Unable to access /storage/emulated/0/Android/data folder #266

Hi,

I can no longer access /storage/emulated/0/Android/data folder after upgrading to Android 11.

I've tried changing the permissions as per described, but it's still not working.

The FTP client returns an error:

Error:  Unable to open .: permission denied
Error:  Failed to retrieve directory listing

Other ways of mounting doesn't work as well...

Edit: unrooted device.

That path is treated as specially critical by Android. It contains private directories of all apps. It might be that the system blocks access to that path even when an app got full permission. You can access the private directory of this app through this app when you use full absolute path:

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.primftpd
