Folders and files I create via `adb shell` or USB-connection are given 775 permissions like this: drwxrwx--x 2 root sdcard_rw 32768 2020-08-08 20:49 brltty and -rwxrwx--x 1 root sdcard_rw 11641 2020-08-08 17:27 nl.ttb Looking around my Android filesystem like this, I found that on my device, '/sdcard' is a symbolic link to the device's primary storage: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 1970-01-01 01:00 sdcard -> /storage/self/primary I thus put the 'brltty' folder with the 'nl.ttb'-file in the phone's primary storage root. And behold: it worked! >> Can I check whether BrlTTY actually reads the .ttb-file? > Yes, if you're able to get the device's log.

BrlTTY told me about it when viewing the log. For those interested: I used `adb logcat -d > my-log.txt` to acquire the complete Android system log from my device. I then filtered to see only brltty's messages and voilá. Note: my device is not rooted. Thank you very much, issue solved and learned a lot.
