@mario would you have an idea why their android is telling them their instance would be in maintenance mode and cant connect to their external storage?
No idea really. I thought that there are issues with external storage folders as-in the Android client isn’t supporting them, while I am not sure since I don’t know much about the external folders support in general. Hope Tobias does.
i’ve set-up an external storage with another cloudservice (via webDAV - and it works like a charm)… so which external storages wouldn’t work with android-app so far, exactly? smb only?
but well i think both issues are the solution for this thread here.
i’m sorry to hear about your problems…
the solution is: there are gitub-issues filed, devs do know about the problem and are working in it.
which means: there’s nothing more that we could do HERE in this forum about it. that’s the pityful truth. and so i marked it “solved”. it’s no good solution, though - as i know.
if you don’t wanna wait for the issues to get solved their common way… try buying support from nextcloud, inc. i bet there are special offers for educational clients.
Like @JimmyKater mentioned there are the following reported issues:
and
Both have never gotten any feedback by the original reporter when the devs asked for a test account so this is likely not going to be fixed since it would need to be reproduced first.
So if you are willing to support the devs e.g. with a test account then I am sure this will and can be fixed
