万一有用的话;我这样做是为了得到位图:

InputStream is = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(imageUri);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);

以上答案正确。我遇到了一个不同的问题，在HTC M8中，我的应用程序在从图库中选择图像时崩溃。我得到的图像路径是空值。我用以下解决方案进行了修正和优化。onActivityResult方法

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if ((requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE) && (resultCode == RESULT_OK)) {
     if (data != null) {

            Uri selectedImageUri = null;
            selectedImageUri = data.getData();
            String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };

            Cursor imageCursor = mainActivity.getContentResolver().query(
                    selectedImageUri, filePathColumn, null, null, null);

            if (imageCursor == null) {
                return;
            }

            imageCursor.moveToFirst();
            int columnIndex = imageCursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
            picturePath = imageCursor.getString(columnIndex);
            if (picturePath == null) {
                picturePath = selectedImageUri.getPath();
                String wholeID = DocumentsContract
                        .getDocumentId(selectedImage);

                // Split at colon, use second item in the array
                String id = wholeID.split(":")[1];

                String[] column = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };

                // where id is equal to
                String sel = MediaStore.Images.Media._ID + "=?";

                Cursor cursor = mainActivity.getContentResolver().query(
                        MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
                        column, sel, new String[] { id }, null);

                columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(column[0]);

                if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
                    picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
                }

                cursor.close();
            }
            picturePathAbs = new File(picturePath).getAbsolutePath();
            imageCursor.close();
        }

}

这是一个完整的解决方案。我刚刚用@mad在下面的答案中提供的信息更新了这个示例代码。还可以查看下面来自@Khobaib的解决方案，解释如何处理picasa图像。

更新

我刚刚回顾了我最初的答案，并创建了一个简单的Android Studio项目，您可以从github签出并直接导入到您的系统。

(注意多个文件选择仍然需要工作)

单张图片选择

感谢用户mad，支持来自文件探索者的图像。

    private String selectedImagePath;

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        findViewById(R.id.Button01)

                    public void onClick(View arg0) {

                        // in onCreate or any event where your want the user to
                        // select a file
                        Intent intent = new Intent();

                        intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
                        startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
                                "Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);
                    }
                });
    }

    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            if (requestCode == SELECT_PICTURE) {
                Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
                selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);
            }
        }
    }

    /**
     * helper to retrieve the path of an image URI
     */
    public String getPath(Uri uri) {
            // just some safety built in 
            if( uri == null ) {
                // TODO perform some logging or show user feedback
                return null;
            }
            // try to retrieve the image from the media store first
            // this will only work for images selected from gallery
            String[] projection = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
            Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
            if( cursor != null ){
                int column_index = cursor
                .getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
                cursor.moveToFirst();
                String path = cursor.getString(column_index);
                cursor.close();
                return path;
            }
            // this is our fallback here
            return uri.getPath();
    }

}

选择多张图片

因为有人在评论中要求这些信息，所以最好收集信息。

在intent上设置一个额外的参数EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE:

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

在Result处理中检查该参数:

if (Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE.equals(data.getAction()))
        && Intent.hasExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM)) {
    // retrieve a collection of selected images
    ArrayList<Parcelable> list = intent.getParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM);
    // iterate over these images
    if( list != null ) {
       for (Parcelable parcel : list) {
         Uri uri = (Uri) parcel;
         // TODO handle the images one by one here
       }
   }
} 

注意，只有API级别18+支持这一点。

这是我对这个主题的回顾，收集了这里的所有信息，再加上其他相关的堆栈溢出问题。它从某些提供者返回图像，同时处理内存不足的情况和图像旋转。它支持画廊，picasa和文件管理器，如下拉框。用法很简单:作为输入，构造函数接收内容解析器和uri。输出是最终的位图。

hcpl的方法在kitkat之前工作得很好，但不能与DocumentsProvider API一起工作。为此，只需简单地遵循官方的Android文档提供者教程:https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider.html ->打开一个文档，位图部分。

简单地，我使用了hcpl的代码并扩展了它:如果图像的检索路径的文件抛出异常，我调用这个函数:

private Bitmap getBitmapFromUri(Uri uri) throws IOException {
        ParcelFileDescriptor parcelFileDescriptor =
             getContentResolver().openFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
        FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = parcelFileDescriptor.getFileDescriptor();
        Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor(fileDescriptor);
        parcelFileDescriptor.close();
        return image;
}
