Android set last modified time for the file

Question

I have been using " public boolean setLastModified (long time) " for setting the file modified time but it always return false. I have seen few similar posts related to this but none of them could work for me. can someone give me solution for this?

Please do not post me any URL's, I have already seen them :

file.lastModified() is never what was set with file.setLastModified()

Is it possible to reset the last modified date of an Android file?

Answer 1

setLastModified() is apparently unreliable on Android, perhaps working on some devices and not on others.
