I use Android Universal Image Loading in my android app to load images from the internet and it work just perfect, no outOfMemory errors.
but I tried to use it with local already existing images in my device (cache directory e.g /data/data/package-name/cache/...) but without success I did use file:// plus the link of the image but it seem that I have something going wrong as it sometimes load the images and often doesn't.
I tried to create my own local ImageDownloader by extending the ImageDownloader but didn't work either.
to be clear : it's not a permission problem, it's not a path problem!, and the images physically exist in the cache directory.
here's the error i have in the logcat :

a remark on this is the added /storage/sdcard0/Android/ coming from nowhere in my code!
