    InputStream inputStream = url.openStream();
    ByteArrayOutputStream output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

    int n = 0;
    while (-1 != (n = inputStream.read(buffer))) {
      output.write(buffer, 0, n);
    }
    inputStream.close();

    byte[] data = output.toByteArray();

    OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("data.png");
    out.write(data);
