Try this:
Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setType("image/*"); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), PICK_IMAGE);
This brings up the Documents app. To allow the user to also use any gallery apps they might have installed:
Intent getIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); getIntent.setType("image/*");
Intent pickIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI); pickIntent.setType("image/*"); Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(getIntent, "Select Image"); chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, new Intent[] {pickIntent}); startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, PICK_IMAGE);

Absolutely. Try this:
Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setType("image/*"); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), PICK_IMAGE);
Don't forget also to create the constant **PICK_IMAGE**, so you can recognize when the user comes back from the image gallery Activity:
public static final int PICK_IMAGE = 1;
@Override public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { if (requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) { //TODO: action } }

That's how I call the image gallery. Put it in and see if it works for you.
