I am currently working on an app in which I display all sorts of different stats about the device it is installed on. One of these stats are used/total space of SDcards. I got it working with the answers found Here and Here.
The thing is, I believe anyhow, that without root permission, it will not return a "true" value of the Internal (emulated) SDcard. Here is some code:
How I retrieve Sd location(s) and size(s):
new StorageUtils();
ArrayList<StorageInfo> storageInfoList = StorageUtils.getStorageList();
if (storageInfoList.size() > 0) {
tvStorageAName = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tvStorageAName);
tvStorageAName.setText(storageInfoList.get(0).path);
devStorageA = StorageUtils.getReadableFileSize(
(StorageUtils.getUsedSpace(storageInfoList.get(0).path)),
true)
+ "/"
+ StorageUtils.getReadableFileSize((StorageUtils
.getTotalSpace(storageInfoList.get(0).path)), true);
if (storageInfoList.size() > 1) {
tvStorageBName = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tvStorageBName);
tvStorageBName.setText(storageInfoList.get(1).path);
devStorageB = StorageUtils.getReadableFileSize(
StorageUtils.getUsedSpace(storageInfoList.get(1).path)
+ (StorageUtils.getUsedSpace("system/")), true)
+ "/"
+ StorageUtils.getReadableFileSize((StorageUtils
.getTotalSpace(storageInfoList.get(1).path)),
true);
} else {
devStorageB = "N/A";
}
} else {
devStorageA = "N/A";
devStorageB = "N/A";
}
My StorageUtils class:
public class StorageUtils {
private static final String TAG = "StorageUtils";
public static class StorageInfo {
public final String path;
public final boolean internal;
public final boolean readonly;
public final int display_number;
StorageInfo(String path, boolean internal, boolean readonly,
int display_number) {
this.path = path;
this.internal = internal;
this.readonly = readonly;
this.display_number = display_number;
}
}
public static ArrayList<StorageInfo> getStorageList() {
ArrayList<StorageInfo> list = new ArrayList<StorageInfo>();
String def_path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath();
boolean def_path_internal = !Environment.isExternalStorageRemovable();
String def_path_state = Environment.getExternalStorageState();
boolean def_path_available = def_path_state
.equals(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED)
|| def_path_state.equals(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED_READ_ONLY);
boolean def_path_readonly = Environment.getExternalStorageState()
.equals(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED_READ_ONLY);
BufferedReader buf_reader = null;
try {
HashSet<String> paths = new HashSet<String>();
buf_reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("/proc/mounts"));
String line;
int cur_display_number = 1;
Log.d(TAG, "/proc/mounts");
while ((line = buf_reader.readLine()) != null) {
Log.d(TAG, line);
if (line.contains("vfat") || line.contains("/mnt")) {
StringTokenizer tokens = new StringTokenizer(line, " ");
String unused = tokens.nextToken(); // device
String mount_point = tokens.nextToken(); // mount point
if (paths.contains(mount_point)) {
continue;
}
unused = tokens.nextToken(); // file system
List<String> flags = Arrays.asList(tokens.nextToken()
.split(",")); // flags
boolean readonly = flags.contains("ro");
if (mount_point.equals(def_path)) {
paths.add(def_path);
list.add(new StorageInfo(def_path, def_path_internal,
readonly, -1));
} else if (line.contains("/dev/block/vold")) {
if (!line.contains("/mnt/secure")
&& !line.contains("/mnt/asec")
&& !line.contains("/mnt/obb")
&& !line.contains("/dev/mapper")
&& !line.contains("tmpfs")) {
paths.add(mount_point);
list.add(new StorageInfo(mount_point, false,
readonly, cur_display_number++));
}
}
}
}
if (!paths.contains(def_path) && def_path_available) {
list.add(new StorageInfo(def_path, def_path_internal,
def_path_readonly, -1));
}
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (buf_reader != null) {
try {
buf_reader.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
}
}
}
return list;
}
public static String getReadableFileSize(long bytes, boolean si) {
int unit = si ? 1000 : 1024;
if (bytes < unit)
return bytes + " B";
int exp = (int) (Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(unit));
String pre = (si ? "kMGTPE" : "KMGTPE").charAt(exp - 1)
+ (si ? "" : "i");
return String.format("%.1f %sB", bytes / Math.pow(unit, exp), pre);
}

}
}
Question is I guess, Is this the most accurate way of getting these sizes (without root permissions), or is there a better way of doing this? Any and all help is greatly appreciated, thank you for taking the time to read this!
EDIT: external SDcards are not giving me a problem at all. Internal SDcards (also seems to be the data/ directory) is not showing the grand total. It lacks ~ 5Gb on my test device. Any ideas?
EDIT2: I had a friend test on their phone, and internal showed 36.0 GB (used)/ 8.6 GB (total), why would this return such sporadic results? How would an app, say a file-manager return results?
