Before using the USB APIs, a runtime permission should be requested: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/usb/host#permission-d

On python-for-android, you can use:

from android.permissions import request_permissions, Permission
request_permissions([Permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE])

to request the required permissions during runtime.

See: https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android/blob/8ab7c950618ebc3bf4c2afddbc4a416b8bf325d1/doc/source/apis.rst#runtime-permissions for additional info.
