>From an Android SDK standpoint, getExternalStorageDirectory() is the right answer. If a device manufacturer elects to do something else, that is their problem. Furthermore, that device does not support third-party apps, let alone have the Android Market on it. I recommend that you get a real device, one that ships with a legitimate Android Market on it, for your app testing purposes. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training...At Your Office: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
