Issue in the Assets folder

Question

I had an issue where a font didnt work and it gave me a FC. So I put the font file into the sdcard, and used CreateFromFile in the typeface and the font worked!
Here is the code I used for the Assets folder:

        holder.tv_SuraName   =(TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.Start_Name);
    holder.tv_SuraName.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(mContext.getAssets(), "suralist_font.ttf"));

But I changed the code to this and it worked:

            holder.tv_SuraName = (TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.Start_Name);
        Typeface Font = Typeface.createFromFile(new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/asd.ttf"));

Does this mean I have a problem in the Assets folder? How can I fix this? Thanks
