Dear Marco, 

i am a quite an expert on topodroid on all kind of machines. 

Now I came up with a problem while installing topodroid for a friend. 

He got a Samsung A7 tablet from 2021. 

which android version ?

I installed all kind of versions of topodroid on the tablet but get all the time the same problem. I updated software first on the tablet.started , restarted etc

After installing topodroid i get the message:

WRITE_FILE  is needed to run. Bye with a topodroid logo. See enclosed.

I cannot start up new survey. I can fill in the page for a new survey. But as soon as I push the button open or save new survey, it stops Topodroid.  I also cannot import a Zip file, as it gives the same problem. 

It looks like the program cannot find the mapfiles to write to. Or it cannot write at all. 

You got a solution??

Thx

Laurens

I got this same problem when I installedTopoDroid  for the first time on a device. It was version 6.3.37.

To fix it I had to uninstall it, delete the TDX folder and install version 6.3.20. At this moment I managed to create or import a topo.

After that I managed to update to 6.3.37 without further issues.
