After the API 29 upgrade, screenshots do not work anymore on Android 10 or newer. I'm looking at adb logcat but there are no exceptions and AFAICT no messages. But I could be wrong about the latter. We do get a toast saying "Screenshot failed" so maybe that is triggered by application code in a failure path.

I tried the Screenshot functionality on 2.5.1 (Which is linked against API level 28) and there it works on the same Android 11 devices that I have for testing.

The root cause of this turned out to be storage changes in Android 10. A fix is in #5351
