[android-developers] Re: File IO works on Emulator but not my snowball board

Make sure you have WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission and you are writing in the sd card directory (i.e. /mnt/sdcard/myfile.txt)

Hi,

I am unable to get file IO working on my snowball board, with the log reporting

I have tried writing to internal and external space using both Java and Native C++ code but to no avail.

I get the message : File open failed : EACCES (permission denied).

When I run on the emulator the FileIO works okay.

Do I have to establish root permission within my Android applications perform FileIO on my device?

Could this be related to the version of Android running on my Snowball board, compared with the emulator?

Thanks in advance.
