Images aren't shown in gallery android

[poPaTheGuru]

I am trying to pick images from gallery (the same for both multiple or single) but when it opens the gallery, it's empty.
If I try to change the folder, it shows the number of photos and a thumbnail of the last photo, but when i open it, is empty.
This is happening only on android, on iOS is working well.
I have all the required permissions in my AndroidManifest.xml and Info.plist

Also, when i open the gallery it kills my application if I don't set imageLoader: 'UNIVERSAL', but I don't know if that might be the problem.

I have found an older issue that was resolved, but it seems that somehow it came back.

I also tried the solution from there, and it didn't worked.

Here is the issue: https://github.com/shijingsh/react-native-customized-image-picker/issues/90

Same issue for me after bumping targetSDKVersion to 30, because newly published apps since August require targetSDK 30, and updates to existing app will require targetSDK 30 in November.
What I did to working app:

1. Bumped targetSDK to 30
2. Bumped complileSDK to 30
3. Kept requestLegacyExternalStorage line in manifest file.

Android 10 seems to be working fine; However, on Android 11 no permissions are being asked, no gallery content is visible, taking images from camera/cropping is not working too.
Seems like it requires fixes in underlying RXGallery, so bad luck :(

any update on this ?
facing same issue in android 11. working fine with android 10.

[poPaTheGuru]

I used another library after all :(
sorry that I can't help

This package crash on Android 11 , i resolve this problem by :
Adding imageLoader: 'UNIVERSAL' to openPicker params

I am having this issue, any solutions yet

[hpsurekha]

Does anyone find the solution for this?
I am also facing the same issue in Android 11. After compiling the build with SDK - 30, it stops working in Android 10.
below is the configuration of my grade file.

ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "30.0.2"
        minSdkVersion = 19
        compileSdkVersion = 30
        targetSdkVersion = 30
        androidXCore = "1.0.2"
    }

Eagerly waiting for a solution, Please update the existing library with Android 11 configurations.

PS: Adding imageLoader: 'UNIVERSAL' to openPicker params
this is not working for me.

@ALL does anyone find any solution for this?
@shijingsh, can you please look into this and update the library.

[jbrainz]

any updates on this, i'm facing the same issue.

[liukefu2050]

fixed it on v1.3.2
make sure:

 buildToolsVersion = "30.0.2"
 compileSdkVersion = 30
 targetSdkVersion = 30

  repositories {
       google()
       jcenter()
       mavenCentral()
       maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
   }

add permission

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

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

add requestLegacyExternalStorage and ScopedStorage

 <application
   ...
   android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
   android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
   ...
     <meta-data android:name="ScopedStorage" android:value="true" />
   
 </application>

After updating to v1.3.2 now is crashing on Android 11.
Setting imageLoader: 'UNIVERSAL' does not solve it either.
Does somebody has another suggestion?

Thanks!

I ended up using another library.

[liukefu2050]

@ton21 Whether the error stack can be provided, I'm sorry, there is no sufficient test

[dvisescu]

@liukefu2050 It requires fixes in underlying RXGallery

in MediaUtils.java -> Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, projection.toArray(new String[projection.size()]), selection,
selectionArgs, MediaStore.Images.Media.DATE_ADDED + " DESC LIMIT " + limit + " OFFSET " + offset);

throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid token LIMIT

Please help if any thing else we need to change.
