  • @SharpEdge I am sending images to server and need to get those images back and display like photo gallery... – Prasanna Sep 01 '15 at 11:59
  • @Kottary I stored the images into server.. need to display those images like photo gallery. – Prasanna Sep 01 '15 at 12:00
  • @Prasanna then before sending the image to server, save it in LRU cache. Then you can use grid view to populate those images. – Sachin Kottary Sep 01 '15 at 12:03
  • @Kottary I want to get those images on another button click. Thats why i am stucked in this step and also am a newbie to android. – Prasanna Sep 01 '15 at 12:06

It's not recomended to save images into the database. The Blob format is good for storing amorphous data, but you need to do some serious tricks to convert it back into a Image format.

However, might we suggest instead to save the image on the local storage and store in the database only the identifier for the image?
