your error clearly says that java.io.FileNotFoundException: /filename

please provide exact path "/sdcard/filename"

new FileOutputStream(getExternalStorageDirectory()+"filename");

OR

String imageFilePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/name.png";

note: add permission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE in manifest file.

that means you have no SD-card – Never Quit Apr 02 '12 at 12:59
refer http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html (Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"filename"); – Mohammed Azharuddin Shaikh Apr 02 '12 at 13:00
