Android 12This is on a Galaxy S10+ Android 12, UI version 4.1. This is not a corporate managed phone.
I have a self-signed CA cert that I created for my local services and want to install it on my phone. I've gone to settings -> biometrics & security -> other security settings -> install from phone storage -> CA certificate -> Install anyway (verify my identity) and then I'm left at a "select item" screen that says "No Files" regardless of my choices. My choices are limited to Internal Storage, SD Card, One Drive and Google Drive.
How do I browse to the cert on my phone? What extensions are valid? (I'm currently using .pem) Is there a way to change what file browser the settings app uses?

Android 12Hi all -
unfortunately the issue is caused by the Samsung My Files app when updated to v13.1.x
It is unable to detect the certificate file on the internal storage on the Select An Item screen so "No files" is reported and other directories cannot be navigated to.
If you "uninstall updates" for this My Files app, it works but this is counter intuitive as a solution to non-tech minded individuals that we deal with.
Samsung, please fix this urgently!!

Android 12I can also offer a more permanent solution by updating your Samsung My Files app to: v13.1.00.193 via Galaxy App Store or Play Store.
