You can't modify any files in res dynamically during run time. They are read-only.

Instead for this kind of purpose I would recommend you to go for Shared Preference.

You can't change a String resource (or any other type of XML-declared resources) at runtime. Create a String variable in one of you classes that initializes with the resource String and you may change that at your will.
