Move file to path on different mountpoint does not work

[k3b]

I cannot move from /mnt/sdcard0/.... to /mnt/sdcard1/....
Current workaround: copy + delete

Still does not work due to file permissions introduced in android-4.4.

Maybe you can have a look how ghost commander (also in f-droid https://sourceforge.net/p/ghostcommander/code/HEAD/tree/) is copying files to sdcard using "storage access framework".

thanks for the info.

Since i currently have only android-4.2 and android-4.4 physical devices and therefore no way to test this in real life, this ticket has low priority for me. May be somebody else can fix this. merge requests are welcome

This is a really awful issue with Android 6, and many people are angry with google for that. My hope was that CM would find a solution for it - but they did not (yet).

What about upgrading one of your devices to CM13 or so? - The doze mode really is a good thing, I can say...
