Here is a way that worked for me:

HttpGet httpRequest = new HttpGet(url);
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpResponse response = (HttpResponse) httpclient

InputStream is = bufferedHttpEntity.getContent();
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "");
//or bitmap
//Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
