I am planning to show some image in my app. Also, this images must be in assets folder. First I will upload images into assets folder from url, and when app runs, must show this images from assets folder. Is there any possible way to do this ?
The assets folder is read-only the images you get should be saved to a spot on the device then referenced by its path
there is a detailed explanation here for how to save image to internal directory and load them

I am working on a project where I am having an ExpandableListView populated with Items and SubItems. When I click on SubItems, I have to populate relative images into the gridView. All the images are saved in Assets folder and I have to put there path in an external SqliteDatabase which I have created using sqlitedabase browser.
So my question is, How to save Path of images in database from Assets folder.
BitmapFactory.decodeFile("file:///android_asset/image/test.jpg")
Though storing Images in the Assets is not the best way to go. You will not be able to take advantage of the Android resource management system. So unless you have a compelling reason to do this, I'd suggest that you take a look at using the res folder and the resources system.
BitmapFactory has a method to decode a file via the decodeFile method.
Android lets you access a file in the assets folder via the file:///android_asset/{path} path.
if your file in assest>image folder and your image name is test.jpg
then file:///android_asset/ is original path plus you need to mention remaining structure like file:///android_asset/image/test.png
I want to get images name from database and images are stored in the resource folder
Could you show me how to do it.
I tried few methods but none works.
You cant do it, resource folder is read only folder, and the R.java also generated at compiled time, not in runtime. You can save the image in sd card or cache memory .
Is is it possible to save downloaded images from my site into the drawable folder? I've preloaded the images, but how can I save them for later use?
Thanks!
You can't save anything into the drawable folder. What is packaged at compile time is all it'll have.
Instead, you can save the images to the external storage, or into a database or into internal storage.
No, because there's no "drawable" folder at all. All your drawables remain in APK file after installation and your APK file is read only hence no modification of any sort is possible. Use SD card or application storage for storing files.
I had an image which has been downloaded from the server.Now,I want this image to be as folder to store other downloaded files into it dynamically..
Is it possible to store the downloaded files into image?
can we use an image as folder ?
You can not store one image into other image, means your image is not going to behave as a folder. Instead, you can make external folder in /mnt/sdcard/path_to_your_image_folder and this folder can behave as a container for your downloaded images.
