You can follow my tutorials on displaying data from Assets: https://xjaphx.wordpress.com/2011/10/02/store-and-use-files-in-assets/
The sample with loading image and text to display.
I now added the relevant part of the provided link
(in case of earthquake or something) 😉 Taifun
// load image
try {
// get input stream
InputStream ims = getAssets().open("avatar.jpg");
// load image as Drawable
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(ims, null);
// set image to ImageView
mImage.setImageDrawable(d);
}
catch(IOException ex) {
return;
}
