Android bluetooth client receive xml

Question

I'm new at android development and I'm creating simple bluetooth app that can receive xml file and save xml file values to database. But how can I receive xml file from bytes array? Is it possible? After searchinf I found this question and based ont that question I try to save byte array to file. But how I need to test it? I can't find my file in my phone.

                  case Constants.MESSAGE_READ:
                    byte[] readBuffer = (byte[]) msg.obj;

                    try {
                        String path = activity.getFilesDir() + "/myFile.xml";
                        Log.d("MuTestClass", path);
                        FileOutputStream stream = new FileOutputStream(path);
                        stream.write(readBuffer);
                        stream.close();
                    } catch (Exception e1) {
                        e1.printStackTrace();
                    }
                    break;

You can use:

class Utils{

    public static InputStream openFile(String filename) throws IOException{
        AssetManager assManager = getApplicationContext().getAssets();
        InputStream is = null;
        is = assManager.open(filename);
        return new BufferedInputStream(is);
    }

    public static byte[] readBytes(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
        ByteArrayOutputStream byteBuffer = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

        int bufferSize = 1024;
        byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
        int len = 0;

        while ((len = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
            byteBuffer.write(buffer, 0, len);
        }
        return byteBuffer.toByteArray();
    }
}

like this:

try {
     Utils.readBytes(Utils.openFile("something.xml"));
} catch (IOException e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
}
