Answer 1

You can use this

public int[] getIntIds(Integer[] images){
    int[] temp = new int[images.length];
    String name;
    for(int i=0; i<= images.length; i++){
        name = getResources().getResourceEntryName(images[i]);
        temp[i] = getResources().getIdentifier(name , "drawable", getPackageName());
    }
    return temp;
}
