Trying to attach a file from SD Card to email

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                sendIntent.setType("image/jpeg");
                sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Photo");
                sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://sdcard/dcim/Camera/filename.jpg"));
                sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Enjoy the photo");
                startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Email:"));

So if I launch using the Gmail menu context It shows the attachment, lets me type who the email is to, 

and edit the body & subject. No big deal. I hit send, and it sends. The only thing is the attachment 

does NOT get sent.

So. I figured, why not try it w/ the Email menu context (for my backup email account on my phone).

It shows the attachment, but no text at all in the body or subject. When I send it, the attachment 

sends correctly. That would lead me to believe something is quite wrong. Do I need a new permission

in the Manifest launch an intent to send email w/ attachment? What am I doing wrong?

Also getting the same problem

Code:

Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);    emailIntent.setType("jpeg/image");    emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]    {"me@gmail.com"});    emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,    "Test Subject");    emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,    "go on read the emails");    Log.v(getClass().getSimpleName(), "sPhotoUri=" + Uri.parse("file:/"+ sPhotoFileName));    emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:/"+ sPhotoFileName));    startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));

Looks like the email provider is attaching a 0 length file. When I check the filesystem the file is there and correct. The code which creates the image file is well finished prior to the attempt to email it.

Anyone fixed this without magic reboots (I've already tried that)?

Update!

Path for me should have been

file:///sdcard/DumbDumpers/DumbDumper.jpg

you need the extra / for the root

so it's like

file:// + /sdcard/DumbDumpers/DumbDumper.jpg

combined is

file:///sdcard/DumbDumpers/DumbDumper.jpg

So in my example you need:

emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://"+ sPhotoFileName));

hope this helps. Took me ages to debug.
