I worked on Android and tried to reproduce your used case in Android CV ... What I did is the following ...
Mat tempMat=new Mat();
Utils.bitmapToMat(bm, tempMat);
Mat tempMat1 = new Mat(tempMat.rows()/2, tempMat.cols()/2, tempMat.type());
Imgproc.resize(tempMat, tempMat1, new Size(), 0.5, 0.5, Imgproc.INTER_LINEAR);
Utils.matToBitmap(tempMat, bm);
bm = Bitmap.createBitmap(tempMat1.width(), tempMat1.height(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Utils.matToBitmap(tempMat1, bm);
Then I have code to save both bitmaps to files ... I checked the saved files after downloading them from my Android device to the Ubuntu desktop ...
