Answer 1

You can use the EXTRA_OUTPUT extra to specify a destination Uri for images taken with ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE (but not RECORD_SOUND_ACTION; for that, the returned bundle will contain the file path).

An example can be found here, excerpt below:

Loosely quoting yanokwa:

// fire off the intent
Intent i = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
i.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
           Uri.fromFile(new File("<temp file path here>")));
startActivityForResult(i, mRequestCode);

BTW, a similar question can be found here.

Answer 2

I am not sure but my first thought would be to set the data uri of the intent and see if that does anything.

Answer 3

AFAIK this is not possible from firing off Intents.

When the given activity returns the picture/voice data should be in the result. Take that data and then save it from within your activity to your desired location. The camera/recorder activity simply handles pictures/audio and then returns the result back to you to handle.
