Do tell us the actual error/stacktrace, but this is probably impossible.
Assets are not actual files, stored in the app's directory, and
I don't think there is no way to set permissions or read them
from another application. If you need to share files copy/extract
them to the SD card (external storage), or just spend some time
on writing an ContentProvider.
