Question

Problem: I am getting camera intent’s data null in onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) in Samsung S3. But working well on some other devices. I customized my code for getting data and searched this issue in web but nothing found useful.

Code :

    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

    if (requestCode == TAKE_CAMERA && data != null && data.getData() != null)  

           else if (requestCode == TAKE_CAMERA) {
        if (resultCode != RESULT_OK) return;
        Intent intent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
        intent.setDataAndType(tempFileUri, "image/*");

        intent.putExtra("outputX", 90);
        intent.putExtra("outputY", 90);
        intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
        intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
        intent.putExtra("scale", true);
        intent.putExtra("return-data", true);
        startActivityForResult(intent, CROP_CAMERA);
    } else if (requestCode == CROP_CAMERA && data != null) {
        Bitmap photo = data.getExtras().getParcelable("data");
        try {
            FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(tempFileUri.getPath());
            photo.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, out);
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        if (photo != null) {
            imagePhoto.setImageBitmap(photo);

            <my code>
        }

    }

I have Faced the Same Issue and got Work around with Below Way it will definitely help you tr it out once :

For the Solution i have referred below link for solve the issue :

Camera Solution for Samsung Galaxy S3

Write the Below Code While calling captured image :

Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_FROM_CAMERA);

And Get your URI by Below way inside OnActivityResult() Method:

if (resultCode != RESULT_OK)
            return;

        switch (requestCode) {
        case PICK_FROM_CAMERA:
            Log.i("TAG", "Inside PICK_FROM_CAMERA");


            // Describe the columns you'd like to have returned. Selecting from
            // the Thumbnails location gives you both the Thumbnail Image ID, as
            // well as the original image ID

            try {
                Log.i("TAG", "inside Samsung Phones");
                String[] projection = {
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails._ID, // The columns we want
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.IMAGE_ID,
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND,
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.DATA };
                String selection = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND + "=" + // Select
                                                                                // only
                                                                                // mini's
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.MINI_KIND;

                String sort = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails._ID + " DESC";

                // At the moment, this is a bit of a hack, as I'm returning ALL
                // images, and just taking the latest one. There is a better way
                // to
                // narrow this down I think with a WHERE clause which is
                // currently
                // the selection variable
                Cursor myCursor = this.managedQuery(
                        MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
                        projection, selection, null, sort);

                long imageId = 0l;
                long thumbnailImageId = 0l;
                String thumbnailPath = "";

                try {
                    myCursor.moveToFirst();
                    imageId = myCursor

                } finally {
                    // myCursor.close();
