If you have path where your images are stored, use this code to get image as bitmap.

FileInputStream in;
BufferedInputStream buf;
try {
        in = new FileInputStream("/sdcard/test2.png");
         buf = new BufferedInputStream(in);
         Bitmap bMap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(buf);
         image.setImageBitmap(bMap);
         if (in != null) {
        in.close();
         }
         if (buf != null) {
        buf.close();
         }
   } catch (Exception e) {
       Log.e("Error reading file", e.toString());
 }

You need to iterate through the path: ex

File f=new File(“path of dir”);

Now get all files using: f.listFiles();

This is s fair idea……….
Hope it will help……..
