Hi, I use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() already. The first application is writing/reading (without problem) on the SDCard via:
File f = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() and File f2 = new File(f,"file.xml"); The second application is also using Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() but adb logcat says when getting to open "file.xml": "File Not Found". And I use the exact same thing that the other application. I am sure the sdcard is mounted (emulator -sdcard sdcard) as I can use it for first app, and thus sdcard scan is also completed. So I tried to display some information and here is the problem I guess: f.isReadable() = FALSE f.isWritable() = FALSE which is tested in the second app. I do not get why?
