Question

The Android platform have a number of “ready easy use” dialog such as
ProgressDialog, DatePickerDialog and TimePickerDialog, these are fire and wait
boxes, that is, they handle UI, right data and return something.

Is there a similar dialogbox for the mediastorage ?

I want something like “AudioFilePickerDialog” which shows a UI to the user
where the user pick a audio file and return the path/uri to the audio file.

Do I need to build this dialog box up myself or does it exists somewhere ?

One of the few examples I have found is
Given an Android music playlist name, how can one find the songs in the playlist?

but this handles playlists.

Answer 1

I found a tutorial for something like a FileChooser here. You should be able to make it only show Music-Files (like .mp3).

Also, to browser the SDcard of your Android Device, you can use the standard Java File-class, like in normal Java.
