Description
I'm able to sometimes save files and sometime open files. I really don't like the hacky zip file approach that was taken to adding resources to the app. We should restructure this part of ofxAndroid.

Research direction
The issue points to ofxAndroid's Android file I/O and its zip-based resource handling, but names no files or tests. Begin by locating those entry points and reproducing both save and open failures; done means the resource approach is restructured and both operations work reliably.
