I recently installed FP OOS (thanks again to those who helped me getting it to run) and now want to install my first update. As suggested here, I want to do a Titanium Backup first. This, in turn, I want to save onto my external SD card, but in the relevant setting inside Titanium Backup (correct me if I’m wrong: Preferences - Backup folder location - Storage provider: Filesystem (click to change) - Filesystem storage) it says “This folder is not writable” when I choose a folder on the external SD card. It does say it’s writable when I’m in a folder on the device itself.
I thought the reason might be the external SD card writing permissions, even though I’m on Android 6 (shouldn’t this be fixed in Android 6?). So I pulled platform.xml with adb, but it doesn’t have the same code as in the 2nd post in this thread (the permission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE). I assume this is due to Android 6 not being 5. In the only relevant part it says:
(permission name=“android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE” )
(group gid=“media_rw” /)
(group gid=“sdcard_rw” /)
(/permission)
(had to change the triangular brackets to round ones because otherwise you have to use some formatting voodoo for them to show up on this forum)
So it does have the media_rw permission. Does anyone know where the problem lies?
