android set image as contact icon/wallpaper

I have written my own ImageViewer and now I want to have Set as functionality like in Android native ImageViewer. I now it is possible since Facebook has it. I've attached a screenshot to make myself more clear.

P.S. I want to give a more detailed explanation of what goes wrong. After I choose "Contact icon" in the menu the list of my contacts appears. When I choose a contact the application force closes. If I choose "Home/Lock screen wallpaper" it opens my phone's gallery. Here is my code snippet:

                Bitmap icon = mBitmap;
                Intent setAs = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
                setAs.setType("image/jpg");
                ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                icon.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
                File f = new File(Environment.ge开发者_JAVA百科tExternalStorageDirectory() + File.separator + "/my_tmp_file.jpg");
                try {
                    f.createNewFile();
                    FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(f);
                    fo.write(bytes.toByteArray());
                } catch (IOException e) {                       
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
                setAs.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/my_tmp_file.jpg"));
                startActivity(Intent.createChooser(setAs, "Set Image As"));

I have also added the consequent permissions to my manifest and I am able to write my image to the sd card of the phone.

From the Google Gallery app source code:

// Called when "Set as" is clicked.
private static boolean onSetAsClicked(MenuInvoker onInvoke,
                                      final Activity activity) {
    onInvoke.run(new MenuCallback() {
        public void run(Uri u, IImage image) {
            if (u == null || image == null) {
                return;
            }

            Intent intent = Util.createSetAsIntent(image);
            activity.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent,
                    activity.getText(R.string.setImage)));
        }
    });
    return true;
}

From Utils.java

// Returns an intent which is used for "set as" menu items.
public static Intent createSetAsIntent(IImage image) {
    Uri u = image.fullSizeImageUri();
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
    intent.setDataAndType(u, image.getMimeType());
    intent.putExtra("mimeType", image.getMimeType());
    return intent;
}

Take a look at the contacts app code. There is an AttachImage activity that launches for attaching an image. The icon photo should be 96x96 px dimension. The action...CROP does face detection and cropping on the image you pass.

Link : AttachImage.java

You should scale and crop the image to 96x96 and pass its URI to the insertPhoto method used in AttachImage activity.

For changing wallpaper you can refer this question's answer.

Update

Code for launching cropping activity:

Intent intent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP", myIntent.getData());
if (myIntent.getStringExtra("mimeType") != null) {
   intent.setDataAndType(myIntent.getData(), myIntent.getStringExtra("mimeType"));
}
intent.putExtra("crop", "true");
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
intent.putExtra("outputX", 96);
intent.putExtra("outputY", 96);
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CROP_PHOTO);

You can simply use WallpaperManager to set the wallpaper.

WallpaperManager.getInstance(this).setBitmap(mBitmap);

use this code

File externalFile=new File("filePath");
Uri sendUri = Uri.fromFile(externalFile);
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
            intent.setDataAndType(sendUri, "image/jpg");
            intent.putExtra("mimeType", "image/jpg");
            startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Set As"), 200);

For Set image as (Contact,wallpaper,etc.)

        Intent setAs = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
        setAs.setType("image/jpg");
        ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
        File f = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
                + File.separator + "/my_tmp_file.jpg");
        try {
            f.createNewFile();
            FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(f);
            fo.write(bytes.toByteArray());
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        setAs.setDataAndType(Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/my_tmp_file.jpg"),
                "image/jpg");
        setAs.putExtra("mimeType", "image/jpg");
        startActivity(Intent.createChooser(setAs, "Set Image As"));

This will solve your problem and set the image as (Contact,Wallpaper,etc..)
