Mike Billau commented on CB-5398: --------------------------------- This exists on 3.x as well. In the mean time a workaround is to go through the "Gallery" app. So when it says "Recent", "Drive", "Images", and "Downloads", at the bottom of that list will be "Gallery". As far as I can tell this opens up the Gallery app and then you can navigate through those folders and select any of the photos. I'm getting this in LOGCAT: {noformat} 11-15 12:16:24.017: D/CordovaActivity(7351): Incoming Result 11-15 12:16:24.017: D/CordovaActivity(7351): Request code = 50 11-15 12:16:24.017: D/CordovaActivity(7351): We have a callback to send this result to 11-15 12:16:24.037: D/dalvikvm(7351): GC_FOR_ALLOC freed 34K, 3% free 16572K/17084K, paused 8ms, total 8ms 11-15 12:16:24.057: I/dalvikvm-heap(7351): Grow heap (frag case) to 46.700MB for 31961104-byte allocation 11-15 12:16:24.067: D/dalvikvm(7351): GC_FOR_ALLOC freed <1K, 2% free 47783K/48300K, paused 9ms, total 9ms 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): Writing exception to parcel 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.android.providers.media.MediaDocumentsProvider uri content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:59 from pid=7351, uid=10083 requires android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS, or grantUriPermission() 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.enforceReadPermissionInner(ContentProvider.java:457) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.enforceReadPermission(ContentProvider.java:394) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.enforceFilePermission(ContentProvider.java:387) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.openTypedAssetFile(ContentProvider.java:339) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.content.ContentProviderNative.onTransact(ContentProviderNative.java:305) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at android.os.Binder.execTransact(Binder.java:404) 11-15 12:16:24.227: E/DatabaseUtils(4667): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.run(Native Method) 11-15 12:16:24.237: E/AndroidProtocolHandler(7351): Unable to open content URL: content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A59 11-15 12:16:24.247: D/dalvikvm(7351): GC_EXPLICIT freed 31233K, 4% free 16554K/17084K, paused 2ms+2ms, total 25ms 11-15 12:16:24.247: D/Whitelist(7351): Unlimited access to network resources 11-15 12:16:24.247: I/CordovaLog(7351): Found start page location: index.html 11-15 12:16:24.247: I/CordovaLog(7351): Changing log level to DEBUG(3) 11-15 12:16:24.247: D/CordovaActivity(7351): Resuming the App 11-15 12:16:24.247: D/CordovaActivity(7351): CB-3064: The errorUrl is null 11-15 12:16:24.247: D/CordovaLog(7351): file:///android_asset/www/camera/index.html: Line 58 : URL: content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A59 11-15 12:16:24.247: I/chromium(7351): [INFO:CONSOLE(58)] "URL: content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A59", source: file:///android_asset/www/camera/index.html (58) {noformat} Looks like there is a new permission: MANAGE_DOCUMENTS: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#MANAGE_DOCUMENTS I tried to add {{android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS}} to the AndroidManifest.xml but even after doing this, compiling with ADB and installing, I'm still getting the above error and still unable to pick any photos unless I go through the "Gallery" app first. I made sure to set targetSDK=19 which is when this new permission was added. [~bowserj] do you have any ideas on why Android wouldn't be picking up the new permission? Is the problem in {{DatabaseUtils}} that I assume is some Android app? > Pick image from Library or Photo album on android 4.4 > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CB-5398 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5398 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Android, Plugin Camera > Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 3.2.0 > Environment: android 4.4 > Reporter: julio cesar > Assignee: Mike Billau > > An android 4.4 try to pick a photo using pictureSource.PHOTOLIBRARY or > pictureSource.SAVEDPHOTOALBUM and return type destinationType.FILE_URI. > Now android 4.4, when you select the above options, it opens an "open from" > dialog that let you choose from new places as "Recent", "Drive", "Images" > and "Downloads" (the names might not be the same as I use the device in > spanish and translated it). > If you choose any of them, you get an error, AndroidProtocolHandler, unable > to open content URL: the url here with a content://com.android.providers > format. > I've tested on phonegap 2.9 because this is the version I use, but I suppose > it affects all of them.
