Comment (by LukasThyWalls):

 I added a logcat (Created with Logs, filtered with keyword "ScummVM"),
 which i start ScummVM, went to the options screen to choose a new saves
 path, get the error and close. The point is i don't see anything useful
 for the moment when i pick the directory, but it's a start.

 The directory i want to choose is
 ''/storage/9016-4EF8/Juegos/ScummVM/Saves/'' (Juegos is Games in spanish).
 I tried every directory down (ScummvM, Juegos, and sdCard root) and
 anything is bringing the system picker. I also used a ''Download''
 directory and a ''Musica'' ("Music") directory used by other app that SAF
 worked (SyncMe Wireless).

 I tried to clear the storage permission to ScummVM in the permissions
 manager, but when i start it again ask to take it again and nothing more,
 anything has changed.

 Don't worry, i complete understand the topic and that point of view. I
 didn't report that earlier because i want to see if that API or way-to-
 access-the-SD or whatever, settles down and  it's the way to go and there
 aren't more changes near.
 However, i didn't know it was fixed some time ago and i didn't notice
 earlier because it doesn't worked for me.


 About the other "issue", don't worry, as i said i only point that out
 because is related, but it's ok like it is.
