Check if file exists in internal directory

Im checking if a file excists in a directory. If not it should download it.

    File file = new File(mediadir, _name);

    if(file.exists()) {
        Log.i("FILE EXISTS", _name);
    } else {
        Log.i("DOWNLOAD", _name);
        new Download().execute(context, name, "http://192.168.2.136:8080/rest/transfer/"+ linkid +"/"+ username +"/" + json_data.getString("ID"));
}

But file.exists() is always true

the file does not exists on there

I run this right before the file.exists()

        File mediadir = getDir("tvr", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
        if (mediadir.isDirectory()) {
            String[] children = mediadir.list();
            for (int i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
                new File(mediadir, children[i]).delete();
            }
        }

Try this,

  for (File f : myDir.listFiles()) {
  //Do your stuf
   String name = f.getName();
  //Here you will get file you have already stored in directory.

  }

Have you tried using isFile() instead?
