How to modify file selector options in a webview?

In my application, I'm using a webview page in which users can select files to upload. It's only showing two options for Camera and Documents. But in google chrome or even other webview applications, there are more options, such as voice recorder.



I'm using WebChromeClient as base for my pages. I used the startActivityOpenChooser before file opener prompt, which I believe this function is all I need to change, if possible.



// openFileChooser for Android < 3.0
public void openFileChooser(ValueCallback<Uri> uploadMsg) {
openFileChooser(uploadMsg, "");
}
...
public void startActivityOpenChooser(String acceptType){
File imageStorageDir = new File(mainActivity.getExternalCacheDir(), "user_upload_files");

if (!imageStorageDir.exists()) {
// Create user_upload_files at sdcard
imageStorageDir.mkdirs();
}

// Create camera captured image file path and name
File file = new File(imageStorageDir + File.separator + "IMG_" + String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis()) + ".jpg");
mainActivity.mCapturedImageURI = Uri.fromFile(file);

// Camera capture image intent
final Intent captureIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
captureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mainActivity.mCapturedImageURI);

Intent i = null;
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 19) {
i = new Intent();
i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
} else {
i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
}
i.setType("*/*");

// Create file chooser intent
Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(i, mainActivity.getResources().getString(R.string.choose_file_for_upload));

// Set camera intent to file chooser
chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, new Parcelable{captureIntent});

// On select image call onActivityResult method of activity
mainActivity.startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, MainActivity.FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE);
}
