I got paths for my application using getExternalFilesDirs api. After that for each file I am calling isExternalStorageRemovable(file_name) to check whether storage is removable or not. But it throws exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Failed to find storage device at _given_path_

What could be the possible reason for this. SD card is still inserted in device only.

What path are you using? Are you sure its correct? Post your code and the full stack trace. – Gabe Sechan Jul 25 '16 at 15:28
You better show your code than talking about it. – greenapps Jul 25 '16 at 17:26
