"Can't find System Files app"
Closed this issue · 20 comments
I'm getting a toast saying that the app isn't able to detect the android file manager.
But I'm pretty sure this is a bug because I checked with a package manager, and com.google.android.documentsui (The system file app) is actually there on my phone.
• Samsung phone, OneUI 4.0
• Android 12
• Anemo version 2.1 from Izzyondroid
Hi, could you please run the following adb command and upload the output here? It seems like Samsung devices need special handling since it's the second time I've seen this reported for Samsung devices.
The adb command I need the output of is:
adb shell "dumpsys package | grep documentsui"
I'm getting the same toast on Pixel 6 Pro, Android 12L beta 3, with the IzzyOnDroid build.

For some reason the error is suddenly gone now. The documents UI is opening. I'm not sure why.
Edit :
Tested with a re-install (uninstall-install).
The "Can't find system file app" toast got displayed.
But then I cleared app data, and it works.

However now I'm facing a different problem. The lock-unlock quick setting tile isn't working..
Screen_Recording_20220320-141522_GitHub.mp4
The password creation window isn't coming.
Sorry this isn't related to the original issue, I think I'll create a separate one for this.

This seems weird, I can't think of a reason why this would happen... The Files system app Anemo expects is available on both devices that sent the logs. Are you on Android 12 as well?
The password creation window isn't coming.
If you don't have a password set no dialog will be shown. You can set a password on the configuration UI

Yeah, I'm on Android 12

Um, where do I find this configuration UI?
Actually in version 2.0 of Anemo the Set Password window was coming up when you click on the qs tile (for the first time).
Yeah, I'm on Android 12
Ok, then I'll have to investigate on a non-emulator Android 12 device, thanks for the information
Um, where do I find this configuration UI? Actually in version 2.0 of Anemo the Set Password window was coming up when you click on the qs tile (for the first time).
Either from the popup shortcut on the app icon long press or in Settings -> Apps -> Anemo -> More settings in the app. It's a new UI for the 2.1 version and it allows more options such as locking without a password

Overnight the documentsui issue went away for me too. I didn't reboot and had already tried killing and reopening the Files app. There are some other UX quirks, but I'll file separate issues for those if I can reproduce. Interesting app @2bllw8, thanks for publishing it.
Yeah, I'm on Android 12
Ok, then I'll have to investigate on a non-emulator Android 12 device, thanks for the information
Yeah, no problem. I'm personally fed up with the current app I'm using for encrypting storage so I really needed an alternative. Thanks for creating this app.

Working fine now, 👍.
Edit: just want to mention that the More settings in app info wasn't actually there. Popup is working.
Edit 2: The more settings is actually coming as inapp notification settings😅

Samsung probably changed that string from stock android...
Overnight the documentsui issue went away for me too
I'm both happy and puzzled about the issue mysteriously disappearing for both of you...
In any case, I have improved the code for finding the System Files app, when the next version comes it should be more better.
Let me know if you run into this issue again. If you have different things to report, please make a new issue here on GitHub
I have finally found the issue by testing on an Android 11 device, I will release a new version with a fix during this week.
Re-opening the issue until the next version is released
Version 2.1.1 includes a fix for this issue.
Tested 2.1.1, working now👍
The toast still comes though

Miui Sr 22.5.22
I can't find any information about this "miui sr" on the internet, but the error
ContentService: Neither user 10054 nor current process has android.permission.CACHE_CONTENT
makes it look like the rom you're running is using a modified system files application, since that permission is supposed to be declared in com.android.documentsui
Please test again on stock miui, and if that still happens make a new issue
I find the problem it just the module for mixplorer that installed as
system and the add ons on it cause the system to have error i guess but i
still got the cannot find the system
Personally I don't think that has anything to do with mixplorer. You're using a custom rom, and if its based on miui then it's more of a mod. Either ask the devs behind the rom to fix it, or switch to stock.

This is definitely related to MiXplorer ... If MiX is installed as Magisk module or has been converted to priv-app — this causes DocumentsUI crashes ... Try revert MiXplorer (un-systemize) — and the android-File-App will work again
I had the same issue. Finally, I found the problem related to Microsoft Intune Company Portal. It works after uninstalling Company Portal. It creates the second files app, somehow caused by a crash
