Answer 1

try this

step 1. get your bitmap in to drawable obje like this

Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource( getResources(), R.drawable.ic_launcher);

step 2 save in your storage like this

 String extStorageDirectory =  Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
    File file = new File(extStorageDirectory, "launcher.PNG");
    try {
        FileOutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
        bm.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, outStream);
        outStream.flush();
        outStream.close();
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Don't forget to add android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
