Vivaldi Android cannot download any files
-
@jane-n no problems.
Download successful with the dialog enabled and disabled, to both internal and external locations. It worked before too, so just no regression here.
Galaxy S9+
Vivaldi 2.11.1813.20 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
Revision 66c520bd9cc76ad6d95bf16fa8eaa3c445599f5e
OS Android 10; SM-G965U1 Build/QP1A.190711.020Edit: sorry pasted wrong version, correct now, but definitely tested in beta, different tab stacks in UI confirmed it

@jane-n Hi, i'm still having problems.
Vivaldi 2.11.1813.20
OS Android 10; Mi 9 SE Build/QKQ1.190828.002No SD card.
It remains there and does not let you choose a different folder or save it.
The window title is "Scheda SD non trovata" (SD card not found).
-
Thank you for testing. Seems that there's still some work to be done. We'll keep you updated.

Hi guys!
I just wanted to clarify few things that i observed!- This SD Card not found is only occuring on Android 10 as i tested it on both Android 9 and 10.
- It's more of an android issue than chromium or vivaldi issue.
- Even after the recent update, the problem still persists on my device.
- The problem only occurs with Internal Storage and doesn't affect SD Card download.
- This problem has nothing to do with 'Ask where to save download' setting.
Device : Mi A3
Tested On : Android 10 and Android 9
Android 10 Roms on which i have tested : Official Stock Rom, Pixel Experience Plus, Lineage OS, Syberia OS, CrDroid.
Android 9 Roms on which i have tested : Official Stock Rom, MIUI 11 EU Rom.
I hope it gets fixed as early as possible because it is a major issue for downloads.
Thank You!

@abrarmohd520 dude, awesome first post! Welcome to Vivaldi. Just some relevant resources you might find helpful.
In the Help menu of Vivaldi there's an item that will take you directly to the Report a Bug page, but you can also bookmark that link to access it however you prefer.
Here's Vivaldi's official guidance on things to do when you have a bug to report in order to make it easier for them to identify the issue and get it fixed.
Vivaldi's bug tracker isn't public, but you can go here to request a status update as long as you know the bug number. You'll receive that in email for any bugs that you personally submit.
Finally, unrelated to bugs, there's a lot of useful info and people in the forum, but one thing in particular that is really unique to Vivaldi is the ability to create and install modifications. The Modifications category is where people post mods they've created, and discuss mods they'd like to have but need help to do it. There's almost certainly a few mods that anyone would find useful, and installing them isn't very difficult. Just be sure to read the pinned thread that explains how that's done.
Cheers,

I don't think it depends on Android, i'm using Edge to download because it works properly.

@skphere i felt it is an android issue because of all the fancy permission manager android 10 has brought in.
One has to give permission for both internal and sd card by navigating in files app to the desired location and tapping on allow access.
This doesn't happen with all apps but i found many in which this has to be done.
Now i feel vivaldi has to code in the route for this navigation to happen so that when we just give permission to access storage it can acess it.
It's my personal opinion btw, i might still be wrong. -
@jane-n It still has this issue on my phone (Xiaomi Mi 9, Android 10 QKQ1.190825.002).
