Get File Name with Extension, without Extension, only Extension with just 3 line:

String urlStr = "http://www.example.com/yourpath/foler/test.png";

String fileName = urlStr.substring(urlStr.lastIndexOf('/')+1, urlStr.length());
String fileNameWithoutExtension = fileName.substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf('.'));
String fileExtension = urlStr.substring(urlStr.lastIndexOf("."));

Log.i("File Name", fileName);
Log.i("File Name Without Extension", fileNameWithoutExtension);
Log.i("File Extension", fileExtension);

Log Result:

File Name(13656): test.png
File Name Without Extension(13656): test
File Extension(13656): .png
