Answer 1

Try:

Bitmap shareThis = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),
                                       R.drawable.shareThis);

Answer 2

If you want to reference it from a JavaScript or html file in your assets folder, use file:///android_asset/www/sharethis.jpg.

Otherwise, according to this answer, this will list all the files in the assets folder:

AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
String[] files = assetManager.list("");

This to open a certain file:

InputStream input = assetManager.open(assetName);

Answer 3

Try this:

 try {

    // get input stream

    InputStream ims = getAssets().open("sharethis.png");

    // load image as Drawable

    Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(ims, null);

    // set image to ImageView
    mImage.setImageDrawable(d);

}

catch(IOException ex) {

      Log.e("I/O ERROR","Failed")
}

Answer 4

Instead of using the assets dir, put the file into /res/raw , and you can then access it using the following URI: android.resource://com.your.packagename/" + R.raw.sharethis
