Good to know. :D
And I’m looking at Ali’s sources which seem to really help… thank you so much.

Happy new year and good luck!

I remember that Ari Derbane commented something about that in his talk about expansion files at DroidConNL a few years ago, maybe you can find an answer on his blog: http://blogmobile.itude.com/2012/11/22/expanding-your-horizons-using-expansion-files-for-android/

I’m trying to mount my main expansion file using the very method you posted, but main.isFile() SOMETIMES returns false.

I still don’t know why and when it happens.
I tried putting extra java.io.File methods such as exists() and the file itself looks fine.

Can you think of any potential reasons?
I would appreciate any idea.

Thank you.
