Failure to open directory

gotnone opened this issue · comments

Far on Droid v 0.9.2 fails when attempting to navigate up a directory from /storage/emulated/0 with the dialog "Can't open selected directory".

The device is running Android 7.0 and has root provided by magisk v12.0. Other file managers are able to navigate to these directories when given root access by makisk's su on this device. Additionally, shell access to these directories is possible from adb shell and the jackpal terminal once su is requested.

The older version of Far on Droid 0.8.5.5 fails silently when attempting to access directories above /storage/emulated/0.

No relevant log entries appeared in the device logcat when filtered on "farmanager"

Is there a known issue with Nougat, or is it more likely that the magisk root is somehow failing to grant true su? My understanding is that magisk's su is based on phhusson's su which was successfully used with Far on Droid on this device when it had a Marshmallow rom.

Is there a way to get more detailed information about why the directory change call is failing?

I tried reinstalling 0.9.2 on my Nougat device. I have included a log file below. Of interest is the warning "W/PackageManager(3404): Unknown permission android.permission.ACCESS_SUPERUSER in package com.openfarmanager.android"

Is it possible there has been a change between Nougant and previous Android versions with regard to superuser access and related requests?

Thanks
