update data after installation without root access
Monkey Targets Forums/Android/update data after installation without root access
| ||
| hi ! - My project is a slideshow with images and some texts. Images and texts are inside MyAppli.data folder. The program read the texts from ini files. - I've connected a MK808 mini pc to my hdmi Tv. I've a cordless keyboard connected to the key via usb. I download my monkey finished apk file from my site. Next i install it on android 4. my problem : i've not 'root access' to the mk808 dongle, so i can't access to the app folder to edit my ini file. I've you an idea how i can update the ini file, put images inside the app folder ? (without re-install my appli). Thanks ! |

| that's not gonna happen. Instead, you should probably store your ini file in monkey's /internal/ folder, or use SaveState/LoadState. There are security permissions, as far as I know, which make it difficult if not impossible to do what you're asking... |

| i've now the root access. But... Where are my monkey data files ? |

| Thanks Mike. i'm newbie with android system In fact i can't find my appli folder when i install directly the apk file on my Mk808 android key. What's the default monkey name ? i need to find my jpg and text files ! Now i know that i've a root access. But i'm searching again ! |

| All my problems are fixed now. After some android tutorials !. MyFolder.data is packed inside the apk file. That's why i can see the files... with root access i put my external files inside my own folder here : /storage/emulated/0/data/MyFolder next just use monkey:://external/data/MyFolder |

| Glad you found it. I think it is mandatory to study the native development documentation when you go mobile. Monkey and its docs can get you only so far. It can't cover everything. |
