I need to download an image from url and save it in the app's drawable-hdpi folder and then show it in ImageView. How I can do it?
I tried using this and this code but it's not a good solution for me because this code saves on the SDCard.

1You can not save images to hdpi folder,instead save in internal memory which can only be accessed by your app. – Giru Bhai Oct 13 '14 at 11:27

You cannot save in the app package. You only have these options:
Your data storage options are the following:
Shared Preferences Store private primitive data in key-value pairs. Internal Storage Store private data on the device memory. External Storage Store public data on the shared external storage. SQLite Databases Store structured data in a private database. Network Connection Store data on the web with your own network server.

Yes, the apk file/ folders structure is create in build time so it is impossible to add a new image to the drawable hdpi folder – Sandro Machado Oct 13 '14 at 11:29
