hi

i use this code Line to get the Path for internal and external SD Card.
B4X:
Dim pfade() As String = Starter.rp.GetAllSafeDirsExternal("")
(Starter -> Starter Service
rp -> RunntimePermission, Public rp As RuntimePermissions)

Until now it works fine.

Now my Device (Motorola One... with Android 9) has a problem with the external SD Card (internal all o.k.) and the code line crash.
I do not understand why.

(java line 2544 points to the codeline above)

What changed when you started to get this error?

Did you update the OS on your phone?

Did you replace the SD card in your phone?

No Update.

No realy Change.
Now i see and test, with SD Card Inside, but unmount (press eject in the OS) i get the Error.
With mount RO (i think it's RO, i can see/open all, also the SQLite Database?, but no write posibble) the Error don't come.
