I want to get content (images & videos) of user selected folder. Code to select the folder is:

val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE)
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION
                    or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PREFIX_URI_PERMISSION
                    or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
                    or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION
        )
startActivityForResult(intent, 1088)

And onActivityResult, I am persisting the permission(even I tested without restarting the device but it is not working):

override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
        if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
           if (requestCode == 1088) {
               val selectedDirUri = data!!.data

                grantUriPermission(packageName, selectedDirUri, (Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
                        or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION
                        or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION))

                val takeFlags = (data.flags
                        and (Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
                        or Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION))
                contentResolver.takePersistableUriPermission(selectedDirUri!!, takeFlags)
             }
        }
   }

Then I am using DocumentsContract.buildChildDocumentsUriUsingTree to list all the images from user selected directory URI.

Then  I try to copy the file using below code, but it is not working. Even I can not read the file:

val inputStream: InputStream? = context.contentResolver.openInputStream(sourceFileUri)

I am getting below error:

java.lang.SecurityException: com.android.externalstorage has no access to content://media/external _primary/file/1000008384 at android.os.Parcel.createException or Null(Parcel.java:2438) at 08 android.os.Parcel.createException(P arcel.java:2422) at android.os.Parcel.readException(Par cel.java:2405) at android.database.DatabaseUtils.rea dExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtil s.java:190) at android.database.DatabaseUtils.rea dException WithFileNotFoundExcepti on From Parcel(DatabaseUtils.java:15 3)

This is happening in Vivo, Oppo and specially in new Samsung phones (The device details in which I tested above code is mentioned below). I am really frustrated, I tried all possible solution but not able to find any solution till now.

I hope someone will give some highlights on this as millions of users are effecting due to this and all users are uninstalling my apps regularly due to this SAF changes and bugs.

So any problem in the code or manufacturer's modified android OS bug (If it is the case then this is really serious issue). This code is working fine in Pixel 4a device.

Device I am facing this issue is (There are plenty of devices but I have only one in which I can reproduce it):

Model: Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G, 8GB RAM, 128 GB Storage.
OS: Android 12
Google Play system update: 1 Oct 2022
Build number: SP1A.210812.016.G781BXXU4FVJ1

I have provided all possible details that I have and looking for any help or pin points to find out what is going wrong.
