View 1 RepliesI have this problem. Two apps: app_a and service_s. Service_S creates file in /tmp. After create this file, service_s uses FileUtils.setPermission to change file mode to 666. Then app_a tries to delete this file. But I always failed when deleting. It seems the files are private. One application cannot delete files which another application creates. Is there any way to delete this file?

If I created a second application with the same package name (com.rams) and I access the database file created with my first application, the second application is able to access the database contents.
How can I secure the database file created with my first application?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI plan to bundle an xml data file that has all the metadata required by the application. When my app loads for the first time, the xml data file is read and local database is created and populated. This xml file is a crucial part of my app and it holds at least 100k entries. I don't want this data to be compromised.
Is there a way to encrypt this data file so that the file is unreadable in case someone opens the .apk file and extracts the data file.
I have a problem with creating a trace file containing logs on my app. I use Debug.startMethodTracing("tracing"); and in my onDestroy() method i stop the methodTracing. Everything is going fine, like my file is created on my phone BUT it is empty, and i don't get why because it worked once and since i can't get it working. Here is the log ive got, and it says that it is writting on the file, so this is acting a bit weird. Code...

My app creates a temp file with a simple call to:
FileOutputStream fos = openFileOutput("MY_TEMP.TXT",Mode);
It works fine because I can write to it and read it normally.
The problem is that when I exit from the app I want to delete this file. I used:
File f = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"),"MY_TEMP.TXT");
f.delete()
But it always returns false and the file is not deleted.
I have tried
File f = new File("MY_TEMP.TXT");
f.delete();
And it does not work either.
I am trying to follow the instructions on this page to create a trace file. I can see the file in File Explorer in DDMS and can pull it onto my PC but it is zero bytes long.

I am trying to apply an animation to a view in my Android app after my activity is created. To do this, I need to determine the current size of the view, and then set up an animation to scale from the current size to the new size. This part must be done at runtime, since the view scales to different sizes depending on input from the user. My layout is defined in XML. This seems like an easy task, and there are lots of SO questions regarding this though none which solved my problem, obviously. So perhaps I am missing something obvious. I get a handle to my view by: ImageView myView = (ImageView)getWindow().findViewById(R.id.MyViewID);
This works fine, but when calling getWidth(), getHeight(), getMeasuredWidth(), getLayoutParams().width, etc., they all return 0. I have also tried manually calling measure() on the view followed by a call to getMeasuredWidth(), but that has no effect. I have tried calling these methods and inspecting the object in the debugger in my activity's onCreate() and in onPostCreate(). How can I figure out the exact dimensions of this view at runtime?
I'm making an Android Java app game (although this question applies to all languages really) and hope to release the first version soon. I'm nervous about how I save data in my game. My problem is that, if in a later update, I decide to store more data or store the same data in a different way, I need to be careful I don't lose or corrupt data for users that upgrade (i.e. I want users to be able to use data created by an old version in the new version, like their high scores from before).For example, say I want to save high scores in version 1.

Seemed pretty straightforward, but isn't working because I have no update.zip created by ROM Manager. When I did the "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" step no update.zip file was created in the internal SD root. Buried in the clockwork mod folder is recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-captivate.zip, do I move this and rename it?
Just made an update.zip using Titanium Backup 3.4.1. Can anybody help me with how to sign it as it is unsigned. I am sure an unsigned update.zip can't be installed from the recovery menu.

-sdcard /usr/android/sdcard/mysdcard.iso -audio oss [i]

I have some reference data in a text file (~5MB) that I want to use with might android application.The file is of the format:
1|a|This is line 1a
1|b|This is line 1b
2|a|This is line 2a
2|b|This is line 2b
2|c|This is line 2c
What I want to know is the most efficient way (less memory, fast, size etc.) to use this file within my application.
a.) Should I save the file as a raw resource and open and read the whole file whenever I need a certain line.
b.) Should I convert the file to XML and use XPath to query the file when ever I need to look up a value
<!--sample XML -->
<data>
<line number="1">
<entry name="a">This is line 1 a</entry>
</line>
</data>
c.) Should I just copy & paste the whole file as a static string array in the application and use that.
[EDIT] I will also need to search this file and jump to arbitrary keywords e.g. "line 1a".
Is it possible to copy a file located on the sdcard to a package's internal filesytem located at /data/data/packagename/files/ folder?
