Cannot compile/run VRCinema sample code

Honored Guest
Hi All,
I just installed Android Studio 3.6.1 / gradle 5.6.4, and the Oculus GO 1.3 SDK.  I can compile and run the VRcubeworld demo, but when I try to compile the VRCinema demo, I get a compilation error in OVR_MappedFile.cpp:
File = open(path, O_RDONLY, (mode_t)0440);
error: 'open' has superfluous mode bits; missing O_CREAT? [-Werror,-Wuser-defined-warnings]
if I change the code to:
File = open(path, O_RDONLY | O_CREAT, (mode_t)0440);
I can compile and deploy, but crashes on app startup on the Go:

Hello, I'd just like to note that I'm also experiencing this issue, I have not found a solution yet.

Hi there! I ran into something similar in my travels and it appears to be due to stricter warnings in ndk r21 for fopen. You have a couple of options, downgrade the NDK your app targets or disable the warnings (which could hide other issues) by settng the following in your .mk file that builds the OVRSDK:

LOCAL_CFLAGS += -Wno-error=user-defined-warnings

I had this same issue resolved it by indirectly entering the permission mode through a local variable like this.

int per = 0440;
File = open(path, O_RDONLY | O_CREAT, (mode_t)per);

another way to fix would be to set the mode to 0 but that would not be recommended.
