I am using SimpleSSHD and doing scp to transfer files from my computer to my Redmi phone.

My question is that after I have copied files to data/user/0/org.galexander.sshd/files, how do I access them, such as with a File Manager?

  • Don't copy files to /data/user/0/org.galexander.ssh but to external shared storage /sdcard. See similar question for Termux: https://android.stackexchange.com/a/218374/218526 – Irfan Latif Mar 12 '20 at 03:35
  • @dhvcc, are you ok with my edit of your question if so please roll back to that revision. It's more straight forward and will be better indexed. https://android.stackexchange.com/revisions/221967/3 – Evan Carroll Jan 16 '21 at 20:15
  • @EvanCarroll hello Evan, I felt that your edit went beyond than fixing the question so I rolled back and made minor fixes. If OP reverts to your version of edit, I would be fine with that. :-) – Firelord Jan 16 '21 at 20:20
  • @Firelord I know, I (respectfully) disagree with you. The op was clearly confused, having my answer chosen should greenlight me to clarify that. There is no reason to have a muddy question preserved on this site in perpetuity. We can do better for those searching for this, and for those that find it. – Evan Carroll Jan 17 '21 at 02:08

Don't ever copy files out of /sdcard/, for this task you should leave the files where they are. In order to copy files using SimpleSSHD, simply connect and copy: assuming you've left the default port of 2222 you can do this,

SCP File Transfer

host=192.168.1.228
scp -r "scp://root@${host}:2222//sdcard/DCIM/OpenCamera" .

RSYNC over SSH File Transfer

host=192.168.1.228
rsync --progress -ave 'ssh -p 2222' "root@${host}:/sdcard/DCIM/OpenCamera" .

On my phone the mountpoint of the external SD card is not /sdcard/, but /storage/XXXX-XXXX/.

e.g.:

HWVNS-H:/data/data/org.galexander.sshd/files $ ls -la /storage/C42F-10F5/
total 480
drwxrwx---   16 root     everybod     32768 Jan  1  1970 .
drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root           100 Feb 25 08:56 ..
drwxrwx---    5 root     everybod     32768 Dec 22  2020 Android
drwxrwx---    4 root     everybod     32768 Nov 22 16:36 DCIM

  • That looks like a path to an external SD card, not the internal storage. – Andrew T. Mar 24 '22 at 13:04
  • yes, i was talking about my external SD card path. edited above. My phone's android mounts my external SD card to above specified path. i thought /sdcard always means external SD card? – WolF Mar 25 '22 at 11:16
