How to solve this error ? after selecting image from gallery, app crash error.

Answer 1

This error mostly occurs when the data you are filling in the intent is more than the system is able to transfer through Intent bundle. Check to see the size of all the things you are putting in the bundle. And also check to see that the image you are selecting from gallery is not very large, as the system may not be able to transfer the image from gallery to you app. The camera code is working because the camera app transfers a low-resolution image through the Intent.
