With the help of this function we can unzip file with in any given folder in sdcard :

String szName = "";
while ((zipEntry = inZip.getNextEntry()) != null) {
szName = zipEntry.getName();
if (zipEntry.isDirectory()) {
szName = szName.substring(0, szName.length() - 1);
java.io.File folder = new java.io.File(outPathString + java.io.File.separator + szName);

} else {
