        } else {
            return null;
        }

        return mediaFile;
    }
}

Part I need to change: (I did a test with edittext txtum, but how did the error not do the rest).

 String unidademetalica = txtum.getText().toString();
        String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss",
                Locale.getDefault()).format(new Date());
        File mediaFile;
        if (type == MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE) {
            mediaFile = new File(mediaStorageDir.getPath() + File.separator
                    + "IMG_" + timeStamp + ".jpg");
        } else if (type == MEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO) {
            mediaFile = new File(mediaStorageDir.getPath() + File.separator
                    + "VID_" + timeStamp + ".mp4");
        } else {
            return null;

I need that part of the code, to be added the values of the fields edittext and checkbox, edittext and checkbox is in the only available layout (main_activcity)

  • Passing the eye quickly, because I’m on the cell phone, I didn’t see any Edittext. And, the error occurs when you do what?

  • The same way you create a reference to a button btnRecordVideo = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnRecordVideo); You should do the same with Edittext and Checkbox.

  • I apologize, send the code of the beginning of the project, I am updating now.

  • Emanuelsn, the error occurs when I call the "btnCapturePicture" button, if I do not use the string unidademetalica the program runs and saves the picture perfectly more accurate than in the title of it has what the user typed in the txtum field.

Gives error in line String unidademetalica = txtum.getText().toString(); because you didn’t get the reference to Edittext R.id.txtum

In order to access txtum you will have to put, in the method onCreate, the following line:

txtum = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtum);  

I also believe that this line must be wrong:

EditText unidade = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtum);
