Android: App crash when image is picked from gallery which is downloaded from hangout.

[jkpatel1463]

Hello

App Crashed due to images from hangout and Google photos are displayed while opening Gallery for image picking.

Code:

public function pickImage(callback:Function, cropping:Boolean = false):void
{
	trace("ImagePickHelper - pickImage: " + AirImagePicker.instance.getGalleryPermissionStatus().value);
	if (AirImagePicker.instance.getGalleryPermissionStatus() ==AirImagePickerPermissionStatus.DENIED 
		|| AirImagePicker.instance.getGalleryPermissionStatus() ==AirImagePickerPermissionStatus.RESTRICTED){
		callback(AirImagePickerRecentImagesEvent.PERMISSION_ERROR);
		return;
		}
	_callback = callback;
	AirImagePicker.instance.displayImagePicker(-1, -1, cropping);
}
		

Stack trace:
