When I insert SD card in my android device, /sdcard directory has permissions: d---rwxr-x with “system” as owner.
d---rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 2008-08-23 13:17 sdcard Here, the owner is system and doesn't have any permissions. When I tried to write a file from android application with "system" as user, it fails to write as "system" doesn't have any permission. The application needs to be with "system" user. Is there any solution to this problem? Can we change the permission of the /sdcard directory? I have added "WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" permission in my manifest file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
