I made an android app which writes to a file in an activity.
The writing to file, it works like a charm:

FileOutputStream fOut = openFileOutput("myfeeds.txt",
                    MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
         OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut);
         osw.write(file);
         osw.flush();
         osw.close();

But when I want to read it back from another acivity it can’t find the file…the file exists I checked with DDMS file explorer.
Reading file contents:

         FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("myfeeds.txt");    // cant find file
         InputSource input = new InputSource(fis);
         xr.setContentHandler(this);
         xr.parse(input);

What is the correct location to my file?

    Use openFileInput to get FileInputStream object for those files which are written using openFileOutputStream

    use the following code

    FileInputStream fiss = openFileInput("myfeeds.txt");
    InputSource input = new InputSource(fis);
             xr.setContentHandler(this);
             xr.parse(input);
