Hi

I have recently installed the latest QGC 5.0 stable version on a Moto Neo 50 running Android 15, but I cannot share telemetry (\*.tlog) files. I tried several exploreres with root access, but no success.

I can share files at the same folder (android/data) of other apps (e.g Mission Planner), but not with QGC 5.0 stable.

Tks

Have you tried with Developer option activated? - It could be an Android security matter.

I’ve just successfully copied and moved .bin files from an Android 15 device.  
Haven’t tried any .tlog files.

But here is a thought; Maybe Android struggles with the 4 letter file type. Try changing file type to something like “log” and see if you can move it.

I’m using an Android 14 device and having the same problem.

I tried your idea, but unfortunately it didn’t work.
