Implement custom dialog to open folder

In the old article "JPG File Chooser", custom dialog was implemented to load individual image(jpg). In this article, the custom dialog is used to open folder, instead of individual file. After dismissed, the images(jpg) in the selected folder will be listed.

dialoglayout.xml, layout of the custom dislog.

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/customdialog"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:padding="20dp"
    android:minWidth="300dp">
    <LinearLayout
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_margin="10dp">
        <ImageView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"/>
        <Button
            android:id="@+id/up"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Parent folder"/>
    </LinearLayout>
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/selectfolder"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
         
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/dialoglist"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
