Cannot Write to sdcard in Android emulator

Question

I have added this line in the AndroidManifest.xml:

How

Answer 1

I cleared the cache for whichever application I was using to try and share out the picture (Pixlr) and it was fine.

Answer 2

I notice that this problem can occur if you are using an Android 6.0 emulator, Android added new permission model for (Marshmallow).

Trick: If you are targeting version 22 or below, your application will request all permissions at install time just as it would on any device running an OS below Marshmallow

Answer 3

It might be more simple than that. I missed to configure the emulator so that it had a SD-card. Once I added a SD-card in the device, everything went well.

Answer 4

Ok So I have solved this. It was a problem I faced with mounting the sdcard and that android doesn't allow spaces in the path!

Here is a good procedure to follow (if eclipse is also used) : http://www.brighthub.com/mobile/google-android/articles/33240.aspx

NOTE: in case the path has a space in it, move the sdcard image file to somewhere else and then run the emulator command with the sdcard and everything should work fine!
