Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() gives a different path - Android

Question

I try to write something into my phone memory.

At first, I hard-coded the path as:

myFile = new File(\"/sdcard/\" + txtName.getText() + \".txt\");
         


        

Answer 1

Remove the .getAbsolutePath() and it will be fine. Environment.getExternalStoreDirectory() will give you the path to wherever the manufacture has set their external storage.
