title: FileNotFoundException when accessing file stored at /storage/emulated/0 directory in android
body: <p>I am trying to pass the recorded video file saved in /storage/emulated/0/Videos/someVideo.3gp in android to remote server through POST HTTP method. I used <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/11151606/2082270">this</a> as a way to pass video file to remote server in FileBody format. But, at the end when I am trying to execute <code>httpClient.execute(request)</code> command it just keep throwing <strong>FileNotFoundException</strong>. </p>
  
  <p>So, I don't understand why the video file is not accessible to outside world since I had saved it to sdcard using <code>getExternalStorageDirectory()</code>. I also had added write permissions to manifest file.</p>
  
  <p>P.S. I am using Nexus 7 to test this. Please help..</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
