how to save ArrayList into internal Storage

I'm trying to make an inventory apps to save item by item into internal storage. Here is my layout. The problem is it possible to save arraylist into document text file / other internal storage? Because fos.write(listitem.getBytes()); should be in Int. Here is my code from Activity2
package com.example.java;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class MainActivity2 extends AppCompatActivity {
public static final String extraint = "1";
public static final String namabarang = "2";
public static final String jumlahstock ="3";
public static final String FILE_NAME="example.txt";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main2);
Intent intent = getIntent();
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this,
R.array.planets_array, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
}
public void onBtnClick(View view){
TextView plain1 = findViewById(R.id.NamaBarang);
TextView plain2 = findViewById(R.id.SKU);
TextView plain3 = findViewById(R.id.JumlahStok);
TextView plain4 = findViewById(R.id.HargaBeli);
TextView plain5 = findViewById(R.id.HargaJual);
Intent intent = new Intent(this,MainActivity3.class);
String x = "1";
String text = plain1.getText().toString();
FileOutputStream fos = null;
Item m1 = new Item("a","1");
Item m2 = new Item("b","2");
Item m3 = new Item("c","3");
ArrayList<Item> listitem = new ArrayList<>();
listitem.add(m1);
listitem.add(m2);
listitem.add(m3);
try {
fos = openFileOutput(FILE_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE);
fos.write(listitem.getBytes());
Toast.makeText(this,"Saved to" +getFilesDir() + "/" + FILE_NAME,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}catch(FileNotFoundException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
if(fos != null){
try{
fos.close();
}catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
intent.putExtra(extraint,x);
intent.putExtra(FILE_NAME,text);
intent.putExtra(namabarang,plain1.getText().toString());
intent.putExtra(jumlahstock,plain3.getText().toString());
startActivity(intent);
}
}

for(int i=0;i<loop;i++) {
Item sparepart = new Item(result, result);
itemlist.add(sparepart);
}
PersonListAdapter adapter = new PersonListAdapter(this, R.layout.adapter_view_layout,itemlist);

String number = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity2.extraint);
if(number != null) {

The apps supposed to save one item by item into the internal storage which where i try to utilize array to save the into the internal storage, but it it possible to save and read array to internal storage?

Android Studio - Import data from csv and show in text (app crashes)

I am trying to import data from a csv file but my application crashes everytime. Below is my code that I have written. I receive no errors.
My main aim is to import data from the specified csv file and put in the variable called count_car. I want to show the value in the text box when I click the button. But I could not import the data from csv file.
package com.example.deneme2;

TextView textView1 = findViewById(R.id.textView2);
Button button = findViewById(R.id.button);
String path = "C:\\Users\\baran\\Desktop\\FALL 2020\\ELEC491\\deneme\\11111111111\\venv\\numberofcars.csv";
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
BufferedReader csvReader = null;
try {
csvReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
String count_car = null;
int counting =0;
while (true) {
try {
if (!((count_car = csvReader.readLine()) != null)) break;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
//String[] data = count_car.split(",");
String count_cars = count_car;
int count_park= 100;
String countpark = String.valueOf(count_park);
String countcars = String.valueOf(count_cars);
text_ones.setText(countpark);
text_zeros.setText(countcars);
counting = counting +1 ;
if (counting == 50);
break;
}
}
});
}
}

I have changed the code. Now I am using different method. But the app starts to crash again. Is there any opinion? Thanks for answers.

My final code is here. I have solved my problems and imported data from csv file. I have used videoview to show video. Now I am trying to solve the delay problem.
I want the below for loop function to wait for 1 second or 50 ms. But I could not find the solution.
for (int i = 1; i < counter-1;i= i +1){
String count_park = number_of_cars.get(0)[i];
text_cars.setText(count_park);
//SystemClock.sleep(1000); //ms
Log.d("Selam","SORUN YOK");
}
If anyone can help, I appreciate it :) Thanks for your answers.

JSON file parsing ran into errors in ANDROID

I am trying to parse data from json using an API, but I don't know for what reasons when I am calculating the size of m_name3 it is showing 0 but the data is being parsed through the file. When putting toast at String name = o.getString("name"); it is showing the content of name string, so this means it is parsing the data but not storing in arraylist. I don't know why. Please help!

Since your stringRequest runs on a different thread, you can't be sure if you already have the response by the time you are showing the toast, so you should have a look at the size only after you have the response.
In short, move the toast inside of onResponse:
stringRequest = new StringRequest(Request.Method.GET,
url_all,
new Response.Listener<String>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(String s) {
try {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(s);
JSONArray array = jsonObject.getJSONArray("movies");
for (int i = 0; i < array.length(); i++) {
JSONObject o = array.getJSONObject(i);
String name = o.getString("name");
String year = o.getString("year");
String genre = o.getString("genre");
String rating = o.getString("rating");
String director = o.getString("directors_name");
String actor = o.getString("cast");
String img_src = o.getString("poster_src");
String desc = o.getString("description");
m_name3.add(name);
m_release_year3.add(year);
m_genre3.add(genre);

