With your filepath code, I'm not sure if it's even possible. I think res/raw are within the apk, whereas it looks like you are trying to access something off the file system. Plus, when you have "/" as the first part of your path, it's going to look in the root of the file system. If you were saving your images using something like Context.openFileOutput, then your file will be in /data/data/ my.apps.namespace/files/myfilename.myextension. I recall some discussion saying you shouldn't rely on files being stored there though. It might change in the future.
