That did it when it comes to my own call to: getContentResolver().openFileDescriptor(validUri, "r");
It is now calling openAssetFile() in my content provider. However, in the usage of the send functionality with the content://... uri: Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); share.setType(StylePad.DEFAULT_MIME_PNG); share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, validUri); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, getString(R.string.activity_title_share))); I am now getting a IllegalArgumentException thrown, and my openFile/ openAssetFile never gets called (the Exception is hitting before it would get there I guess). Here is the Exception: 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: column '_data' does not exist 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.database.AbstractCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(AbstractCursor.java: 314) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.database.CursorWrapper.getColumnIndexOrThrow(CursorWrapper.java: 99) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.UriImage.initFromContentUri(UriImage.java:160) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.UriImage.<init>(UriImage.java:90) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.MMSMessage.addImage(MMSMessage.java:1076) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.ConversationList.addMedia(ConversationList.java: 7095) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.ConversationList.addAttachment(ConversationList.java: 8370) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.ConversationList.handleIntent(ConversationList.java: 1860) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.ConversationList.access$2800(ConversationList.java: 180) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.mms.ui.ConversationList $ThreadListQueryHandler.onQueryComplete(ConversationList.java:2999) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.content.AsyncQueryHandler.handleMessage(AsyncQueryHandler.java: 344) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4627) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit $MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:871) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:629) 04-26 11:12:54.322: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(12440): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) Looking at the source: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android-apps/2.0_r1/com/android/mms/ui/UriImage.java#UriImage.initFromContentUri%28android.content.Context%2Candroid.net.Uri%29 So the Send functionality is querying my Provider's query() method, which I can see, but it is looking for two columns that I simply don't have, Part.FILENAME (column fn) and then if not found, column Part._DATA (column _data). Any ideas how to respond to this? On Apr 26, 3:30 am, Kostya Vasilyev <kmans...@gmail.com> wrote: > Paul, > > Don't know if this is a typo, but - you have Uri.fromFile in the code > quoted below.
