Not more than me at first, I guess … but we’re getting there 
…
I’m playing around with OSes just now anyway, so why not Fairphone Open OS …
I’ve installed Fairphone Open OS 18.04.1 just now with the steps I linked to before.
- Enabled developer options
- Set Root access to “Apps only”
- Enabled Apps from unknown sources
- Installed F-Droid by downloading it from f-droid.org
- Installed Amaze from F-Droid
- Started Amaze
– Prompt for access to files etc. - Granted
Without further measures Amaze gave me Internal Storage and my SD card to work with.
- Enabled Root Explorer in the Settings
- Prompt for superuser access - Enabled “Remember” and granted
After that Amaze additionally offered the root folder “/”, and I could navigate there and look around … so root was in effect somewhat.
I then tried to create a new file and a new folder there … both times reportedly “successful” … but both times nowhere to be seen afterwards. Hmmm.
I then navigated to my SD card and tried the same … prompts some blabla about write permission. Well, I learn that is working as intended probably.
I then went to Internal Storage into the Pictures folder to check whether creating files and folders actually worked … and I could create a file and a folder. But that worked without the Root Explorer setting, too.
So even with Root Explorer enabled it seems the OS will not let the user do everything. I can understand that, actually, but it is still unexpected when I have root.
@frederiiiic Which other App gave you trouble? Perhaps the root effect would be clearer to see there.
