I've used Android SDK to resolve this problem. You can look how use java with apportable here.

This is my java code

static private byte[] readBytes(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
    // this dynamically extends to take the bytes you read
    ByteArrayOutputStream byteBuffer = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

    // this is storage overwritten on each iteration with bytes
    int bufferSize = 1048576;
    byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];

    // we need to know how may bytes were read to write them to the byteBuffer
    int len = 0;
    while ((len = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
        byteBuffer.write(buffer, 0, len);
    }

    // and then we can return your byte array.
    return byteBuffer.toByteArray();
}

public byte[] dataFromUrl(String path, Activity activity) {
    Uri uri = Uri.parse(path);

    InputStream is = null;
    byte[] data = null;

    try {
        is = activity.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
        data = readBytes(is);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return data;
}

And Objective-C part

+ (void)initializeJava
{
    [super initializeJava]; 

    // here your initialize code
    ...

    [KeyboardBridge registerInstanceMethod:@"dataFromUrl"
                                  selector:@selector(dataFromUrl:forActivity:)
                               returnValue:[NSData className]
                                 arguments:[NSString className], [AndroidActivity className], nil];

}

- (NSData *)dataFromUrl:(NSString *)path {
    return [self dataFromUrl:path forActivity:[AndroidActivity currentActivity]];
}
