Apps don't have SD permissions - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have installed a custom rom crdroid nougat ROMs. So far it makes my tablet run like a Ferrari. I do have a small issue with some of the apps not allowing access to the SD.
The app in question is Wifi file transfer and scviewer. I can't have read or write permission thought those apps.
Do I need to do something about for it to work?
Look forward to your response.

Manage Apps and Storage

I wanted to ask how people manage their storage on their A101 efficiently. I have noticed that my system storage fills up as I install new apps and I have to manually move each to internal storage to keep the A101 running smoothly. Some apps cant be moved it seems.
Is there someway of getting apps to automatically install to internal storage to make life a little easier?
If you have root (Archangel is fine) you can use Move2SD Enabler. It is available on the market. Read instructions from the link below

as you can't move apps with widgets or system apps, as they won't work properly. It has saved me lots of space on my A70.

Thanks Darren. I haven't gone down the Root path yet. Is there an app you can use without root that will do the job?
Try App 2 SD from the market
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd&feature=search_result
You can only move apps which android allows to be moved with this, but it will tell you if you can move an app when you install new ones.

Thanks Darren. I'll give that a go until Im brave enough to Root my Archos
Loaded App 2 SD.
Thought it was really good. Made life much easier.
However its highlighted a problem with my storage. I have posted the problem in another thread that I started a while ago here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13760143#post13760143
Perhaps you have some thoughts on it?

SD Card access

Hi All,
I've just updated to MM and everything is running perfectly with root. What a difference in performance!
I have always been able to save stuff into SD card regardless of app using SDFIX patch. (It was meant for Kitkat but also worked on Lollipop)
Is there a fix for this? I want all apps to have access to SD Card..
Or is there a way to create a folder on the SD card for full access? I'm quite confused using these options as i've always applied the SDFix patch
Many thanks
Have you found a solution? I went to edit the permissions and didn't even see the external storage permission in the file, so I'm not sure it's as simple as it used to be.

Nope, still don't know how, i'm just using workarounds for all my applications that require it at the moment. Feels backwards as I use my SDcard a lot since upgrading to MM, but worth it for my phone not lagging anymore!
I do love the upgrade a lot!

I can't Access my internal storage at all

I am currently using Oneplus one with which i am facing issues which i think have to deal with storage permissions.
Issues i am dealing with
I can't take any screenshots it says "can't save screenshot due to limited storage"
I can't take any photos it says "insert your sd card before using camera"
I can't Download apps like Chrome or anything like that
I can't download images from web
I can't even move files from my pc even though it detects it
I can't Move any of my files in my phone It says "Operation Failed"
Actually, i installed resurrection remix rom and installed gapps later discovered that my camera and downloading doesn't work.
My device is not rooted (i don't want to) and has TWRP recovery installed. and has my both rom and gapps in the internal storage which i can only access through TWRP. I don't have any important files on that phone so, i am good to delete them. But i only want a Nougat Clean install with proper functioning of storage. i tried so much but it doesn't work at all.
Please help me, this one's so horrible.:crying::crying::crying:

Hello!
Try to see if the information here help you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
Post back either back here or at the thread provided if you encounter difficulties.
Thanks, but as i have said earlier it doesn't allow me to download files in internal storage even though i have nearly 50 gb free. and i can't transfer files through my cable to phone. Now, that i have completely deleted everything i will figure out something to do with this. Anyway thanks,
Mohan

Updating second space in custom/stock MIUI rom

I have installed multipro global 8.2.5 as my daily driver rom. It is rooted with xposed and all the other bells and tinkers.
Now, I was fiddling with the settings when I thought of trying out the second space option. I was surprised to find that it actually works as a second device, because it was installed afresh with the shared rooted applications ceasing to function in it.
Given this is my only device, I was in two minds to whether install my work email on it or not and lose out on some really useful root-dependent apps - arise mod, xposed, to name a few. This second space seems to be the perfect answer to my problem.
However, the only challenge that I could forsee in using this setup was when the rom will have to be updated. Will it delete the workspace when I choose to upgrade? And in case I'm able to simply flash and upgrade through TWRP, will I be able to flash supersu and root just one space and leave the other? How will the second space be treated in this case?
Can anyone share their experience with second space and how does it work? even if is not pertaining to a custom rom.

Excellent questions. I face the same issues. Did anyone ever answer?
+1 here to revive this thread. I am using MI Pad 4 Plus which doesnt have MIUI Second Space included in its stock firmware. If anyone know how to add this feature (perhaps flash something?) to clover please let me know. thanks
How to root my device

Question Move apps to SD card with ROOT

Hello, is there a method to move apps to the SD with root? I know samsung let you move some apps to the SD but this option seems broken since the One UI 4.1 update.
The best apps are lucky patcher and sd maid

Hi, again Link2Sd but that seems to break system sometimes.
Here is something you can try goto A11 build move apps to SD then update, I guess it should probably or they removed that feature for good cuz that might had bugs to resolve on newer Android.

Yeah, I already do that, I'm currently on One UI 3. I really hope One UI 5 fix this issue.
O don't think its an issue they might be trying to optimise device by making no apps on SD as after boot device lags for few seconds like 30. ^_^
