hi,
u can get the absolute path of your image stored in the Gallery of your phone by
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
here there are different options available. You can use DIRECTORY_PICTURES where all the images are stored in the SD Card.
now u can use this to get your directory file.
u can try this out it works for me
