Use This:

public String getBase64String(Bitmap photoBitmap) {
    String photo;
    if (photoBitmap != null) {

        ByteArrayOutputStream bao = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        photoBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, bao);
        // photoBitmap.recycle();
        photo = android.util.Base64.encodeToString(bao.toByteArray(),
                android.util.Base64.DEFAULT);
        try {
            bao.close();
            bao = null;
            photoBitmap = null;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    } else {
        photo = "";
    }
    return photo;
}
