Syncthing cannot or are not allowed to browse internal storage on Android Marshmallow.
I fixed the problem by re-compiling Syncthing with Android 6.0 (API 23), but I am not sure if this is a problem that should be fixed here or at F-Droid.

Reproduce:
  1. Install and run Syncthing from F-Droid
  2. Press the + icon and add a new folder.
  3. Press "Directory" in "Create Folder"
  4. Now I am showed 4 dirs ("/storage/emulated", "/storage/emulated/0", "/storage/self", "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.nutomic.syncthingandroid/files" and "/storage/self"), but I cannot see or create other folders inside these dirs.

Syncthing version: 0.12.6
Syncthing-Android version: 0.7.5
Android Verison: 6.0.1
Device Model: GT-I9300 (Samsung Galaxy S3)
CyanogenMod version: 13.0-20151228-NIGHTLY-i9300

Did you give Syncthing explicit permission to access storage?
Under Apps -> Settings -> App Permissions?

Apart from the random crashes in idle mode, f-droid's syncthing works fine on CM13 on shamu.

Yes I did, Syncthing pop-up and asks for it.

Okay, If I force Syncthing to stop after granted it access to storage and then run it again, it works.
The program, may need to ask for access to the storage. After the access have been granted.

I have a similar problem where the syncthing binary won't start because of some permission error after the marshmallow upgrade (cm12.1 to cm13 on a Nexus5). I made sure CM and Android permissions are both granted and I rebooted several times.

@XDjackieXD if you rebooted several times and it still doesn't work you can rm /data/user/0/com.nutomic.syncthingandroid/files/index-v0.11.0.db/LOCK

@Zillode after deleteing the file and restarting syncthing (force closing it using the app settings) I get exactly the same error message and the file doesn't get created.
Could it be that the app/native executeable lost access to the folder for some reason after the Marshmallow upgrade?

Zillode commented Jan 14, 2016

@XDjackieXD: it's probably a different error if the file doesn't exist?

I just got a new phone with Android 6, and I didn't experience this issue.

Did you guys do anything special, like restore a backup of Syncthing?

@XDjackieXD
Copy link

Oh sorry... I forgot closing the issue...
The solution was to export the settimgs, reinstall the app and import them again.
No I did not do anything special during upgrade. I was just flashing a cm13 nightly over a cm12.1 nightly.

I see. I think problems are expected if you do a dirty flash to a new major version of Android.
