Question

I am converting my image files as bytes and insert into database using content value as given below.I need to store the image as bytes into the blog database field

  String fileName="/sdcard/"+pkDelivery+".png";  
         Bitmap bMap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(fileName);
         imgSignature.setImageBitmap(bMap);




         ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();      
         bMap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, stream);      
         byte[] byteArray = stream.toByteArray();  
         String aa =byteArray.toString();
         ContentValues initialDelay15 = new ContentValues();
         dbAdapter = new DatabaseAdapter(this); 
         dbAdapter.open();
         initialDelay15.put("Signature",
                 byteArray);
         dbAdapter.UpdateRecord("tblDelivery", initialDelay15, "PKDelivery"
                 + "=" + pkDelivery, null); 

The byte array shows value as given below when tried to covert the image to bytes as given below
