Work around DocumentFile bug happening with cloud-based DocumentsProviders
These might return outdated or now content when queried,
then check their cloud storage and report back with up-to-date content.
We now detect this (when looking for backups on newly setup storage)
and wait until the content has been loaded before acting on the
response.

This is affecting and was tested with NextCloud.

Seedvault

Build Status

A backup application for the Android Open Source Project.

Features

  • Backup application data to a flash drive.
  • Restore application data from a flash drive.
  • User-friendly encryption using a mnemonic phrase (BIP39).
  • Automatic daily backups that run in the background.

Getting Started

  • Check out the wiki for information on building the application with AOSP.

What makes this different?

This application is compiled with the operating system and does not require a rooted device for use. It uses the same internal APIs as adb backup and requires a minimal number of permissions to achieve this.

Permissions

  • android.permission.BACKUP to back up application data.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS to retrieve the available storage roots.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_USB to access the serial number of USB mass storage devices.
  • android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to change system backup settings.
