How to edit metadata on a file associated with a LinkedData?

I have a LinkedData entity that has a file linked to it. I would like to edit the metadata and make the file public but I don't know how to do that. I have tried many different ways to do it but nothing I have tried works. I have used this tutorial http://devcenter.kinvey.com/android/guides/files.

Hey,

Take a look at the source code of StatusShare-- this sample use LinkedData extensively.

Specifically, check out around line 150 of this file: https://github.com/KinveyApps/StatusShare-Android/blob/master/status-share/src/com/kinvey/samples/statusshare/fragments/UpdateEditFragment.java

if (bytes != null && filename != null) {

Log.i(Client.TAG, "there is an attachment!");

LinkedFile lf = new LinkedFile(filename);

lf.addExtra("_public", true);

KinveyMetaData.AccessControlList acl = new KinveyMetaData.AccessControlList();

acl.setGloballyReadable(true);

lf.addExtra("_acl", acl);

updateEntity.putFile("attachment", lf);

}
