Since API level 30, there have been changes in the package visibility. https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/privacy/package-visibility

For your package manager to work properly, you need to declare <queries> in your AndroidManifest.xml:

Code:

<manifest package="your.package.name">
<queries>
    <intent>
        <action android:name="android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE" />
    </intent>
</queries>
</manifest>

This works only for the default camera apps. If your app is using some 3rd party camera, you can find some info here.

You need to change

File sd_directory = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);

to

File sd_directory = getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);

Android 11 has Storage update. So When using SDK >= 29 must set URI instead of File path.

URI uri = null;   // set this uri in camera Intent
        if (Environment.getExternalStorageState().equals(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED))
        {
           uri =  getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().insert(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, new ContentValues());
        }
        else
        {
            uri =   getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().insert(MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, new ContentValues());
        }
    }

Add this to your manifest outside the application tag, I hope it will resolve your issue

<queries>
        <intent>
            <action android:name="android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE" />
        </intent>
        <intent>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.PICK" />
            <data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.dir/image" />
        </intent>
</queries>
