Android_storage permissions

Bug Reports
#21

a) Wait for the update, or
b) Try the following:

cd /home/defaultuser/android_storage
ls -al

If the file .storage_migration_done is missing then what follows should help to eliminate the problem and correct access rights. Run the following command in android_storage:

devel-su touch -d '2022-01-01' .storage_migration_done

Then, using the Settings app:

  • stop Android AppSupport
  • start Android AppSupport

This should be it.
In folder /home/defaultuser/android_storage , the flag file .storage_migration_done should exist now and have the current date. The subfolders should have access rights similar to those of DCIM below (except for the Android folder).

-rw-rwxr--    1 root     root             0 Sep 11 10:33 .storage_migration_done
drwxrwx---    3 510036   510036        4096 Aug 19 17:45 DCIM

Good that it helped you out. But I am just the messenger. It was @direc85 who investigated the issue and developed the solution.
