An Text Viewer Is Unable To Save Modified Text Files, When Opened From Anexplorer And A Couple Of Other Third Party File Managers.

Project Information

• Repository:

https://github.com/1hakr/AnExplorer

• Title: An text viewer bug

• Publisher (if applicable):

Expected behavior

An-text viewer is the text editor embedded in An explorer. I had expected to be able to succesfully save text files that I modified with An-text viewer

Actual behavior

After modifing a text file which was opened from an exlorer, trying to save the file produces a feedback "Unable To Save". This happens to be the same behavior with many other third party filemanager, the only exception from my test was Stock filemanager, the files were saved successfully when I used stock filemanager.

How to reproduce

• Download, Install and Run Anexplorer

• Grant required permissions

• Locate a text file (.txt) and opt to open the file by clicking once on it.

• This should provide a list of various text editors installed on user's device.

• Select An text viewer (which will only be labelled as Text Viewer, however it will carry the AnExplorer)

• Click on the area to edit the text.

• Add a word or two and try to save the file by click on a diskette icon located at the top right corner of the editor.

• You should find the bug here.

• Browser/App version: V3.8

• Operating system: Android v6.0 marshmallow.

• Device: Itel p12 (running only on internal memory)
