Bug ID: 433033
Summary: Cannot send some files from SD card since Android 11
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Android
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: le.petit@web.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Since the phone was updated to Android 11, sharing / sending files to my linux
desktop no longer works. The specific file is (was) located under SD / Android
/ data / ... / ...gpx
When I try to share the GPX file from the app (OSMand+) and select KDE Connect
followed by my linux machine, I get the following error message (translated):
The file can not be send to Incomplete data.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Share a file via Android, which is located under SDcard / Android / data
2. Select KDE Connect
3. Select the receiver
OBSERVED RESULT
An error message shows up: Die Datei kann nicht an user@linuxmachine gesendet
werden. (The file can not be send to ...)
On the receiver machine the message is more verbose: Unvollständige Datei
erhalten von: Galaxy S10e: MyRoute.gpx (Received incomplete file from: Galaxy
S10e: MyRoute.gpx)
EXPECTED RESULT
Successful file transfer without any error message.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
The sender:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S10e / SM-G970F/DS
OS: Android 11 / One UI 3.0
KDE Connect: 1.16.0 installed via F-Droid
The receiver:
Betriebssystem: Gentoo Linux
KDE-Plasma-Version: 5.20.5
KDE-Frameworks-Version: 5.77.0
Qt-Version: 5.15.2
Kernel-Version: 5.4.80-gentoo-r1-x86_64
Art des Betriebssystems: 64-bit
Prozessoren: 4 × Intel® Core™ i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz
Speicher: 15,5 GiB Arbeitsspeicher
Grafikprozessor: Mesa DRI Intel® HD Graphics 620
kde-misc/kdeconnect 20.12.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It worked as expected in Android 10. I updated my system about a week ago.
After some research, I think, it is related to the new permission concept of
Android 11. Probably KDE connect needs to request a new permission? It's just a
guess. I recognized, that the app that writes the files (OSMAnd+) has the
permission "Speicher: Verwalten aller Dateien zugelassen" (Storage: all files
granted) whereass KDE connect has only the permission "Speicher: Zugriff nur
auf Mediendateien zugelassen" (Storage: Access to media files only)
