MD5 Encryption in Android

Lets start the tutorial for md5 encryption in android.

MD5 is the best practice to handle the secured data like password etc.
In android we can able to achieve this using few simple code.

Create new android project and copy and paste the below java code.

import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class DataEncryptionActivity extends Activity {
    String strNormalValue, strEncrytedValue;
    EditText edtValue;
    Button btnEncrypt;
    TextView tvEncrypt;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        edtValue = (EditText) this.findViewById(R.id.edt_to_encrypt);
        tvEncrypt = (TextView) this.findViewById(R.id.txt_encrypt);
        btnEncrypt = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.btn_encrypt);
        btnEncrypt.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                strNormalValue = edtValue.getText().toString().trim();
                strEncrytedValue = getMD5(strNormalValue);
                tvEncrypt.setText(strEncrytedValue);
            }
        });

    }

    public String getMD5(String src) {
        try {
            // Create MD5 Hash
            MessageDigest digest = java.security.MessageDigest
                    .getInstance("MD5");
            digest.update(src.getBytes());
            byte messageDigest[] = digest.digest();

            // Create Hex String
            StringBuffer hexString = new StringBuffer();
            for (int i = 0; i < messageDigest.length; i++) {
                String h = Integer.toHexString(0xFF & messageDigest[i]);
                while (h.length() < 2)
                    h = "0" + h;
                hexString.append(h);
            }
            return hexString.toString();

        } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return "";
    }
}


Copy and paste it in main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edt_to_encrypt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:ems="10" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btn_encrypt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Convert to MD5" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txt_encrypt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:singleLine="false" />

</LinearLayout>
