I guess you want to load a picture into ImageView, then you can do ImageView.setBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(FIleDir, yourpic))

Yes the idea is to put the pict to imageview, than save the blob to database, but i need to select the picture manualy from device storage. My problem is how to show the dialog box for the storage.

You can use ContentChooser to show dialog box, then get a picture to store the bitmap to blob.
This is the example
