    As per my knowledge you can’t because /asset directory is not writeable, So you can’t make any changes on file which are in /asset directory, Its because Android .apk file is only readable.

    For more info look at this discussion Writing to file Assets folder And this SO question How to write files to assets folder or raw folder in android?
