You wouldn't hold an image as a string like that- with unicode and different text encodings you're asking for problems. If you absolutely HAVE to do it (and it should be avoided if at all possible), it should be encoded as Byte64, not used as raw bytes. You would then decode that into a byte array, the byte array into a bitmap, and the bitmap into a bitmap drawable for the image view.
