[android-developers] SD Card access for utility app

2010-07-27 Thread dtwood
I'm concepting an app that would *ideally* service as dashboard admin
of the users SD Card. Is it possible to create a utility app that
would be act as a file browser/manager for all the media on an SD
Card? does this app already exist?

many thanks for your thoughts.

p.s. in the event this is possible, i'm interested in sourcing a
freelance developer help that can make this happen

There are quite a few file manager apps already available, including Astro,
OI File Manager, and Linda, to name a few I know of off the top of my head.

[android-developers] sd card access

2010-03-01 Thread Dan
Is there a right associated with write/read access to the sd card that
needs to be set in the manifest.xml file?

I'm currently trying to write to the sd card using a standard
FileOutputStream here:

FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(/
sdcard/images/+imageName);
bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, out);

but it doesn't seem to be working.  It just says the location isn't
found, which can happen if there are no permissions to read/write to
the location.  Thanks for any help.

You need WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE to write to the SD card.
