You can't write to folders in your project. You app, however, has a

That's up to you, either way works. Though if the file is huge, the SD is a
better option.

This is pretty standard Java IO stuff. Look at the Android documentation for
how to write to your app's data space and to the SD card, and Google around
for Java IO. That should be all you need.
