I'm trying to download a file to directory that can vary based on whichever directory the user chooses. I store the current directory in a file object and now attempting to download the file. The file downloads, but it doesn't download the specified directory. So, what can I do to get the file in the directory selected.
Just using that to retrieve that name of the file. Its in the phone not the sd card. Not sure why? Which is what I using to the get the initial directory.
When I was downloading the file though instead of going to the actual downloads folder it would go to, or create, the downloads folder in the emulated folder in the storage folder. To resolve this I found the index of the zero in the path, added 1, and got the substring using that. After that it worked. Also I had to do this in another method where I navigate through the directory.
As a parameter I pass in the file and then within the method I get the substring. Not sure why it does this. If anyone could explain this it would be greatly appreciated. Does root. I still had this issue on Android 7. In my case, the file would not show up until I restart the device. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.