How to upload image Android to Server using PHP mysql

I have a problem about uploading images from android to a server, the problem is about the android version, my application can run on android version 2.3 but can not run on version > 2.3. these is my code
function TambahLokasi()
{
$base = $_REQUEST["gambar"];
if (isset($base)){
$suffix = createRandomID();
$image_name = "img_".$suffix."_".date("Y-m-d-H-m-s").".jpg";
$binary = base64_decode($base);
header("Content-Type: bitmap; charset=utf-8");
$file = fopen("gambar/" . $image_name, "wb");
fwrite($file, $binary);
fclose($file);
$username = $_POST['USERNAME'];
$loc_name = $_POST['LOCATION_NAME'];
$category = $_POST['CATEGORY'];
$address = $_POST['ADDRESS'];
$city = $_POST['CITY'];
$descript = $_POST['DESCRIPTION'];
$own = $_POST['OWNER'];
$lat = $_POST['lat'];
$lng = $_POST['lng'];
$query = "insert into location (USERNAME,LOCATION_NAME,CATEGORY,ADDRESS,CITY,DESCRIPTION,OWNER,lat,lng,gambar)values ('$username', '$loc_name', '$category', '$address','$city','$descript','$own','$lat','$lng','$image_name')";
//$query = "insert into pasien values ('','n', 'n', 'n', 'n','bar','','','n','n','n')";
$hasil = mysql_query($query);
if($hasil)
{
$respon["success"] = "1";
$respon["pesan"] = "Data berhasil diinput";
echo json_encode($respon);
}
else
{
$respon["success"] = "0";
$respon["pesan"] = "Data gagal diinput. Mohon cek kembali.";
echo json_encode($respon);
die($image_name);
}
}else {
die("No POST");
}
}
function createRandomID() {
$chars = "abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789?";
//srand((double) microtime() * 1000000);
$i = 0;
$pass = "";
while ($i <= 5) {
$num = rand() % 33;
$tmp = substr($chars, $num, 1);
$pass = $pass . $tmp;
$i++;
}
return $pass;
}

The culprit is most likely related to this line:
image_name = uploader.execute(getRealPathFromURI(currImageURI)).get();
You're firing an AsyncTask from inside another AsyncTask, and the first one blocks until the second is completed. But, from the documentation:
Starting with HONEYCOMB, tasks are executed on a single thread to
avoid common application errors caused by parallel execution.
Since the second task never gets to start (in Android >= 3.0), the first one never gets to finish.
You could fix this by using executeOnExecutor(THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR)...
... but I would suggest changing your code. Since the first task does nothing (i/o, networking) that would need a background thread, that code can just run in the UI thread. Provide the second (now, only) task with a callback to call in onPostExecute() when it has the result. See android asynctask sending callbacks to ui for a good example of this pattern.
Using get() on AsyncTasks is rarely a good idea.

Pass values of array inbetween classes

I am using a spinner when selected starts an intent and the class that is started gets and XML feed and displays it.
I am trying to call a different XML file based on what is selected by the user. I am not sure how the value can be passed to my XMLfunctions.java and once selected can the other classes reference that data?
HERE is my Eclipse Package Download
My thourghts were to have a multidimensional array with the titles for the spinner and the coinsiding XML url:
package com.patriotsar;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.ActivityNotFoundException;
import android.content.Context;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class patriosar extends Activity {
private Button goButton;
private String array_spinner[];
String url = "http://www.patriotsar.com";
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri u = Uri.parse(url);
Context context = this;
Spinner areaspinner;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
array_spinner=new String[4];
array_spinner[0]="George Washington","gw.xml";
array_spinner[1]="BENJAMIN FRANKLIN","bf.xml";
array_spinner[2]="THOMAS JEFFERSON","tj.xml";
array_spinner[3]="PATRICK HENRY","ph.xml";
goButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.goButton);
areaspinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.areaspinner);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter =
new ArrayAdapter<String> (this,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,array_spinner);
areaspinner.setAdapter(adapter);
goButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v){
try {
// Start the activity
i.setData(u);
startActivity(i);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
// Raise on activity not found
Toast.makeText(context, "Browser not found.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
}
}
});
areaspinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1,
int arg2, long arg3) {
int item = areaspinner.getSelectedItemPosition();
if(item != 0){
Intent myIntent = new Intent(patriosar.this, ShowXMLPAR.class);
startActivityForResult(myIntent, 0);
}
else {
// finish();
}
}
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
}
});
}
}
I then have a listener that calls an intent ShowXMLPAR.class when an item other then default is selected. The ShowXMLPAR class calls a function from XMLfunctions.java class and then shows the data that is returned. So the second value in the selected array item needs to be passed to to both pages I guess.

Sorry I am still learning but am excited to get into more advanced (for me) programming. Any Help would be awesome.
As of now the app works but calls the same xml no matter what.

I'm not following your description very well, but if you are wanting to pass data between Activities via Intents then make sure the data you pass can either be included as an Extra, or if you prefer to send actual objects then make sure your objects implement the Parcelable interface.
