onActivityResult is called before ACTION_PICK is finished

I'm having some problems selecting an image from my gallery and using that in my application. I use this intent:

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_SELECT_PHOTO);

And that brings me to the gallery where I can pick an image. But the moment I select one, onActivityResult is called immediately, while the ACTION_PICK hasn't finished everything. Well, I guess that's the problem. I've read I should try to change the launchMode to singleTop on the activity in the manifest but this didn't work. Or should I change the launchMode of "ACTION_PICK"-activity? And is this even possible?

final static int ACTIVITY_SELECT_PHOTO = 0;
final static int ACTIVITY_CAMERA_PHOTO = 1;

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent imageReturnedIntent) { 
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, imageReturnedIntent); 
    Log.d("onActivityresult", "req = " + requestCode + ", result = " + resultCode);
    switch(requestCode) { 
    case ACTIVITY_SELECT_PHOTO:
        if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){  

            Uri selectedImageUri=imageReturnedIntent.getData();
            String actualPath=getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageUri);
            File file=new File(actualPath);
            Bitmap b=decodeFile(file); //this is new bitmap which you can use for your purpose 

            try {
                ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 55, os);
                compressedByteArray = os.toByteArray();
                iv.setImageBitmap(b);
                currentUser.put("picture", compressedByteArray);
                Toast t = Toast.makeText(this, "Uploading picture...", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                t.show();
                currentUser.save();
            } catch (ParseException e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    case ACTIVITY_CAMERA_PHOTO:
        if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){

            Bundle extras = imageReturnedIntent.getExtras();

            //THE LINE BELOW THIS ONE GIVES NULLPOINTEREX WHICH IS OBVIOUS BECAUSE IT's ANOTHER //CASE      
            Bitmap bmp = (Bitmap)extras.get("data");
            ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 55, os);
            compressedByteArray = os.toByteArray();
            bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(compressedByteArray, 0, compressedByteArray.length);
            iv.setImageBitmap(bmp);
            currentUser.put("picture", compressedByteArray);

        }
        try {
            Toast t = Toast.makeText(this, "Uploading picture...", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
            t.show();
            currentUser.save();
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

ResultCode = -1 (so RESULT_OK) but it gives me an error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Failure delivering result ResultInfo{who=null, request=0, result=-1, data=Intent { dat=content://media/external/images/media/173 }} to activity {com.tapazz/com.tapazz.ShowProfileActivity}: java.lang.NullPointerException

The nullPointerException comes from a different RequestCode (see "THIS LINE" above)

The app stops, but when I restart it, I see that it has picked the photo like it should do

This may or may not be related, but your switch() statement doesn't break after each case. So, if it enters the ACTIVITY_SELECT_PHOTO case, it will also process the ACTIVITY_CAMERA_PHOTO as well

switch() {
   case 1:
      break;

   case 2:
      break;
}

Notice that you always need a break; statement at the end of each case.
