Read correct OCR data(having less accuracy) using Tesseract

Hi I have to develope an application to read OCR data .

After Googling I found that i can achieve it using Tesseract .

I got Tesseract source code from https://github.com/rmtheis/tess-two

I got its libraries by donloading NDK from http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r9-windows-x86.zip

Now extracted it suppose I have extract it into E:\Software\android-ndk-r9 so I will set this path on Environment Variable

Right Click on MyComputer->Property->Advance-System-Settings->Advance->Environment Variable-> find PATH on second below Box and set like path like below picture

enter image description here

Now open cmd and go to on D:\Android Workspace\tess-two like below

enter image description here

Now downloaded other source code also from https://github.com/rmtheis/tess-two , and extract and import it and give it name OCRTest, like in my PC which is in D:\Android Workspace\OCRTest

enter image description here

So I have compile both two projects successfully by taking help from best OCR (Optical character recognition) example in android

But my problem is when I click on capture button then it is producing wrong text .

If anyone had done this correctly then please help me...

Thanks a lot in advance....
