Thanks for your reply, that's what I'm planing to do.My other question was where do I temporary store the image ? I can store it in EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, Context.getCacheDir() or Context.getFilesDir() ... But what's preferable and why ? (considering: deletion timing, permissions, locks, etc.) Personally, I would choose cache dir.
