Why? In case they purchase it from another device? Or to prevent config file editing? > You can store anything on the storage card and it will persist.

I wanted some form of private storage, since that seemed sensible for storing purchase data. But if we're not worried about someone plugging their phone into their computer and simply opening and editing the relevant file with RELOADSpy (or possibly uploading it), then well obvious we're not worried about anything. I think the way of storing private persistent data I was thinking of is "Shared Preferences" https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#pref however it doesn't explicitly say it's not deleted on uninstall. > Note that many devices don't distinguish in the UI the storage card and the > /data/data partition.

What do you mean by UI? _______________________________________________ Ohrrpgce mailing list [email protected] http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org
