Bug ID: 451437
Summary: For Android 10 and 11, KDEConnect cannot send files
from phone/tablet (needs upgraded file permissions)
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: joskra42.l...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In Android 10 and 11, new permissions are needed for apps to access locations
outside of their own directories. The permission MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
should enable this (see
https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/manage-all-files)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On an Android 10 or 11 device that has been paired to a computer, attempt
to send a file to the computer.
OBSERVED RESULT
The file is not transferred. Additionally, if logs are available (through
LogCat or other means), a permission denied error is observed when KDEConnect
attempts to open the file to send it.
EXPECTED RESULT
File should be transferred properly.
