sd-card

Is it possible to easily get the size of a folder on the SD card? I use a folder for caching of images, and would like to present the total size of all cached images. Is there a way to this other than iterating over each file? They all reside inside the same folder? Moss Just go through all files and sum the length of them: /** * Return the size of a directory in bytes */ private static long dirSize(File dir) { if (dir.exists()) { long result = 0; File[] fileList = dir.listFiles(); for(int i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) { // Recursive call if it's a directory if(fileList[i].isDirectory()) {

Does anyone know how to save a file from a webserver(local host) to the sdcard through wifi? I am doing xml parsing to my application and for that I have to download an xml file from localhost to the sdcard and then tag the parsing. I am stuck with downloading an xml file to the sd card. Please guide me on how to do this.. You can use this method to download a file from the internet to your SD card: public void DownloadFromUrl(String DownloadUrl, String fileName) { try { File root = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(); File dir = new File (root.getAbsolutePath() + "/xmls"); if

I decode bitmaps from the SD card using BitmapFactory.decodeFile . Sometimes the bitmaps are bigger than what the application needs or that the heap allows, so I use BitmapFactory.Options.inSampleSize to request a subsampled (smaller) bitmap. The problem is that the platform does not enforce the exact value of inSampleSize, and I sometimes end up with a bitmap either too small, or still too big for the available memory. From http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/BitmapFactory.Options.html#inSampleSize : Note: the decoder will try to fulfill this request, but the resulting

I'm wondering how to save an image to user's sdcard through a button click. Could some one show me how to do it. The Image is in .png format and it is stored in the drawable directory. I want to program a button to save that image to the user's sdcard. Imran Rana The process of saving a file (which is image in your case) is described here: save-file-to-sd-card Saving image to sdcard from drawble resource: Say you have an image namely ic_launcher in your drawable. Then get a bitmap object from this image like: Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource( getResources(), R.drawable.ic_launcher);

I want to open external storage directory path for saving file programatically.I tried but not getting sdcard path. How can i do this?is there any solution for this?? private File path = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) + ""); or private File path = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + ""); I tried getting path from above both methods but both are pointing internal memory. When we open storage memory if sdcard is peresent it will shows like below- device storage & sd memory card. I want to get sd memory path through coding.
