public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

String LOG_TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();

Button buttonUpload, buttonDownload;
RadioGroup radioGroup;
ImageView imageviewResult;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    buttonUpload = findViewById(R.id.upload_button);
    buttonDownload = findViewById(R.id.download_button);
    radioGroup = findViewById(R.id.radio_group);
    imageviewResult = findViewById(R.id.resultant_imageview);

    buttonUpload.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            uploadImage();
        }
    });

    buttonDownload.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            downloadImage();
        }
    });
}

private void uploadImage() {
    // Start by getting our StorageReference
    FirebaseStorage storage = FirebaseStorage.getInstance();
    StorageReference rootRef = storage.getReference();
    StorageReference bearRef = rootRef.child("images/bear.jpg");
    final ProgressDialog progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
    progressDialog.setTitle("Uploading");
    progressDialog.show();

    // Get the data from the image as bytes
    ImageView bearImage = getSelectedBearImage();
    bearImage.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
    bearImage.buildDrawingCache();
    Bitmap bitmap = bearImage.getDrawingCache();
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, baos);

    // Upload it to our reference

    buttonDownload.setEnabled(false);
    uploadTask.addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
