Summary: On my Samsung Galaxy S5 mini (Android 6.0.1) browsing the sdcard is not possible because there is a hidden file .android_secure that is not readable by a normal user. For such a file File.exists() returns false while File.listFiles() does return it and SftpSubsystem.writeAttrs() throws an exception Test Plan: On a device where the SDCard cannot be browsed (I think its API 23 and up) install kdeconnect with this patch and verify that the SDCard can now be browsed successfully Reviewers: #kde_connect, albertvaka Reviewed By: #kde_connect, albertvaka Subscribers: albertvaka, nicolasfella, kdeconnect Tags: #kde_connect Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D17644

(Some) Features

All this without wires, over the already existing WiFi network, and using TLS encryption.
