Question

Answer 1

Finally I solved this problem.

Step:- 1. I wrote some code in onCreate() for get intent data from previous Activity

 private  Bitmap bitmap;

 Intent intent = getIntent();

        if (getIntent().getExtras() != null)
        {
            // for get data from intent

            bitmap = intent.getParcelableExtra("PRODUCT_PHOTO");

            // for set this picture to imageview

            your_imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);

             sharedPreferences();

        }else
        {
            retrivesharedPreferences();
        }

2 create sharedPreferences() and put this code

 private void sharedPreferences()
    {
        SharedPreferences shared = getSharedPreferences("App_settings", MODE_PRIVATE);
        SharedPreferences.Editor editor = shared.edit();
        editor.putString("PRODUCT_PHOTO", encodeTobase64(bitmap));
        editor.commit();
    }

3 create retrivesharedPreferences() this method and put this code,

private void retrivesharedPreferences()
    {
      SharedPreferences shared = getSharedPreferences("MyApp_Settings", MODE_PRIVATE);
        String photo = shared.getString("PRODUCT_PHOTO", "photo");
        assert photo != null;
        if(!photo.equals("photo"))
        {
            byte[] b = Base64.decode(photo, Base64.DEFAULT);
            InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(b);
            bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
            your_imageview.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        }

    }

4 Write encodeTobase64() Method to encode your bitmap into string base64- and put code in this method

 public static String encodeTobase64(Bitmap image) {
        Bitmap bitmap_image = image;
        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        bitmap_image.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, baos);
        byte[] b = baos.toByteArray();
        String imageEncoded = Base64.encodeToString(b, Base64.DEFAULT);

        return imageEncoded;
    }

I hope it will helpful for you.
