Entonces tengo un problema, mencionado anteriormente en la pregunta que hice:Subir imagen (ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE) al almacenamiento de Firebase

Busqué el problema un poco más y apliqué la documentación de Android Studio:https://developer.android.com/training/camera/photobasics.html#TaskPhotoView

Entonces, antes de leer el códigoBásicamente quiero decirQué se necesita: Solo quiero capturar una foto con la cámara y subirla directamente al almacenamiento de Firebase. Para hacer eso, necesito que el Uri contenga la imagen que acabo de tomar (Uri.getLastPathSegment ()), sin embargo, todavía no pude lograrlo.

Ahora, así es como se ve mi código (solo partes relacionadas):AndroidManifest.xml:

<provider
        android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
        android:authorities="com.example.android.fileprovider"
        android:exported="false"
        android:grantUriPermissions="true">
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/file_paths"></meta-data>
</provider>

Tengores / xml / file_paths.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<external-path name="my_images"   path="Android/data/com.serjardovic.firebasesandbox/files/Pictures" />
</paths>

y finalmente elMainActivity.java:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private Button b_gallery, b_capture;
private ImageView iv_image;
private StorageReference storage;
private static final int GALLERY_INTENT = 2;
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST_CODE = 1;
private ProgressDialog progressDialog;

String mCurrentPhotoPath;

private File createImageFile() throws IOException {
    // Create an image file name
    String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
    String imageFileName = "JPEG_" + timeStamp + "_";
    File storageDir = getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);
    File image = File.createTempFile(
            imageFileName,  /* prefix */
            ".jpg",         /* suffix */
            storageDir      /* directory */
    );

    // Save a file: path for use with ACTION_VIEW intents
    mCurrentPhotoPath = image.getAbsolutePath();
    return image;
}

private void dispatchTakePictureIntent() {
    Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    // Ensure that there's a camera activity to handle the intent
    if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
        // Create the File where the photo should go
        File photoFile = null;
        try {
            photoFile = createImageFile();
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            // Error occurred while creating the File...
        }
        // Continue only if the File was successfully created
        if (photoFile != null) {
            Uri photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this,
                    "com.example.android.fileprovider",
                    photoFile);
            takePictureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoURI);
            startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST_CODE);
        }
    }
}


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    storage = FirebaseStorage.getInstance().getReference();

    b_gallery = (Button) findViewById(R.id.b_gallery);
    b_capture = (Button) findViewById(R.id.b_capture);
    iv_image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.iv_image);

    progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);

    b_capture.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            //Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
            dispatchTakePictureIntent();

        }
    });
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    if(requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK){
        progressDialog.setMessage("Uploading...");
        progressDialog.show();
        Uri uri = data.getData();

        StorageReference filepath = storage.child("Photos").child(uri.getLastPathSegment());
        filepath.putFile(uri).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Upload Successful!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                progressDialog.dismiss();
            }
        }).addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Upload Failed!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });
        }
    }
}

Necesito una solucion! Aún así, la aplicación se bloquea después de tomar la foto y presionar el botón de confirmación y obtengo el siguiente informe de bloqueo:

java.lang.RuntimeException: error al entregar el resultado ResultInfo {who = null, request = 1, result = -1, data = null} to activity {com.serjardovic.firebasesandbox / com.serjardovic.firebasesandbox.MainActivity}: java.lang.
