[android-developers] Re: Drawable.createfrompath not working!

That function is expecting a file path:

public static Drawable createFromPath (String pathName)

Added in API level 1

Create a drawable from file path name.

It wants something like /mnt/sdcard/image.png

Sounds like you want to use assets.
