i think here you are not saving the new image you drawn on but just the original one. put your drawing methode so we can tell to you how to proceed ;-) — youssoua, Feb 20 '12 at 14:00

try this snippet, i used it and it worked ;-)

try {
                FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(filename);
               mBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, out);
         } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
         }

            String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
            OutputStream fOut = null;
            File file1 = new File(path, "FitnessGirl"+Contador+".jpg");
            fOut = new FileOutputStream(file1);

            mBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 85, fOut);
            fOut.flush();
            fOut.close();

            MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(),file1.getAbsolutePath(),file1.getName(),file1.getName());

contador is just a string value, a random one one so that i could save many images within same folder without having to deal with exceptions – youssoua Feb 20 '12 at 13:45
