How to generate an MD5 checksum for a file in Android?

This code is from the CMupdater, from the CyanogenMod 10.2 android ROM.
It tests the downloaded ROMs into the updater App.

code: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMUpdater/blob/cm-10.2/src/com/cyanogenmod/updater/utils/MD5.java

It works like a charm:
