I can choose single image from gallery but can't choose multiple images.

I google information about that and found add EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE to putExtra, but it doesn't work for me. Can anyone help me?

My problem is file upload on webview. I am targeting at os6, os7 or os8.

my code :

    mWebview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {

        protected void openFileChooser(ValueCallback uploadMsg, String acceptType) {

            mUploadMessage = uploadMsg;

            Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);

            i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);

            i.setType("image/*");

            i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

            i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_PICK);

            startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(i, "File Browser"), FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE);

        }

Thanks everyone. Finally, I can choose both single image or multiple images from gallery. This is my solution, I need to clean up unnecessary code though.

    mWebview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {

        protected void openFileChooser(ValueCallback uploadMsg, String acceptType) {

            mUploadMessage = uploadMsg;

            i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

            startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(i, "File Browser"), FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE);

Intent intent = new Intent();

intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);

intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);

intent.setType("image*//*");

String extraMimeTypes = {"image/*"};

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, extraMimeTypes);

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE_GALLERY);

Try this. Working in all versions.

use image picker

 ImagePicker.create(UploadPhotosActivity.this)

            .showCamera(false)

            .limit(2)  // set your limit here

            .imageTitle(getString(R.string.select_image))

            .folderTitle(getString(R.string.folder))

            .theme(R.style.ImagePickerTheme)

            .start(RC_CODE_PICKER);  

add these to your dependency

compile 'com.github.esafirm.android-image-picker:imagepicker:1.5.0'

compile 'com.github.esafirm.android-image-picker:rximagepicker:1.5.0'

Edit your code i.e. Remove:

i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_PICK);

Follow below code :

Intent intent = new Intent();

intent.setType("image/*");

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);

startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,"Select Picture"), 1);
