Cannot output correct hash in Java. What is wrong?

Question

In my Android app I have a SHA256 hash which I must further hash with the RIPEMD160 message digest algorithm.

I can output the correct sha256 and ripemd160 hash of any s

Answer 1

To get printable version of byte[] digest use this code:

StringBuffer hexString = new StringBuffer();
for (int i=0;i

and then call hexString.toString();
