sd-card

I have been searching on how to save file from Drawable into sd card OR phone's internal storage. All examples such as this one showed only for PNG type, I want to get GIF file from my drawable and save it into phone sd, and later remove it from sd after usage. Anybody please help with the code? I appreciate it! As far as i know there isn't such a native function on Android (maybe related to patent issues). You may try this library for your purpose. Usually its meant to create animated GIF but a file with just one picture (frame) should also work. So a complete example could be like this

I have a program that uses content from sd-card. I want to listen to different states like sd-card mounted or sd-card removed unexpectedly. How can I do so. An example would be of a great help. Thanks to all PravinCG You need to listen for ACTION_MEDIA_REMOVED and ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED . Create a receiver and listen for this action. EDIT: In your manifest file add this <receiver android:name=".MyReceiver" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_REMOVED" /> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_MOUNTED" /> <data android:scheme="file" /> </intent-filter> <

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

I want to achieve the following but so far, no luck Open a file in the SD Card when the android application first started. Stream the logcat output to the file. When the application exits, stop the logcat streaming. In my ApplicationClass extends Application onCreate() method, I do this wwLogManager.openLogFile(); and here's the code in the openLogFile() private static final String LOGCAT_COMMAND = "logcat -v time -f "; String timestamp = Long.toString(System.currentTimeMillis()); String logFileName = BuildConstants.LOG_LOCATION + "_" + timestamp + ".log"; mLogFile = new File(Environment

I'm trying to load a png image as a drawable from my device sd card. I use the following function but it doesn't work: public Drawable getDrawable() { return new BitmapDrawable(imagePath); } The image path is: mnt/sdcard/MyFolder/image.png The app crashes when I try calling that method, how should I load my png image located in my sdcard and cast it into a Drawable object? There is actually a BitmapDrawable constructor straight from file path. The method you are using is depricated. Try: Drawable myDrawable = new BitmapDrawable(getResources(), pathName); If this doesnt work, Try getting a

How can I programmatically delete data or format the entire SD Card? code to wipe SDCARD public void wipingSdcard() { File deleteMatchingFile = new File(Environment .getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()); try { File[] filenames = deleteMatchingFile.listFiles(); if (filenames != null && filenames.length > 0) { for (File tempFile : filenames) { if (tempFile.isDirectory()) { wipeDirectory(tempFile.toString()); tempFile.delete(); } else { tempFile.delete(); } } } else { deleteMatchingFile.delete(); } } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } private void wipeDirectory(String name) {
