R rodmcm Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 11, 2019 #1 I am trying out the screenshot posted by agraham on a Levono 10" tablet https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/how-to-make-screenshots.10199/ and get the error java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/Test.png: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied) I am seeing the same error when trying out other screenshot offerings as well.. Can someone please advise. The permissions list includes WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE which I understood is automatically set by a call to File.DirRootExternal I also notice that all of the screen shot programs save to external storage. Is it possible to save to internal storage and then transfer to 'Gallery"

Your assumption is correct. It does add the permission to the manifest. However you still need to request it at runtime (it wouldn't have worked if the permission wasn't listed in the manifest).
