If you have declare a bitmap object and you want to display it or store this bitmap object. but first you have to assign any image , and you may use the button click event, this code will only demonstrate that how to store the drawable image in bitmap Object.

Bitmap contact_pic = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(
                           v.getContext().getResources(),
                           R.drawable.android_logo
                     );

Now you can use this bitmap object, whether you want to store it, or to use it in google maps while drawing a pic on fixed latitude and longitude, or to use some where else
