Android: Save image to sd card without view in gallery

Question

I use this code for save image to sd card :

URL url = new URL(downloadPath);
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setRequestMethod("GET");
connection.connect();
int fileSize = connection.getContentLength();

int len = 0;
int downloadedSize = 0;

FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(filepath);
InputStream inputStream = connection.getInputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[G.DOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE];
while ((len = inputStream.read(buffer)) > 0) {
     outputStream.write(buffer, 0, len);
     downloadedSize += len;
     downloadPercent = (float) (100.0 * (float) downloadedSize / fileSize);
}

outputStream.close();

But after save , in gallery is shown

I want save to sd card but not shown in gallery

I think your solution lies in this ans [link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10697276/android-nomedia-not-working-for-images) — Sush, May 18 '16 at 09:12
@AnkeshkumarJaisansaria this way : Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath(); — Mohammad, May 18 '16 at 09:14
@sush use this ? : sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED, Uri.parse("file://" + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()))); — Mohammad, May 18 '16 at 09:16
@Mohammad Does your question says that running this code launches Gallery application? — Ankesh kumar Jaisansaria, May 18 '16 at 09:34
