android: nullpointer when saving images

I'm trying to take an image, optimize it as a 65% jpeg and save it to the phones storage. The code below is working fine for me on my nexus one, but is returning a null pointer exception on the last line.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

// image passed in from camera
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(selectedImagePath, opts);

// create output
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = null;

// create filename & directory
String nameFile = "ms" + String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis())+ ".jpg";
String directory = "/DCIM/MySeats/";

// try creating the directories if they don't already exist         
File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),directory);
file.mkdirs();

// prep output
fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()+ directory + nameFile);
optimizedImagePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()+ directory + nameFile;

// write file through a buffered stream
BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(fileOutputStream);

// This line causes a null pointer exception on some phones?
开发者_运维百科// What am I missing?
bm.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG, 65, bos);

Null pointer exception in the last line is due to the two variable that is used in the last line is null

check for bm != null check for bos!= null

I am going to assume you are launching the native camera application and this code is all probably from the onActivityResult() method. Your problem could be that a couple of phones with the carrier specific builds disregard the MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT parameter and just return the image in the returned Intent. This would mean the image at the path you expect is null and you have to extract the image from the intent using getData() sometimes.
