I am following this link for creating an app which receive image and text from parse and show it in a listview, it's actuly a lazy list. Everything is fine a working perfectally. but In some of smart phones like Nexus4 or some HTC phones images don't show but alternative image from drawable. LogCat shows following exception for these phones, I am not sure why this is happening. If any one could figure it out please.

private Bitmap decodeFile(File f) {
this method starts.
and line 73 is
OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(f);
code for opening directory
public FileCache(Context context) {
if (android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState().equals(
android.os.Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED))
cacheDir = new File(
android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
"ParseListViewImgTxt");
else
cacheDir = context.getCacheDir();
if (!cacheDir.exists())
cacheDir.mkdirs();
}
Ah I figure out the problem is. its actully happened for android 4.4. which needs a permission as stated in developer.android.com.
Your app can not read shared files on the external storage when running on Android 4.4, unless your app has the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. That is, files within the directory returned by getExternalStoragePublicDirectory() are no longer accessible without the permission. However, if you need to access only your app-specific directories, provided by getExternalFilesDir(), then you do not need the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
I just add READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
