Hi,
since the update to kitkat reading/writing from/to ext. sd doesnt work.
Sometimes the r/w attempts even lead to app crash.

Due to some infos the reason is a change of the permissioning concept/functionality which was not or bad communicated by google.

Is the issue already known ?

Thanks for your attention.

Android in version 4.4 reduced access rights to SD card.

Use application SDFix. This will solve your problem. Unfortunately you must root your device before applying SDFix
