Question

  QFile mfile(filename);
  if (!mfile.open(QFile::WriteOnly) {
    qDebug() << "Could not open file for writing";
    return;
  }
  QDataStream out(&mfile);
  out.setVersion(QDataStream::Qt_4_8);
  out << ch;
  mfile.close();
}

open binary file and writing 'b'(binary)

void read(QString filename) {

Can you properly write your question? You just paste some code and expect people to answer in a proper way? Also, how can this ever help someone else with similar problem? — Felipe Tonello

the 4 number is the length of your data. QDataStream store length of your data before it to indicate how many bytes need to read to gain the written data. your data has been written after it.
