found my mistake. Don't know why, but in

takePhotoIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mMediaUri);

instead mMediaUri i put TAKE_PHOTO_REQUEST =(

it was not marked as mistake, and probably put default library of gallery.

Hello,

It won't fix the problem, but it might show if there's an error occurring if you change 

} else if(resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {

to

} else if(resultCode != RESULT_CANCELED) {

if you keep the ==, it will only show that toast if you hit the back button or cancel the previous activity with any other method. You want the code in that code block to execute when the result isn't ok, but also not cancelled.
