Uri content:// can not be loaded.

See original GitHub issue

Hey, I have trouble with displaying pictures from gallery on Samsung Devices. compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'

However pictures of just taken photos form camera may be displayed (uri cames from camera)

1.Before all I give Application READ/WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions. 2.I create photo file using:

val mediaStorageDir = File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
                    Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES), "ApplicationFolder")

and I return picture using MediaScannerConnectionClient that gives me Uri in form of content:// instead of file:// Logs

Created new uri:content://media/external/images/media/957
for file: file:///storage/emulated/0/Pictures/ApplicationFolder/someName_25.10.2017-12%3A11%3A48.jpg

I receive Uri in onActivityResult data.getData()
Images from Camera are being displayed Uri from camera either gallery:content://media/external/images/media/957

mImageView.post {      
Picasso.with(mContext)
                .load(mUri)
                .placeholder(R.drawable.ic_loading_animated)
                .fit()
                .centerCrop() 
                .into(mImageView)

But images from Gallery are not. Uri from camera either gallery:content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A957

The only way to display them is to use

val inputStream = contentResolver.openInputStream(photoUri)
 val bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream)
pv_preview_picture.setImageBitmap(bitmap)

then all pictures display well, but I don’t take adavantages of Picasso .fit() placeHolder() and so on and i disapointed of this solution

Summary: I don’t know where is the problem. It’s a problem of Piccasso, permission or Samsung. On my Nexus 6p i have no issue, but on Samsung i do.

UPDATE Finally I came accross two solution

taking bitmap from contentResolver.inputStream(uri) or imageView.setImageURI(uri)

but Picasso still not displaying pictures stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46930348/picasso-unable-to-display-image-from-gallery
