Downloading To And Accessing / Files Directory?

Apr 6, 2012

i am updating an app i developed so that it downloads xml files it needs for content management. the files download successfully to the emulator but are not placed in the /files directory that openFileInput() is attempting to read from. i am admittedly unsure as to the proper overall solution here - app originally used packaged XML and was fed to an XMLPullParser - but i cant even get as far as attempting to parse new XML at present because my app cant find the new file sitting in /data/data/[myApp]/ and not /data/data/ [myApp]/files and i cant figure out how to get it in there. the download doesnt work at all if i add that folder to path.e.

Downloading to and accessing / files directory?


HT-PAD1051 - Accessing Internal SD Root Directory?

Nov 4, 2011

I have an HT-PAD1051 - seems to be pretty close to the HeroTab M10.

I have rooted the device but can not get access to the root directory in the internal sd card. (There is no external sd card slot on this particular device). Part of teh internal sd card is mapped to a /mnt/ directory and folders in that directory are accessible. But no access to the root directory. So, when I try to flash Clockwork Mod recovery using ROM Manager it fails due to not being able to access the directory.

Android :: Create Files Hierarchy '/data/data/pkg/files' Directory

Dec 11, 2009

I try to create 'foo/bar.txt' in Android's /data/data/pkg/files directory.

It seems to be a contradiction in docs:

To write to a file, call Context.openFileOutput() with the name and path.

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#files

The name of the file to open; can not contain path separators.

[url]

And when I call

this.openFileOutput("foo/bar.txt", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

exception is thrown:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File foo/bar.txt contains a path separator

So how do I create file in subfolder?

General :: How To Write Files Into The Directory

Jun 21, 2012

I'd like to know if there's a way to write files into the main directory just before the system shutdown, something like this:

End all processes (-> unmount disks?) -> mount /sdcard rw and / rw -> copy files from /sdcard to / -> unmount disks -> shutdown/reboot

Same with boot image (flash, in this case, and not copy / mod files)... is it possible? Or do I require to boot into recovery for these operations? I know I can remount as rw my system directory via ADB

Also, is it possible to do the same thing with the build.prop file? This, or during startup (before mounting partitions with standard permissions).

Of course, this having root (but not a special kernel to enable this kind of "before mounting" thing).

Folder Directory - How To Organize Files

Jul 11, 2012

I've thought of starting to develop an application and one of its features is that it downloads some content (images, files, etc) and organize them into folders in accordance with site they were downloaded.

Well, the question is... How do Android organize your files? In Windows, for example, I could create some folders, one for each site, or one for each time period. But in Android, how does it work? Is there a system of folders like Windows? Or is there a totally different way to organize files?

Android :: Accessing Raw Resource Files With Filename As String

Mar 7, 2009

Is there a way to access a raw resource file by having its filename in a String? According Google's documentation, I need to use "Resources.openRawResource (R.raw.myDataFile)". This requires that I have the file name at compile time, but what if I have 20 or so files and want to do something to a specific file by passing its file name at runtime?

General :: Move Files From One Directory To Another After Rooting

Jan 5, 2014

I have a question about moving files after rooting, installed supersu already and give root browser permissions in supersu.

I have a problem with moving a apk file from downloads/direct to system/priv-app. It says after i'm trying to moved it "failed operations" and it seems like it's the only directory i can't move files to.

I have read that the files or directory should have some special permissions, but i'am sure that the criteria are met.

Also when i go to supersu to see logfiles on the "action" it says that i need supersu pro to move that files. But will it works or what should i do to get this to work?

Motorola Droid :: Places Directory - Where Do Downloaded Files Go

Nov 8, 2009

I went to Google Labs and looked around and found Places Directory. The page shows a barcode and said I could scan that and download the app so that's what I did. My browser opened up and showed that the file was downloaded.

So I went back to the home screen but couldn't find Places Directory. I decided to manually download and install it from the market and that worked fine.

My question is, do I now have a downloaded copy of this app that is just sitting somewhere taking up space? I can't figure out where files downloaded by the browser go to, please help.

Android :: Limit For The Number Of Files In Directory On An SD Card?

Apr 16, 2010

I have a project written for Android devices. It generates a large number of files, each day. These are all text files and images. The app uses a database to reference these files.

The app is supposed to clear up these files after a little use (perhaps after a few days), but this process may or may not be working. This is not the subject of this question.

Due to a historic accident, the organization of the files are somewhat naive: everything is in the same directory; a .hidden directory which contains a zero byte .nomedia file to prevent the MediaScanner indexing it.

Today, I am seeing an error reported:

CODE:................

Regarding the sdcard, I see it has plenty of storage left, but counting

$ cd /Volumes/NO_NAME/.hidden
$ ls | wc -w
9058

Deleting a number of files seems to have allowed the file creation for today to proceed.

Regrettably, I did not try touching a new file to try and reproduce the error on a commandline; I also deleted several hundred files rather than a handful.

However, my question is: Are there hard limits on filesize or number of files in a directory?
am I even on the right track here?

Nota Bene: The SD card is as-is - i.e. I haven't formatted it, so I would guess it would be a FAT-* format.

The FAT-32 format has hard limits of filesize of 2GB (well above the filesizes I am dealing with) and a limit of number of files in the root directory. I am definitely not writing files in the root directory.

Android :: Eclipse To Compile Files - Test - Src Instead Of - Src - Directory When Building

Nov 18, 2010

Can an android project in Eclipse be configured so that the built-in builders read from an alternative source directory? ie. "test/src" instead of "src"? and possibly even "test/res" instead of "res"? (It appears that setting dirs in the property files will only affect ant and not the built-in builders)

General :: Downloading Files From Hosting Sites

Jul 3, 2012

I have a problem with downloading files from hosting sites such as rapidgator, hellshare etc. On default browser and on Google Chrome files aren't downloading at all or there is downloaded a file which has for example 26kb or so, while I am trying to download files about 400-700mb. On Opera Mobile the files are downloading, but if I will minimize the browser and start any other app, the downloading process is stopped. I am really surprised with that because a few months ago I also had HTC Desire Z and I could've download any file with the stock browser and. while downloading, check any app I wanted.

I have Asus Transformer Pad 300 with Android ICS (newest update). When I download files about 10mb everything is ok, so I assume it's the size problem or maybe file extension, but I tried the app called All files download (or something like that) which has been recommended in a similar post (but that user had SGS3) and it didn't worked either.
