval and i am getting an exception.

Remove the following line from UpdateService:
private ProgressDialog Dialog = new ProgressDialog(null);
That "Dialog" doesn't appear (at quick glance of that class) to be used anywhere. If you do intend to use it you can't instantiate it like that (it needs a real Context). That should resolve the specific error you are asking about.
(Even if you fix that error, I'm not sure this code will work as expected. You might also want to consider, just for starters: remove all the toasts for debug purposes and use logging and logcat, and/or a debugger; don't use the main UI thread (which services also use by default) for network I/O (see IntentService for an easy way around that); don't do dialogs/alerts/toasts from a Service; and watch out for non-standard naming conventions like starting member variables in upper case, that makes the code difficult to follow (especially when it's not consistent, even if it doesn't follow the convention).)
I'm building a simple paint app and encountering this error given by the logcat:
I'm using the following code:
This SaveDrawing.java serves as the main activity
package com.example.SaveDrawing;
import com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings.DrawingActivity;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
public class SaveDrawing extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
public void onClick(View view){
switch (view.getId()){
case R.id.drawBtn:
//Intent drawIntent = new Intent(this, DrawingActivity.class);
//startActivity( drawIntent);
//Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "This is the Toast message", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent nextActivity = new Intent(SaveDrawing.this, DrawingActivity.class);
startActivity(nextActivity);
break;
}
}
}
Then the next activity after clicking the button is DrawingActivity.java

I have the following in my explorer. I'm not so sure if I got a wrong file structure.
Anyone can help me? I'm kinda new to java and android programming. Many thanks!!! :)
remove <activity android:name=".DrawingActivity" android:screenOrientation="landscape" ></activity> from your manifest as there is no such activity. there is only DrawingActivity in your project structure. Then clean build Run.
Also another possible problem could having an Activity Class name SaveDrawing in the package. You should try to rename the package, update relevant changes to the manifest and try running the app again..
You probably forgot to declare DrawingActivity in your manifest.xml
This is because you attempt to launch com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings/com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings.DrawingActivity,
but actual activity you launch in code is com.example.SaveDrawing/com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings.DrawingActivity
Please change
Intent nextActivity = new Intent(SaveDrawing.this, DrawingActivity.class);
to
Intent nextActivity = new Intent();
nextActivity.setClassName ("com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings", "com.example.SaveDrawing.drawings.DrawingActivity");
It might work.
