I got a working Solution. BUT i am halfway to accomplishing what i want. The solution below works for One line of string.

Writing a Compressed byte array to Basic Card file:

OutputStream regionFilestream = regionFile.sysOpenAsOutputStream();
PrintStream regionFileout2 = new PrintStream(regionFilestream);

byte [] b = compressBytes(strTxt);

regionFileout2.write(b);
regionFileout2.flush();
regionFileout2.close();

Reading a Compressed byte array from Basic Card file and uncompressing it:

InputStream regionFilestream = regionFile.sysOpenAsInputStream();

BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(regionFilestream);

byte[] byBuf = new byte[1024];
int byteRead = bis.read(byBuf,0,1024);
String UncompressedString = extractBytes(byBuf);

NOW, i want to write multiple lines of byte arrays to a basic Card file how do i do it????
