Puzzler Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 When I sync to a read-only secret on Android, it transfers files for a little while, and then stops transferring. From what I can tell, the read-only aspect is causing bittorrent sync to lock or otherwise eliminate write permissions for the folder, and then it gets confused and even the sync program can't write to the folder. Restarting the device causes it to start working again for a little while. I have also tried manually copying over the files ahead of time, and then marking it as read-only. Even though the files are already present, and all that needs to happen is indexing, this causes similar problems. Full write access secrets appear to be working. So, consider this a warning to others that read-only on Android doesn't seem to be ready for prime-time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
