Sd fix

[Akt]

Hi,
SD fix app works on Android 4 and 5 and what to do in Android 6??

[Desmanto]

Don't really understand what do you mean. If you want access to external storage (microsd), since Lollipop (including Marshmallow), there is Storage Access Framework already.
You only need to grant Automagic the permission, look at Automagic Preferences - External SD card access, unhide the SD card and select the root of your microSD.
You can now write to your microsd thru Automagic. (example : save file to microSD)

What about adopted Storage?

[Desmanto]

AFAIK, adoptable storage works just like internal virtual SDcard, no need to grant any additional permission. Only portable storage needs the additional External SD card Access.

Oh, one thing to be noted. If you are using MIUI 7.0+, something is wrong with the default setting for microSD access. Xiaomi seems to disable the Documents (com.android.documentsui) by default, which is the app that store the Storage Acess Framework permission (SAF). So, if you try to grant Automagic the SAF permission, it will failed. You should go to manage app and enable the Documents first (in All Apps/Disabled Apps), then you grant the permission as usual.

This problem seems to get more complicated, trying to give it permissions in the externalstorage.ui


results in a 'crash'

My Post was not a 'tutorial', but a bug report

[Desmanto]

@Bluscre : That two is different problem. For granting external SDcard access, it seem your documents didn't response properly. If you have no problem reselecting SDcard path for all other app, you can try to clear data for the documents (com.android.documentsui), and try to grant the permission again. Sometimes the database corrupt and can't be written with new app permission.

For can't select file at root folder, it has been ever asked before. It is probably because the action was run using normal user privilege.

You have to use execute root command.

@Akt : Do you have that documents (com.android.documentsui) at your phone? What is your phone, and what ROM do you use? Some ported Lolipop ROM may have remove this feature for kernel compatibility with kitkat. For that, Automagic can't do anything about it.
