uriString nullPointer Error

In Activity A, it has listView and a icon, to intent to Activity B. 

 listview.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() { //listview
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> listView, View view, final int position, long id) {
                Expenses o = (Expenses) obj.getItem(position);
                Uri image = o.getImage();
                Intent intent = new Intent(QuickExpenses.this,AddExpenses.class);
                intent.putExtra("image",image.toString());
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });

  @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { // get action bar icon
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case R.id.action_add_task:
                mClickedPosition = -1;
                Intent intent = new Intent(QuickExpenses.this, AddExpenses.class);
                startActivityForResult(intent, PROJECT_REQUEST_CODE);
                return true;
    }
}

Activity B

 if(getIntent().getExtras()!=null) { //if  has value pass from A
            Uri imageUri=Uri.parse(getIntent().getStringExtra("image"));
            if(imageUri!=null) {
                imageView.setImageURI(imageUri);
            }
            else {
              Toast.makeText(getApplication(),"null",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }

I press the listview , everything seems fine and I can see the image is display in imageview, but when I click the icon, app crashed. I have added if(imageUri!=null) but it still crashed. Why would this happen ?

I follow this https://stackoverflow.com/a/25171292/5156075

Error point to Uri imageUri=Uri.parse(getIntent().getStringExtra("image"));

Update your checks. Your are trying to parse String which can be null, so before parsing it to uri check for null value.

String image = getIntent().getExtras().getString("image");
if(image!= null) {
Uri imageUri=Uri.parse(image);
}
