Android :: Package And Access Extra Files Inside Apk
Mar 3, 2010
I have some data files that I need to install together with my application on the emulator for easy testing my app on a device.
Where can I put files in a way that Eclipse will include them into my apk and how can I access those files after my application is installed on the device?

I'm trying to find a way to access private files created by other packages.According to the dev site (plz see the following), I can read/write files of other packages if some flags are set on the create of those files, but I don't know how. Can I just open those files with Context.openFileInput(or Context.openFileOutput)? Do I need a different way for those three cases? By three cases, I mean getSharedPreferences(String, int), openFileOutput(String, int), openOrCreateDatabase(String, int, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory).

I'm trying to bind a pre-populated database (.db file) to my application, so that I could use the data right away. I cannot, however, figure out a way to: 1) Store the .db file inside the application. 2) Access the database inside the application.

This file appears to be in a binary XML format. What is this format and how can it be parsed programmatically (as opposed to using the aapt dump tool in the SDK)?
This binary format is not discussed in the in the documentation here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-intro.html
I want to access this information from outside the Android environment, preferably from Java.

Is it possible to play a notification sound from a sound file inside the application package ?
Where should this file be stored in the apk (/res/raw or /assets) and what should be the URI to pass to the notification ?
notification.sound = Uri.parse(... ? ...);

I'm attempting to override an Android View class to tweak the functionality just slightly. But I need to modify a field that does not have a setter method. I've placed the subclass in a package called android.widget. Why can't I access any of the package-private member fields? I notice that the compiler says they "cannot be resolved," rather than not being accessible. Does this have something to do with how Android.jar is built?

In the ExampleActivity i am accessing the service by doing

I tried with serComponent( ) & serClassName( ) as well, but for both the cases onServiceConnected( ) is not getting called. I googled and used the hint for listening boot completed and user present intents and starting the service in the broadcast receiver.

I'm trying to save an object in a file but the file doesn't appear on the device and I don't get an exception either.
CODE:.....
If instead I use:
CODE:.....................
It works and I can see that the file has been created on the device.
But this isn't cool and it's not the way to do it because the directory structure may change in the future.

I've seen references to folks modifying the XML files contained inside the Android.jar.res.drawable folder and then copying them to their drawable folder for use in their project.
But I can't open these files, instead I get the following error.
Could not open the editor: org.eclipse.ui.PartInitException: Editor could not be initialized.
How do I open these files so I can use them?

I would like to access the public method of an Activity run by a TabActivity using: Code...
Basically, what I what is to let the parent Activity call a method in child Activity in order to do something. Is this possible?
I did try this:((TeamHuddleScreenMsgsView)getTabHost().getCurrentTabView().getContext()).refreshModel(); but I'm encountering a ClassCastException. It seems that the getContext() still gives the TabActivity. Any help on how to get the child Activity?

This doesn't seem like the right behavior. I've tried it with other views inside the FooView hierarchy and findViewById() always returns null.
For the life of me I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Basically I want to know how to get a list or array or any type of data about the files that have been stored in an package specific data section. By this I mean that after using something like:
FileOutputStream fOut = c.openFileOutput(fileName, 0); OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut);
How can I get a list of the files saved to the data location of my application where this file and other files or saved so that I can choose which file I wish to read or edit. I've searched and searched for this but have not found anything of use any help will be greatly appreciated.

I am working on an android app. Where i need to parse some plist files from assets folder. I do understand how to use assets in android but now problem is that file sizes are more than 1MB and so android gives error Data Exceeds UNCOMPRESS_DATA_MAX (2183588 vs 1048576). how to access such larger files from assets? Also I cant reduce a file into small buffers because i am just sending it to "DocumentBuilder.parse(in)" as a whole so can not use buffer. The error is on line: Document doc = db.parse(in).

I have read the Android UI trick 2 on Android developers, which tells people how to include a layout in another layout file multiple times, and give these included layouts different id. However, the sample here is overwriting the layout id, not the id of the views IN this layout. For example, if the workspace_screen.xml looks like this: And I include it three times in another layout file. Do I end up with three TextViews with id firstText, and another three with secondText? Isn't there an id collision? And how do I find the secondText TextView in the third included layout with findViewById? What should I input in the findViewById method?

installing an Android app without using the package installer.
Is there any way of installing an app through any other means than clicking on the .apk file in the folder?
Would it be possible to manually extract the apk archive and move the files to appropriate folders somewhere in /root/?

I've been a couple of days trying to solve this thing but I can'f figure it out.The problem is, simple activity, with simple layout, ScrollView -> LinearLayout -> and a lot of buttons inside the layout (within the scroll content). Everything works just fine but one tricky thing. When I click a button let's say at the top of the scroll content and inmediatelly I scroll down to the bottom of the content and I click other button there, nothing happens until I click a second time and all come to normal again.This can be reproduced anytime and it's code independent (i've tried more than 20 scenarios). I've not much experience in android yet but looks like the scroll listener stops the onclick listener or something like that.

i work on custom Application Manager and try to get the disk usage of installed package. So PackageManager.getpackageSizeInfo was removed from SDK on 0.9->1.0 update android.content.pm. PackageStats(String pkgName)(cacheSize, codeSize, dataSize) returns always "0" Size of phys. file (java.io.File) in "/data/app" seems wrong/not completely. Has anybody any solution to get the total disc space used by an installed package?

So I've been extremely frustrated by this for a long time now.I've posted before, but can't seem to find a good solution. My goal is to have something pretty much exactly like the installed application details page in the Android Market.I need a list of items displayed along with other content above the list, and would like the content above to scroll up along with the list (exactly like the application details does for the "My Review" and other descriptive info).Due to responses to my previous posts, I came to believe that it really wasn't possible to do this with a ListView.So rather than using a ListView, I refactored my code to use a simple LinearLayout and add individual View items to the list, thinking I could just set each View as clickable and add an OnClickListener to each View in the LinearLayout.That's not working at all though, and now I'm getting even more frustrated.If someone can help me get the OnClickListener working, then I think it'll work, but I do need a separator for the LinearLayout.How do I add a separator like the one used for ListView to my LinearLayout?
