[BUG] Backup created, but where?

[Offerel]

I tried to backup the app settings, which seems to be successfully. However, there is no hint, where this file is saved. I cant find the file with the file explorer.

FastHub Version: 4.7.3
**Android Version: ** 10
Device Information:

• MANUFACTURER: Samsung
• BRAND: Samsung
• MODEL: Galaxy S9

I can't reproduce it; says the file location below the backup button for me.

Ahhh ok. Indeed, I can see the same path in the description. Must have overlooked this completely. If I backup the settings, it says also that process is successfully, but I couldn't find the backup. I miss the whole directory on my device.

[Offerel]

Why do you close this? The backup isn't created at the given path. The whole directory doesn't exist.

[doamatto]

Seems to still be just you then. I opened Amaze FM and selected by Internal Storage (which is identified by Android as /storage/emulated/0 and could navigate into the FastHub directory, where backup.json was stored.

Hmm maybe some special problem with how Samsung uses storage access under Android 10?

What makes me wonder is, that the toast message say, that the backup is created successfully. At least with Solid Explorer, I can also manually create Files and Folders at /storage/emulated/0.

[doamatto]

Possibly; have you tried using a different file explorer like Amaze or the My Files app (from Samsung) to navigate to that directory and see if it's empty?

[Offerel]

At least i tried the Samsung one. The directory FastHub doesnt exist on the device after i created a backup with FastHub. However i can create this directory manually and it stays there. But if i now create a backup with FastHub, the directory stays empty.

Maybe i have a similar problem with another app called NewPipe. andOTP/andOTP#490. All other apps seems to work as expected. I have no problems to create files/folders. If i take photos they are created in /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera as they should. I have no idea how i can test more things, again it makes me wonder that i get the toast message that the backup is created successfully. I have no skills in Android programming but at least in PHP i get only a success, when the save function returns success. Maybe its possible to get the real file path where the file is created. If i remember correctly, /storage/emulated/0 is only a symlink. If i have the real path, maybe i can check it with some adb coommand (if thats available).

I reckon its android 10 issue.

I'm currently on vacation and coming back home next week, I'll look into it and if I fix this then probably the download will work as well
