title: Saving Images in to local folder in android
body: <p>I created android app which reads images from url. Now I want to store those images in local file structure or SD Card. so i created a folder names "images" in my android project and added image xyz.png manually to test reading of images. </p>
  
  <p>and wrote below code to read.</p>
  
  <pre><code>  Bitmap bMap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile("/images/xyz.png");
  
      ImageView imgView = (ImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.imgViewId);
  
      imgView.setImageBitmap(bMap);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But eclipse says unable to find the resource!!</p>
  
  <p>What is the best way to store and read images in android app? </p>
  
  <p>I did caching but cache get clears if i force close the app.</p>
  
  <p>I want to store in android mobile/tablet and it should be part of app.</p>
