android-sdcard

I have a strange problem I've come across. My app can write a simple textfile to the SD Card and sometimes it works for some people but not for others and I have no idea why. For some people, it force closes if they put some characters like ... in the File and such. I cannot seem to reproduce it as I've had no troubles but this is the code which handles the File writing. Can anyone think of something that may lead to problems or a better to way to do it? public void generateNoteOnSD(String sFileName, String sBody) { try { File root = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "Notes")

To my knowledge, on Android, there is: Internal memory for apps and cache Internal SD Card on some phones (not removable) External SD Card for music and photos (removable) How do I get the total and available for each with a check that they exist (some phones do not have an internal SD Card) Thanks Here is how you get internal storage sizes: StatFs statFs = new StatFs(Environment.getRootDirectory().getAbsolutePath()); long blockSize = statFs.getBlockSize(); long totalSize = statFs.getBlockCount()*blockSize; long availableSize = statFs.getAvailableBlocks()*blockSize; long freeSize = statFs

I need to save the pictures taken with my app in an specific folder. I've read many solutions to this problem but I couldn't make any of them work so I ask for help.

I am having very Strange problem with my Samsung Nexus with Android 4.0.2. I wrote a simple program which basically create file each time user presses a button. My program is working great on other devices where as on Galaxy Nexus Windows/Mac can not see those files on SD card, but when i do adb shell i see all files on SD Card. I retest this on another Nexus which has Android 4.0.4 but still same result. What could be the reason? You probably need to index your files via MediaScannerConnection . Quoting myself from a blog post from last year : ...the MTP contents are not based on the literal

In my splash screen, I want to check if the phone has a SDCard. The Boolean statement is beneath: Boolean isSDPresent = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState() .equals(android.os.Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED ); So, if I have the SDCard in the slot on my phone, this boolean will return true, so far so good. When I go to the "Unmount SDCard" from the settings menu, and removes the SDCard, then kill the app and launching it again, the boolean will also be true.. And if I launches the Astro File Manager after unmounting and removing the sdcard, I can still access the /mnt/sdcard path, why?
