Answer 1

If you decode from base64 what you get should be technically an image file and cannot be used directly in the code.

Maybe what you are looking for is something like

Image i = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, offset, length);

Where "data" is a byte array you have after the decoding, offset should be set to 0 and length equal to data.length.

After that, you can use the image with your views.

Answer 2

finally i got solution for my problem by creating custom base64 class
