Bug on WriteExternalStorage Permission - Not Working

[Taifun]

From the documentation

you need to use a USB cable and enable debugging on your device. Follow instruction HERE for enabling USB debug.

Yup. I did it. But maybe I did something wrong. I don’t believe it, but it’s possible. I will try again. Tnx

Hi Taifun,

You were correct (again). I had not enabled usb debugging.

Fixed that, I found error 908 in the log, and it started happening after the last kodular update.

I tried to fix it with the DeclareReadWrite.aix extension, but it didn’t work.

I read that google does not accept some of the proposed solutions.

I want to publish the app on the play store. Is there any temporary fix for this while the devs don’t fix the problem?

You dragged the extension into the working area?

Error 908: The permission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. only on android11

[Screenshot_1] Hello, this error 908 appears only on devices with android 11. When pressing the login button with google firebase, it asks for permission to access, even accepting it shows the error. I read other posts and saw something related to adding in the manifest, how do you do it?

Yes I did it. But error 908 still appears.

I did this too

How do the permissions in your manifest look like?

I don’t know how to see this.

I tried using the “apk editor studio” as Anke taught in How to customize the Manifest → example: Companion APK, but the following error always appears: Error unpacking APK.

That is, to fix the problem I always need to fix other things first.

This app worked fine. I needed to update it, and for that I even became Premium.

But I just can’t fix the problem on my own…

Well, this is another problem. Sorry for the rant.

Is there another way to check the manifest?

Also, this app is relatively new, and needs to be compiled in aab. But this is also another situation to resolve later…

[Taifun]

in post #8 of that thread it is explained what you can do in case you get an error

How to customize the Manifest → example: Companion APK

Taifun, I changed the Manifest as Anke taught, and now it works.

I Replaced line
uses-permission android:maxSdkVersion="29" android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/
with
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/ .

Now the question is: How to change the aab manifest??

[Anu10 (Anu)]

You don’t need to modify aab manifest Convert apk to aab now

Edit or Modify the AAB file

Edit or modify the aab file This process will convert the apk into aab file There is no way to edit or modify the file in aab because all file get encoded with protocol-buffers but we can edit the apk and modify it easily. So this process will convert modify apk into aab file

first download the apk from https://github.com/sensei-z/APK2AAB/raw/main/Android-Tool/APK2AAB.apk

This apk is developed by @Shreyaa and its very good. I used it personally.

Here is an video

Taifun, I changed the Manifest as Anke taught, and now it works.

I Replaced line uses-permission android:maxSdkVersion=“29” android:name=“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”/ with uses-permission android:name=“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”/ .

Now the question is: How to change the aab manifest??

Also there are 2 questions regarding this

1. Now its working fine in all android version also can you please share your permission blocks.

2. Also do you use that bodymindpower extension to declare permission in manifest?

@Yash_Agarwal

Now its working fine in all android version also can you please share your permission blocks.

@Yash_Agarwal

Yes, I do it

@Yash_Agarwal

I used apk2aab and was able to generate the aab file.

But I couldn’t install the package.

Do I need to use ZipSigner too?

In the video I didn’t understand what it’s for (I don’t understand this language).

If I need to use it, where can I find the package to install?

I couldn’t find it on the play store

Thanks in advance

[Yash_Agarwal]

@juansinclair

Do I need to use ZipSigner too?

Yes you have to install the android key in that aab.

Download key from Kodular - Preference- Export key

[juansinclair]

ok. Now i have the keystore exported from kodular.

do you have the zipsigner apk?

[Yash_Agarwal]

AABSigner.apk (1.1 MB)

Here is the apk

[juansinclair]

Tnx a lot, @Yash_Agarwal

[Rodrigo_Soto]

Hello everyone!

I tried to use APK2ABB but it doesn’t work with my Apk.

Do you know of any other option? I need to convert my Apk with its new manifest to Aab to upload my update to Googleplay.

Grateful
