Thanks Dianne.
That was it. It worked as soon as I changed
<uses-permission-group android:name="android.permission-
group.STORAGE" />
to
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
I had neither in the old code. Probably a tightening of specs in
2.1. I do wonder what the permission group does. I thought that I
saw that in some old post and used it. Seems like the correct one
since I assumed it would allow me to read/write/rename/delete files on
the external storage.
Another related question is that the Vibrant has 16 GB as "internal"
storage. But that's where the /sdcard directory is. There is also
another replaceable 2GB MicroSD slot. If I want to write to that
drive, how do I access it and does Android consider that as external
storage as well?
