You can give path of assets folder like this:

file:///android_asset/<folder_name>/<file_name>

In your case it, will be

file:///android_asset/arc/Navigation_ND_schema

I tried this File f1=new File("file:///android_asset/arc/Navigation_ND_schema"); and checked if f1 exists,but it doesn't so does any one has another solution? – robel May 01 '15 at 11:35
