Apps BitmapFactory returns null

[louieansonng]

I'm having problems recreating a bitmap image from a byte array saved in sqllite. any method I use with BitmapFactory.decode always returns null. Log shows that skia failed to decode image or something like that.

public Bitmap convertToImage(byte[] bytes) {

    ByteArrayInputStream imageStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);
    return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream);
}
