Due to the restrictions imposed by Android 11 and newer versions, apps can only see their own folders, not those of other apps. To resolve that problem, an external app called “XFolder File Manager” or “File Manager” (depending on the Android version) can be installed from the Play Store for file transfer. *You will be prompted with several file/folder permissions as listed below on the first start of the app. Please allow and give all file access permissions.
- “Storage Permission Required”
- “Allow access to all files”
- “Permission of Android folder”
- Depending on the Android version, other permissions may be needed to access the USB storage or a specific subfolder.
Procedure to transfer files from one folder to another:
** For Series 3, make sure the switch is set to “Use USB” on the side of the system. Otherwise, the USB will not be recognized.
- Navigate to the folder (or USB drive storage) where the file(s) you want to transfer are located.
- Note: All data files for the StellarNet Apps, except StellarRAD-Pro software versions 3.5.5 and above, are in: Internal storage > Android > data > us.stellarnet.”app name” > files.
- For example, the StellarRAD Pro app folder is located in: Internal storage > Android > data > us.stellarnet.stellarradpro > files
- Note: For StellarRAD-Pro software versions 3.5.5 and above, the file path is: Internal storage -> Documents -> “app name”
- For example, the StellarRAD Pro app folder is located in: Internal storage > Documents> StellarRAD Pro
- For example, the StellarRAD Pro app folder is located in: Internal storage > Documents> StellarRAD Pro
- Note: All data files for the StellarNet Apps, except StellarRAD-Pro software versions 3.5.5 and above, are in: Internal storage > Android > data > us.stellarnet.”app name” > files.
- Hold and select the file(s) that you want to transfer out.
- On the button panel, select “Copy to” to copy the selected file(s) and a popup will show up and ask you if you want to paste the file(s) to “Internal storage” or “USB device”.
a. Select “USB device” if transferring the file(s) from app folder to USB device.
b. Select “Internal storage” if transferring the file(s) from USB device to app folder.
- Navigate to the folder (or USB drive storage) that you want to transfer the file(s) to.
- On the bottom panel, select “Paste“.
Additional File(s)/Folder Handling
Hold down the file/folder for additional operations, including file renaming, zip file, delete, share, and duplicate file, etc.
