I have a image stored in SD card of my phone. I want to show it in a image view. I know the location of the file. On the oncreate of the activity is there a simple way to say something like 

ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);    
String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() "Images/image.jpg";     
img.setsrc = path ;

Please let me know if there is any way to do this. Thank you.

ImageView img;
img.setImageBitmap(bmp);

Hope this helps.
