androidandroid-studioevent handlingfilewebview

I am new in android and now try to develope web application. I have use several days to make input type file work perfectly in webview. Until I follow and use this code to handle file chooser in webview.

enter link description here

When I use AVD Nexus with gingerbeard and click input type file, it can show two option (camera or gallery).
The probelm is when I use AVD Nexus with 6.0 and click input type file, it open file manager without showing option camera or gallery.
I want to show input option dialog every time user click input type file.

How can I do this? Thankyou for your help.

Add this for android 5.0 and above

private static final int INPUT_FILE_REQUEST_CODE = 1;

private Context mContext=YourActivity.this; 
private static final int REQUEST_CAMERA = 111; 

// For Android 5.0

public boolean onShowFileChooser(WebView view, ValueCallback<Uri[]> filePath, WebChromeClient.FileChooserParams fileChooserParams)
{
    //  Log.d(TAG,"ShowFileChooser For Android 5.0 ");
    if (mFilePathCallback != null) {
        mFilePathCallback.onReceiveValue(null);
    }
    mFilePathCallback = filePath;
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {

Check permissions for marshmallow

private static boolean hasPermissions(Context context, String... permissions) {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M && context != null && permissions != null) {
