SUMMARY
As mentioned previously (Bug 489666), when KDE Connect was upgraded to 1.31.1,
the remote file system did not work properly, asking for a password.
The issue was fixed in version 1.32, but remains somewhat problematic in lower
versions of Android (e.g. Android 10). And it still exists in version 1.32.1.
KDE Connect in higher versions of Android (e.g. Android13) will directly use
the entire internal storage root directory as the home directory, and you can
browse and transfer files normally on the PC-based SFTP client. On Android 10,
it requires the user to manually select the folders to be shared, and when the
internal storage root directory is used as the folder to be shared, it cannot
be accessed on the PC SFTP client, and the SFTP client will be unresponsive.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Update KDE Connect to version 1.32 (on an Android 10 device)
2. Configure the internal storage root directory as a “storage location” in the
Open File System plugin.
3. Right-click on the KDE Connect indicator on the PC and select the Android 10
device and select the Browse Files function.
4. The SFTP client does not respond because it cannot access the above “storage
location”.
OBSERVED RESULT
SFTP client not responding
EXPECTED RESULT
The SFTP client normally accesses the folder that is mapped to the internal
storage root directory
