AFAIK, there is no way to "inspect" the file system on a normal (i.e., non-rooted) production device. That means you cannot browse it with DDMS. At least for debug-compiled apps, I used to have success using adb pull to directly reference a file and download it off the device, though I haven't tried that since Android 1.5 was released. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Looking for Android opportunties? http://wiki.andmob.org/hado --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
