Extract a presentation file as PPT on SlideShare app I am using SlideShare to view presentation. Sometimes I want to transfer the presentation to my PC and view it on projector. However, in the Android app, there is only a save feature to view it offline.

I know I can use its website to download the .ppt files, but is there any way to get the .ppt from the app?
I found that the presentation saved by this app isn't in .ppt format but each slide is sliced into a .jpg having a numeric name, and the images are found only under /data/data/net.slideshare.mobile/files/
E.g. A presentation with 78 pages was sliced into images with names ranging from 7456179_00.jpg, 7456179_01.jpg...7456179_78.jpg.
Note that all the related presentation images  will be having a numeric string like 7456179 in the beginning of name, which is exactly the ss_id defined in the table slideshows of database slideshows under /data/data/net.slideshare.mobile/databases/.
Now, here is the disappointing news because all of the said information probably wouldn't be of any worth to you, since this app has declaration of android:allowbackup=&quot;false&quot; in its AndroidManifest.xml. What it means is any non-system/root backup app won't be able to touch this app's data, including ADB and Helium which I deliberately try despite clear evidence of failure. It seems that there isn't much of a choice left to backup the presentation (or what has become of it).
What's next? There is one thing that I can think of. If your device is not rooted and you're or can make yourself aware of extracting backup made by your device's Recovery, then go ahead and take backup from it since Recovery doesn't care or even know those &quot;disallow backup declarations&quot;, and it should take backup of your app too, among other things.
For root users
You now know what to do:

You can copy-paste images from  /data/data/net.slideshare.mobile/files/ into your SD card and then into PC, or may be do adb pull,
You can also find out easily which ss_id belongs to which presentation using an SQL query or an app like SQLite Editor,
You can take backup by Titanium Backup, export it, and extract it to see the files,
and any possible way you can think of. :)
