Selecting a file in the file browser
I'm trying to get a file path with startActivityForResult and ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT.
The file browser opens. When I select a file, the file browser closes, but the universal menu is still open. In my code onActivityResult is never called.
Any idea why this is not working on the Quest 2? I already tried with enabling the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. And I also tried ACTION_GET_CONTENT instead of ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT.
@Override
public void onCreate( Bundle savedInstanceState ) {
...
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
intent.setType("*/*");
startActivityForResult( intent, PICK_FILE_CODE );
}
@Override
public void onActivityResult( int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data ) {
// never gets called
}

Having a very similar issue which is affecting a plugin I am using, as discussed in this other thread:

Out of curiosity, and desperation 😥 did you figure out a solution to your issue?
