How can I pass a Bitmap object from one activity to another

Question

In my activity, I create a Bitmap object and then I need to launch another Activity, How can I pass this Bitmap object from the sub-ac

Answer 1

All of the above solutions doesn't work for me, Sending bitmap as parceableByteArray also generates error android.os.TransactionTooLargeException: data parcel size.

Solution

1. Saved the bitmap in internal storage as:

public String saveBitmap(Bitmap bitmap) {
        String fileName = "ImageName";//no .png or .jpg needed
        try {
            ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
            FileOutputStream fo = openFileOutput(fileName, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
            fo.write(bytes.toByteArray());
            // remember close file output
            fo.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            fileName = null;
        }
        return fileName;
    }

2. and send in putExtra(String) as

Intent intent = new Intent(ActivitySketcher.this,ActivityEditor.class);
intent.putExtra("KEY", saveBitmap(bmp));
startActivity(intent);

3. and Receive it in other activity as:

if(getIntent() != null){
  try {
           src = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(openFileInput("myImage"));
       } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
      }

 }
