icu file issue

[andpro]

I have a 2.3 rooted box. I copied the icudt461.dat (unzipped) one in /system/usr/icu
It gives me a error: Error copying icu data fileicudt46l.zip

It works fine when it is included in the asset folder.

Last part of this page http://sqlcipher.net/sqlcipher-for-android/ says it is suffcient for
the file to be in the /system/usr/icu directory. Why the discrepancy?

Thanks

Hi andpro,

The file it is looking for in the /system/usr/icu directory is called icudt46l.dat, not icudt461.dat. Could you try renaming the file and let us know how that works? Thanks!

The 2 files listed are same.. The file I have is icudt461.dat

Hi andpro,

Yes, I believe that is the problem. The file should be titled icudt46l.dat within the zip, but you said you have icudt461.dat. Could you try changing the file name, note the difference where mine contains a lower case l, and you have a 1.

Works now. Thank you

Hello, Please note this issue is also caused when you do not place the icudt461.zip file within the assets directory. Referencing this for other individuals. Cheers...

In jellybean the file by default on the device is icudt481. Do I need to copy the icudat461 as well?
Thanks

Hi andpro,

Correct, SQLCipher for Android specifically uses the 4.6 version of the ICU project.
