I've seen the latest updates have moved to the Android/data/org.dolphinemu-dolphinemu/files path. However, every file or folder under this path shows up as read-only in every file manager, even in Google Files, or through USB. This means I cannot import my old saves, configs, etc. I'm using a OnePlus 9 Pro on stock Oxygen OS 11. When I try to open the "System File Manager" from within Dolphin, it just says I don't have one. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just broken? Thanks in advance
Scoped storage issues

That's odd. For me, everything that works for reading from it also works for writing to it... But then again, I have a phone from a different manufacturer.

If there's anything I can do to help track this down, just say the word. Screenshots, screen recordings, logs... Right now, Dolphin is completely unusable to me because of this (unless I start everything over)... 11-02-2021, 02:14 AM
Assuming that there are other people with this issue too, I'll have to add some kind of export/import option for the user directory. Less convenient than being able to edit it directly, but much better than nothing.

However, if there's anything that I can do to help track down why this is happening or if it's just me (maybe check any kind of permission settings on my phone?), just say the word. I am a power user, but I'm not immune to missing something stupid. 11-02-2021, 10:36 AM

I tried using the AOSP Files app and Speed Explorer, both of displayed the contents of the folder with no issue, but threw errors whenever I tried to actually copy files into it, so no dice... 11-02-2021, 10:52 PM

Thanks in advance The /sdcard/android directory is read only according to the CDD for android 11, so outside of devices doing things they shouldn’t, that is correct behaviour. Google has really locked down file system access with scoped storage, and it’s a big pain. 11-02-2021, 10:57 PM

Google has really locked down file system access with scoped storage, and it’s a big pain. So what's happening here is that @JosJuice and @LGFanatic have phones that are allowing write access through USB or AOSP Files to a directory that normally shouldn't have it, and mine's the lone wolf enforcing proper behavior and leaving me in the dust? That's a pain (and, as I've said, it's currently making Dolphin unusable to me, since I need to restore my saves)... 11-03-2021, 12:57 AM

If that is in the CDD, that must be applying just to the Android directory itself and not its subdirectories, right? Because the vast majority of people that I've seen have been able to move files to Android/data/org.dolphinemu-dolphinemu/files using either USB or the X-plore app. If it does apply to its subdirectories... Well, clearly that can't be universally true, because Dolphin is able to write to the subdirectory that's dedicated to it. Could you point me to the right section of the CDD? |
