package com.example.vishal.demo;

import android.Manifest;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.os.Environment;
import android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
        Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.img);
        File path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
        File dir = new File(path + "AndroidImageFolder/");
        dir.mkdir();
        File imageFileInSD = new File(dir + "OCRImage.png");
        FileOutputStream out = null;
        try {
            out = new FileOutputStream(imageFileInSD + "");
            bm.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out);
            out.flush();
            out.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

Make sure you had added the correct permissions to your manifest file or if using v6.0 methods that you are checking or manifest permissions upon saving

Try this code, 

File path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
File dir = new File(path + "/AndroidImageFolder/");
dir.mkdir();

Added permission in manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Try this code

private void SaveImage(Bitmap finalBitmap) {

String root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
File myDir = new File(root + "/saved_images");    
myDir.mkdirs();
Random generator = new Random();
int n = 10000;
n = generator.nextInt(n);
String fname = "Image-"+ n +".jpg";
File file = new File (myDir, fname);
if (file.exists ())
  file.delete (); 
try {
    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
    finalBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, out);
    out.flush();
    out.close();

} catch (Exception e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
}

}
