Same here. Big difference between old access to ext SD card and private section of SD card.
And the start time of Locus 4, even with this very latest version still takes minutes. (And no, it's not 208 vector maps ...)

Hallo Wolfgang,
In den Samsungs sind DEV-Optionen an aber USB Debugging aus.
Ich würde x-plore mal deinstallieren und neu installieren und genau aufpassen was A11 für Fragen stellt zum Zulassen der Zugriffe.
Mit dem uralten Ansdroid System Info konnte ich sehen, dass x-plore und TC die Permission MANAGE EXTERNAL STORAGE haben. Gibt sicher noch andere Tools mit denen man die Detail Permissions sehen kann jenseits der weichgespülten Zugriffsgruppen auf UI Ebene.
Was den PC betrifft: ich habe schon vergessen MTP zu setzen oder die Android Security Frage ignoriert nach dem Einstecken.
Schöne Grüße
Michael
PS: LG und Huawei sind was PC connect betrifft eine Katastrophe, aber auch meine früheren Notes haben immer gut funktioniert.

Es ist überfällig, dass sich die Geo-App-Anbieter massiv mit Goggle auseinandersetzen und die MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE Permission einfordern.
Aber die ducken sich alle weg. Bei OSMand tanzt der Bär noch wilder als hier.
Es ist ein Trauerspiel.

Bei mir können x-plore, Total Commander und Solid Explorer auf der INT SD alles machen, überall.
Bei der EXT SD überall lesen, aber keine Dateien /Android/data/... schreiben; folder kreieren sehr wohl.
Google ist also nicht nur bescheuert, sondern auch schlampig in der Umsetzung.
Das 2. Trauerspiel.

PC-USB-Samsung Android 11 (S10, Tab S6 light) klappt bei mir auf jegliche Position, INT und EXT.

Android 9 - good subject.
Now, with the latest Locus updates (both, LM4 and LMP) the startup takes minutes, too. Not only in the screwed-by-Google Android 11.
What devastating change has happened inside Locus for the older Android versions, too?

I have not tried a migration with totally different root level map folders in place.

Something like /ExtSD/OAM or /IntSD/World, outside /Locus.
Will Locus migrate them all? Automatically?

Somebody has experience?

For sure @Menion can tell :-)

Of course, just thinking about newbies or people being unaware, it's after all a setting that you usually set and forget...

True.

Same global map thing in my migration. But easy fix to set it right manually.

Even on the migrated Tablet the SRTMs are in their original place. EXT SD, but not in the private structure,
Menion might be able to tell pot. difference in performance.

@michaelbechtold
you lost some maps or how should I understand your post?

That was a happy fun message, documenting success. They were gone from the old location /1st line) and ended up at the target (2nd) sentence.

Sorry for the confusion.

Summarizing the experience and discussions from the last weeks:
- the current support for SRTM, mapsVector, maps for both, INT and EXT SD private space is powerful enough to help all use cases, i.e. map storage needs, capacities etc. - well done! A big THANK YOU!
- the backup to ANY folder, even outside private space is great - although I do not understand how you could escape the Android 11+/API 30 limitations. Well, these are not files with need for random access (like DBs and maps); maybe that helped. Will it survive Google "fixes" (below the level of yet another storage model) ?
- the GPX export to the backup location would be really nice
- guiding the community of users who are not able to help themselves to make the right choices is the gap I see
Fingers crossed ...
Cheers
Michael

Re. 4min initializing time: I still believe that Locus needlessly analyzes all storage, even after migration.
Simplest way to check: just put a message into the start of this analysis that displays in that progress window.

Re. mapsVector on INT:
on my Tab device I first migrated to internal, with a number of subfolders in mapsVector.
Then I moved the mapsVector from INT to EXT private folder. And downloaded some stuff. But there is still stuff left on INT. No harm to me, though.

I think with this function only writing is allowed but not reading.
So it is only usable for backup.

Then exports can go there easily, too :-))) If Menion allows (would be an easy switch: option to combine exports with backup folder - done).
Imagine: you have a new track of 500K and back up 1 GB - instantly  to be safe. Cloud (Locus Gold or other) in the forests ?
#464
@Menion: after rereading carefully I understood that the backup folder can be outside of the private Android/data realms.
I tried and it worked.
From your earlier explanations I do not understand why such would work. And why not for all the other needs.
Can you pls enlighten me?
TXs and cheers
Michael

PS: copying FOLDERS to ext. SD even works when they come from int. SD.
Once they have files inside, those fail, but the folder hierarchy is copied.

Another screw up on Google's part. Michal (from x-plore) should give them the whips.
