like a media file say video by any means like bluetooth or wifi. The point is i dont want someone to copy my video when phone is in their hands when i am not around?
If you want to do this via programmatically, store your media files in a separate file and prefix your folder with a "." (dot). then folder will be invisible.
if you need more information.. i would like to help.. first try it yourself and ask for source code help
If you want some android application.. check following application from android app store
1) Hide Something - Photo, Video
2) File Hide Expert
3) Hide Images Videos and Files

I have implemented a custom keyboard in android and want to send music files from that keyboard. I want to implement functionality to copy and paste music files from sdCard to EditText with thumbnails like TextEFX app in IOS. Here is the link for demo for TextEFX app https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plUNf3DZgaM
I do not want to share only copy and past like TextEFX app. Can anyone tell me how to implement exactly the same as TextEFX app?
Thanks in Advance
I'm working on an android app which can download the video from server and store it in SD card. and plays it while the app is in offline mode. but i want the add one more functionality to my app. now the videos downloaded by app can be played by any video player in the device. But i want to restrict that functionality.so the videos downloaded by my app can only playable by my app(like youtube app).
I'm totally new to this functionality .. any ideas and approaches to achieve this ?
Thanks in advance ..
As mentioned by #Vivek Kumar Srivastava:
If you are working on Api Level-8 then I suggest to use getExternalFilesDir (String type)
instead of Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() because there are two benefit using this
-all images and data will be automatically deleted when your application uninstall by user
-images do not visible in the media application (in Gallery).
I have been thinking about developing my own custom Viber sticker but I can't get to any good source to give me some information about this.
Does anyone know how to do this? Or is it possible at all? If yes, please let me know what do I need to do so.
Thanks.
When you send/recieve a sticker, it doesnt really send it, just opens the image from the local store from your phone.
What I did on my Android is download a stickers set that I dont like.
Connect the phone to the computer and open the vyber folder, and search for the folder containing the set I downloaded.
Then I uploaded my custom stickers to this folder using the same names to overwrite the files.
Since vyber doesnt send the stickers, when you send the custom sticker people dont see your stikers, they see the original files on their phones. So I repeat the process on the phones of my boyfriend and my sister.
I can only use the stickers with them, but it is better than nothing.
Also you can just have a folder in your gallery and send them as image files is not the same, but it works.
I've been following this blog to help me make a simple music player function with an Android app (http://simonmacdonald.blogspot.com/2011/05/using-media-class-in-phonegap.html).
All works well - but I would like some way to extract a list of all music media stored on the phone so the user can click a file and play it. Does anyone know if this is possible via phone gap? I'd need to access track name/artist etc and a link to the track.
Cheers
Paul
Prognosis is not good.... PhoneGap does not have an API for accessing the media library. So, you would have to fall back to the File API to locate music files, and then... you would have to read the binary data in the actual files to extract out the track/artist metadata. Ouch. Seems pretty impractical.
[EDIT]
By the way, PhoneGap is not the only game in town. Appcelerator seems to solve the same problem, and apparently has a richer API, which includes
access to media metadata
in my application, I want to be able to select an audio file which is on the device to be used. The standard audio player in Android 2.3 "Music" offers everything I need to fullfill the requirements. Is it possible to send an Intent to open the Music app, select a song and give back the audio file id as result to my application?
thanks in advance!

Have you tried using the INTENT_ACTION_MEDIA_SEARCH? It seems to do what you are looking for..
