android camera : Failure delivering result ResultInfo{who=null, request=0, result=-1, data=null} to activity

Question

i've really frustased to solve my problem, i have an application that using camera, when camera capture a photo, it will display on activity, when i'm not using cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mPhotoUri); photo will display on activity, but the name and path file is not like what i wanted. i'm using galaxy tab for compiling it, i have follow tutorial to solve my problem from here , here and here but my application still force close and eror, this is my code :

{

                File sdCard= Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
                File path = new File (sdCard.getAbsolutePath() + "/android/data/spaj_foto");
                path.mkdir();
                File file= new File (path,"spaj_foto.png");
                String filePath ="/android/data/spaj_foto/spaj_foto.png";

                  try {
                      file.createNewFile();
                    } catch (IOException e) {}       


                 mPhotoUri = Uri.fromFile(file); 
                 values.put( MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA, file.getPath());
                 mPhotoUri=getContentResolver().insert(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);

                  Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); 
                  cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mPhotoUri);
                  startActivityForResult(cameraIntent,TAKE_PHOTO_CODE );  

            }

activityresult method :

@Override
        protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {  
            if (requestCode == TAKE_PHOTO_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data"); 
                image_spaj.setImageBitmap(photo);


                // CALL THIS METHOD TO GET THE URI FROM THE BITMAP
                Uri tempUri = getImageUri(getApplicationContext(), photo);

                // CALL THIS METHOD TO GET THE ACTUAL PATH
                File finalFile = new File(getRealPathFromURI(tempUri));

//              System.out.println(mImageCaptureUri);
            }  
        }
        public String getRealPathFromURI(Uri mPhotoUri) {
            Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(mPhotoUri, null, null, null, null); 
            cursor.moveToFirst(); 
            int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA); 
            return cursor.getString(idx); 
        }

        public Uri getImageUri(Context inContext, Bitmap inImage) {
            ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            inImage.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
            String path = Images.Media.insertImage(inContext.getContentResolver(), inImage, "Title", null);
            return Uri.parse(path);
        }

this is my logcat says:

Make sure you have both Camera Permission and READ/WRITE External Storage Permissions.

Try this is working like charm with me

private String selectedImagePath = "";
    final private int PICK_IMAGE = 1;
    final private int CAPTURE_IMAGE = 2;

public Uri setImageUri() {
        // Store image in dcim
        File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/DCIM/", "image" + new Date().getTime() + ".png");
        Uri imgUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
        this.imgPath = file.getAbsolutePath();
        return imgUri;
    }


    public String getImagePath() {
        return imgPath;
    }

btnGallery.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent intent = new Intent();
                intent.setType("image/*");
                intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
                startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, ""), PICK_IMAGE);

            }
        });

        btnCapture.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                final Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
                intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, setImageUri());
                startActivityForResult(intent, CAPTURE_IMAGE);
            }
        });

@Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        if (resultCode != Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
            if (requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) {
                selectedImagePath = getAbsolutePath(data.getData());
                imgUser.setImageBitmap(decodeFile(selectedImagePath));
            } else if (requestCode == CAPTURE_IMAGE) {
                selectedImagePath = getImagePath();
                imgUser.setImageBitmap(decodeFile(selectedImagePath));
            } else {
                super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
            }
        }

    }


public Bitmap decodeFile(String path) {
        try {
            // Decode image size
            BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
            o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
            BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path, o);
            // The new size we want to scale to
            final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 70;

            // Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
            int scale = 1;
            while (o.outWidth / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE && o.outHeight / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE)
                scale *= 2;

            // Decode with inSampleSize
            BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
            o2.inSampleSize = scale;
            return BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path, o2);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return null;

    }

public String getAbsolutePath(Uri uri) {
        String[] projection = { MediaColumns.DATA };
        @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
        Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
        if (cursor != null) {
            int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaColumns.DATA);
            cursor.moveToFirst();
            return cursor.getString(column_index);
        } else
            return null;
    }
