Answer to this found on StackOverflow:

Manually copying the file into the app's own data/data/package_name/ 
directory on a rooted device will not work if SELinux is "enforcing" - The 
app must own the file by "creating" it. Giving it r permissions across the 
board isn't enough.

No idea how this is for places requiring READ_EXTERNAL.yet.

My solution involved creating a temporary http download service to pass the 
file along.
