How to Enable Write Permission on External SD card [Root](Lollipop, Marshmallow)

Hello friends.
With the beginning of android 5.1 or 4.4, android restricts the permission for apps to write on your extSD. So, in this tutorial I will show you how to enable it. But for this, your android device must be rooted.




Don't know how to root your device, See

How to Root any Android.

After getting your android rooted, download and install ES File Explorer or Root Explorer.

If you are using ES File Explorer:-

  1.   then open the app
  2. go to the up left menu 
  3. scroll down and enable the root explorer option.
  4. grant permission from your superuser app.
  5. now go to local on the same left menu.
  6. go to Device or it will show you "\" icon.
  7. move to "system" folder
  8. ove to "etc" folder
  9. move to "permission" folder
  10. open the platfrom.xlm file using ES Note Editor.
  11. find the line which says                                                                                                           <permission name=”android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE” > and add one new line:    <group gid=”media_rw” />
  12. and    

<permission name=”android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE” >

<group gid=”sdcard_rw” />

<group gid=”media_rw” />
                                                      


  1. press back and save the file.
  2. now restart your android.
  3. done.
  4. it should look like above.
If you are using Root Explorer then start from step 6.
