OMV SMB, I can connect to smb android phone only when its language is English

  • Hi

    I installed omv 5 on raspi 4. I have a 2 TB one disk. I created file system, shared folders.

    There are 3 users.

    1. Pi user system user

    2. dibekshome sambashare and users have authorization.

    3. Sinan has all the powers


    1.shared folder open to users only for backup

    2. Shared folder 'name=android' users only (trial/test folder)

    3.Shared folder 'name=Public' open to everyone


    As a user, I can do everything on Windows 10.


    But I can only log in anonymously and use the public folder from the file manager of my xiaomi note 9 Pro android 10 phone.

    Although I enter username and password, I cannot see other folders and cannot access samba.


    Although I have used many android applications, I could not solve the problem.


    I created it now to try the Android folder. I created it from the shared folders page and gave read and write authorization to Sinan user via privileges and acl.

    But still I couldn't fix the problem.


    I'll be happy if you can help me.

    Thanks.:love:

  • hi.

    I made the language option of the phone in English to add an error screen display. and the problem was resolved.8|

    I don't understand why language was a problem. Now I will try to see if I can do it in Turkish and enter.?(

  • I am facing an absurd problem. When I change the language of the phone to Turkish, I cannot connect with the server address-username and password. the language of the omv interface was english. I did Turkish because maybe it should be the same language, but it didn't happen. could there be a solution from the omv settings? That's why I don't want to use my phone in a different language.

    Changed the title of the thread from “I cannot access private folders on Android” to “OMV SMB, I can connect to smb android phone only when its language is English”.
  • Hi. I tried it from the Huawei p smart 2019 file manager. When the device language is English, I can access all the folders shared over samba with the username and password. but when the device language is Turkish, samba cannot be entered. I tried it on 3 different devices, the problem is the same. i think it's caused by omv. how can i solve it. I installed an omv on raspian buster life. I made the time and region options as Europe Istanbul from the OMV interface. I did not make any settings other than that. I did not use any special characters or Turkish characters in shared folders and users. can you please help. OMV ready files copied but I am not using them over the phone.

  • Hello again,

    I think I am writing it myself, I answer it myself. :S


    I entered the location settings of the system. En_US utf8 did not work tr_TR utf8 did not work.


    The current system location status.


    language Turkish

    region europe

    city Istanbul


    root @ raspberrypi: / # locale

    LANG = en_TR.UTF-8

    LANGUAGE =

    LC_CTYPE = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_NUMERIC = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_TIME = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_COLLATE = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_MONETARY = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_MESSAGES = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_PAPER = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_NAME = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_ADDRESS = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_TELEPHONE = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_MEASUREMENT = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_IDENTIFICATION = "C.UTF-8"

    LC_ALL = C.UTF-8


    or


    root@raspberrypi:/# localectl status

    System Locale: LANG=tr_TR.UTF-8

    VC Keymap: n/a

    X11 Layout: gb

    X11 Model: pc105


    When the device language of the phone is Turkish, I cannot log in samba with the username and password.

    When I connect anonymously I can only see public.


    I did not use Turkish characters in any of the folder, file path, user name, password.


    I could not solve the problem somehow ???;(

  • Hello,

    I have the same problem, I can access Samba from Windows 10 but not from Android smartphone. On smartphone the language is English. How did you solve it?


    Thanks

  • I am in the same network, on WiFi. On smartphone I am using File Manager or ES Explorer. The funny thing is that with the same apps I can access the shared thumdrive from my router (router has a USB port). But with OMV I can only accomplish this from a Windows machine, not from Android phone.

  • For Samba, having no access on Android might be caused by Workgroup, right ?

    With regard to NFS, I found a thread where suggested solution to have Android access is adding following extra options for NFS shares: no_subtree_check,sync,all_squash,anonuid=1001,anongid=1001. But still, it does not work for me. :(

  • I was looking at NFS as an alternative for Samba.

    Installing Cx File Explorer did the trick. Now I am able to browse Samba. Thank you for the tip.

    Samba, I meant SMB

    Samba is an SMB or CIFS server. So, same thing.
