problem with renameTo

hai everyone...

i need your help..
i'm using a simple method to rename a bunch of images in a folder order by its name (eg: A001.jpg,B001.jpg,C001.jpg). Im using the renameTo method, but it has a problem. It does not change the name of the images.

Here is my code:

for (int a = 0; a<i;a++){
if (!qAnswers[a].equals(answerOptionAlphaArray[a])){
if (qAnsS[a] != ""){
File currentAnswerFile1 = new File(filePath, ""+qAnswers[a] +""+qID+"."+currentAnswerFormat+"");
File currentAnswerFile3 = new File(filePath, ""+answerOptionAlphaArray[a]+""+qID+"."+currentAnswerFormat+"");
currentAnswerFile3.delete(); currentAnswerFile1.renameTo(currentAnswerFile3);
}

}
}
