Descrizione

My Nextcloud root directory is not writeable so the app fails to upload the contacts Backup. Please make the path for contacts Backup configurable!

I am running the latest Nextcloud 16.0.1.1 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The Nextcloud App is on 3.7.0 RC2 on Android Pie if that is important.

Examine the backup implementation in the Android app, likely in the ContactsBackup or CalendarBackup classes. Find where the backup file path is hardcoded (possibly in BackupUtils.java). Then, add a settings entry in the app's preferences (e.g., SettingsActivity.java) to allow user to choose a folder. Use the storage access framework or simple file picker. Ensure that the chosen folder is used during backup creation. Test on a device where root directory is not writable.
