App runs on emulator, but unable to run on my device

Question

I'm creating an application with image sharing elements. Everything works fine except when I try to run my app on emulator, it's unable to show the correct output as per the code. On the other hand, when I test my application on my Android device, it shows an Unexpected Error. I tried to restart my device and also created a new emulator, but none of them were helpful for me.

The offending code, line 55 on FullImageActivity is

Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.id.full_image_view);

Here is the LogCat

Answer 1

check your second argument type for resources which is an ID. you should provide a valid argument type for this specific resource i.e, use R.Drawable.FILENAME what you are doing is that you providing the Resources an id argument which causing you an Unexpected Error Its Like fueling your petrol car with diesel :x
