After updating to Android 6.0.1 i can't find the files on my sdcard programmatically.
The SD Card directory shows now "storage/9C33-6BBD/"
After this path I has my data.
How i can get them ?
System.getenv("SECONDARY_STORAGE");System.getenv("EXTERNAL_STORAGE")Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
Doesn't work
Before updating Androiud it works well.
Have a look at getExternalFilesDirs(). It will give two paths. The second one in on the sd card.

So I'm making an app that requests a file from the phone's storage (external storage - not external SD Card, the internal one). But the path is awkward when I select the file from Downloads: /document/[number here, for example, 4].
Does anyone know how to get the real path of that file? Because it exists on the Download folder, but I wanted it to when it's selected, I get the real path of it and not that weird path which actually doesn't even exist. This happens at least on Nougat (Android Studio emulator) and on KitKat (both the emulator and my phone). Any help is appreciated.
As pointed by Abhay Koradiya and Nandan Desai, the path was an Uri path, so I used this code to solve the problem and convert to normal path, given by Abhay Koradiya: http://technophilegeek.blogspot.com/2018/11/android-get-file-path-from-uri-real.html. Again, thank you both for the help!
I've tried a lot of method and I've read a lot of posts, without find a valid soluction.
Summing:
I try to use this https://github.com/18446744073709551615/android-file-chooser-dialog to choose a directory and use it. This code work perfectly with internal storage.
With this code: System.getenv("SECONDARY_STORAGE"), on my Asus TF201 with JellyBean and with Lollipop, I have /storage/sdcard1 and I can use this with previus code and it works.
Now, the problem.
I've tried with this (and other similar solution): How can I get external SD card path for Android 4.0+? but on LG G3 with Android 6.0 I've /mnt/media_rw/9014-4EF8 and doesn't work with previous code.
How can I obtain the external sd path? I need only to read in sd. Or can I use /mnt/media_rw/9014-4EF8?
I have an app I made on my old phone. It creates a folder called LocationTracker. When Im stepping through the code it says the folder exists. But I cant seem to browse to it when I connect my phone to the computer. I just checked my file explorer on my phone and i can browse to the folder there as well. According to that it is under the sd card, but i just cant see it on my PC.
Im rooting around in my file explorer on my phone. There appears to be 2 sd card folders. One is called sdcard1, and that seems to be my actual sd card. The other is called sd card. I think its an emulated one. I use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), i thought that returned the sd card if one was available. If that is the case why is it using the emulated folder instead of the actual sd card folder? How do I fix this?
From Android documentation:
In devices with multiple "external" storage directories, this directory represents the "primary" external storage that the user will interact with. Access to secondary storage is available through
The rest of the sentence is sadly missing. However the methods are Context.getExternalFilesDirs() and Context.getExternalMediaDirs().
Actually I am trying to create a SD Card space on my Android Emulator and I'm succeed into it. But the problem is that the folder of MyFile, is not available on Android Virtual device when i look for it on a click of a Apps option. And also not showing the space available when I look into the settings --> Storage.
But when i transferred one of Application into the sd card it shows the Total space and available space in sd card but still not able to found the folder of SD card memory.
How am I found it help me out please......
Thanks in Advance For any help or suggestion...............
Go to DDMS->File Explorer->mnt->sd card
Click on DDMS, select your Emulator from devices. From FileExplorer select mnt/sdcard. This is the path for the emulator's SDCard. But to look for installed application follow Riteeka's answer.
There is no folder named MyFile in emulator, and You can browse sdcard contents in FileExplorer. The path following sdcard is FileExplorer -> Data/Data/mnt/sdcard.
I think this might help you!!
while creating AVD what is the use of File: in SDcard generally we will choose size:
what is file:
This is option is for using an existing SD card file, if you have one. For example, you can create two emulators sharing an SD card image. Hope this helps.
This input requites the path of the file which is made by tool mksdcard which is used to create a blank FAT32 image to be used with the Android emulator. This file will be mounted in emulator as external media storage.
