The closest thing to documentation I can find having to do with file storage is this post (see below if you can't access it), but it leaves me with several questions. I would really, really, really like a knowledgeable explanation of what paths map to what storage here, seeing as how we're supposed to hard-code them, and how precisely we're expected to access them. An actual code sample would be superlative. My best guess from messing around with this is that: /sdcard-> maps to the internal eMMC slot, and access is restricted. Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(); ... still returns this.

I wrote a simple alarm-clock style application that I run on my (jailbroken) Nook Simple Touch (aka NST), under Android 2.1. When the scheduled alarm time arrives, my application needs to wake up the NST and display a page of HTML content. I use AlarmManager to get a callback at the right time, and it seems to work as expected -- almost. The problem occurs when enough idle time has passed that the NST has activated its lock-screen mode (i.e. it is auto-displaying a caricature of a famous author). I can't find a programmatic way to dismiss the lock-screen so that my HTML content will be visible
