I need to show an image by using the file name only, not from the resource id.

ImageView imgView = new ImageView(this);
imgView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.img1);

I have the image img1 in the drawable folder. I wish to show that image from the file.

How can I do this?

Labeeb is right about why you need to set image using path if your resources are already laying inside the resource folder ,

This kind of path is needed only when your images are stored in SD-Card .

And try the below code to set Bitmap images from a file stored inside a SD-Card .

File imgFile = new  File("/sdcard/Images/test_image.jpg");

if(imgFile.exists()){

    Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath());

    ImageView myImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageviewTest);

    myImage.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);

}

And include this permission in the manifest file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

I think you can use this

Bitmap bmImg = BitmapFactory.decodeFile("path of your img1");
imageView.setImageBitmap(bmImg);

You can also use:



    File imgFile = new  File(“filepath”);
    if(imgFile.exists())
    {
        ImageView myImage = new ImageView(this);
        myImage.setImageURI(Uri.fromFile(imgFile));

    }

This does the bitmap decoding implicit for you.

All the answers are outdated. It is best to use picasso for such purposes. It has a lot of features including background image processing.

Did I mention it is super easy to use:

Picasso.with(context).load(new File(...)).into(imageView);

String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+ "/Images/test.jpg";

File imgFile = new File(path);
if(imgFile.exists())
{
   Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath());
   ImageView imageView=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
  imageView.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);
}

From the official site: http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/load-bitmap.html

ImageView image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imagePreview);           
try {
    image.setImageBitmap(decodeSampledBitmap(picFilename));
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Here the methods:

    private int calculateInSampleSize(
            BitmapFactory.Options options, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
        // Raw height and width of image
        final int height = options.outHeight;
        final int width = options.outWidth;
        int inSampleSize = 1;

        if (height > reqHeight || width > reqWidth) {

            final int halfHeight = height / 2;
            final int halfWidth = width / 2;

            // Calculate the largest inSampleSize value that is a power of 2 and keeps both
            // height and width larger than the requested height and width.
            while ((halfHeight / inSampleSize) > reqHeight
                    && (halfWidth / inSampleSize) > reqWidth) {
                inSampleSize *= 2;
            }
        }

        return inSampleSize;
    }

    private Bitmap decodeSampledBitmap(String pathName,
            int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {

        // First decode with inJustDecodeBounds=true to check dimensions
        final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
        options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
        BitmapFactory.decodeFile(pathName, options);

        // Calculate inSampleSize
        options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth, reqHeight);

        // Decode bitmap with inSampleSize set
        options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
        return BitmapFactory.decodeFile(pathName, options);
    }

//I added this to have a good approximation of the screen size: 
    private Bitmap decodeSampledBitmap(String pathName) {
        Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
        Point size = new Point();
        display.getSize(size);
        int width = size.x;
        int height = size.y;
        return decodeSampledBitmap(pathName, width, height);
    }

How To Show Images From Folder path in Android

Very First: Make Sure You Have Add Permissions into Mainfest file:

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

:Make a Class MyGallery

public class MyGallery extends Activity {


    private GridView gridView;
    private String _location;

    private String newFolder = "/IslamicGif/";
    private String extStorageDirectory = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
    private AdView mAdView;
    private ArrayList<Bitmap> photo = new ArrayList<Bitmap>();
    public static String[] imageFileList;
    TextView gallerytxt;

    public static ImageAdapter imageAdapter;

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        setContentView(R.layout.mygallery);
        /*if (MenuClass.mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
            MenuClass.mInterstitialAd.show();
        }*/

        gallerytxt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.gallerytxt);
        /*gallerytxt.setTextSize(20);
        int[] color = {Color.YELLOW,Color.WHITE};
        float[] position = {0, 1};
        Shader.TileMode tile_mode0= Shader.TileMode.REPEAT; // or TileMode.REPEAT;
        LinearGradient lin_grad0 = new LinearGradient(0, 0, 0, 200,color,position, tile_mode0);
        Shader shader_gradient0 = lin_grad0;
        gallerytxt.getPaint().setShader(shader_gradient0);*/
        ImageButton btn_back = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.btn_back);

    public static boolean isSdPresent() {

    }

    public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

Add your own Drawable to Selector class,and create it res>drawable>selector_shareimage.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/result_bt_mail" android:state_enabled="true" android:state_pressed="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/result_bt_mail" android:state_enabled="true" android:state_focused="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/result_bt_mail" android:state_enabled="true" android:state_selected="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/result_bt_mail_s"/>

enter image description here

Dont forget to add in application tag for sdk version 29 and 30 legacy to add this line

android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"

 <application

You can use:

ImageView imgView = new ImageView(this);
InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/drawable/" + fileName);
imgView.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromStream(is, ""));

You may use this to access a specific folder and get particular image

 public void Retrieve(String path, String Name)
   {
    File imageFile = new File(path+Name);

    if(imageFile.exists()){

        Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path+Name);
        myImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.savedImage);
        myImage.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);
        Toast.makeText(SaveImage.this, myBitmap.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    }
}

And then you can call it by

Retrieve(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()+"/Aqeel/Images/","Image2.PNG");
Toast.makeText(SaveImage.this, "Saved", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

       public static Bitmap decodeFile(String path) {

    o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;

    FileInputStream fis = null;
    try {

        if (o.outHeight > IMAGE_MAX_SIZE || o.outWidth > IMAGE_MAX_SIZE) {
            scale = (int) Math.pow(2, (int) Math.round(Math.log(IMAGE_MAX_SIZE / (double) Math.max(o.outHeight, o.outWidth)) / Math.log(0.5)));
        }

        // Decode with inSampleSize

        o2.inSampleSize = scale;

        fis = new FileInputStream(f);
        b = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(fis, null, o2);
        fis.close();

    } catch (Exception e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block

    } catch (Exception e) {
        MyLog.e("Exception showBitmapFromFile");

if you are using image loading in List view then use Aquery concept .

https://github.com/AshishPsaini/AqueryExample

     AQuery  aq= new AQuery((Activity) activity, convertView);
            //load image from file, down sample to target width of 250 pixels .gi 
    File file=new File("//pic/path/here/aaaa.jpg");
    if(aq!=null)
    aq.id(holder.pic_imageview).image(file, 250);

Most of the answers are working but no one mentioned that the high resolution image will slow down the app , In my case i used images RecyclerView which was taking 0.9 GB of device memory In Just 30 Images.

I/Choreographer: Skipped 73 frames! The application may be doing too much work on its main thread.

The solution is Sipmle you can degrade the quality like here : Reduce resolution of Bitmap

But I use Simple way , Glide handles the rest of work

fanContext?.let {
            Glide.with(it)
                .load(Uri.fromFile(File(item.filePath)))
                .into(viewHolder.imagePreview)
        }
