I got error 802

[AI_M0]

Hello !

I'm making a recorder on AI2, but when I start my app on my phone I got an error.
The error message :

I think the problem is the space I put in red, but I don't know how to solve the problem.
Hope someone can help me, thanks you for your time.

Here is the code :

Sound recorder error_802

There is a bug with regard to spaces in file paths. In your case (and most cases at the moment) it is the space between My and Documents in your file path. There are some methods to work around this, one of them is to set the name and path of your savedRecording to your ASD

Sound Recorder Error 802 and Error 908 Permissions issue still persists

I have read a number of threads that appear to offer solutions to the permissions errors associated with trying to save sound files. I am following them but unfortunately I am still not able to get an app to save a recording without crashing. 802 error for .aia files and 908 error for .apk files.

Saving a file with a space in the name

Btw, this seems to affect all components that can save something, e.g. also the → SoundRecorder. If the storage path is not set manually (without spaces), you will get this error: [grafik] @ewpatton

I think the problem is the space I put in red, but I don't know how to solve the problem.

Yes, it is the problem with the space. The error occurs in the new release of MIT App Inventor.

You will have to wait until @ewpatton fixes the error.

No, you can set your own path:

Thanks for your help. But I still can't find those blocks, even though I have applied extension on my appinventor. Where can I find them?..

[dora_paz]

Once extension imported, in designer view drag and drop it inside mockup phone. After that go to blocks section and
