Thanks! While following your steps I get an error. In the application output it says; "Unable to start "pdapp.mediascanner"."

Using logcat I get:

I/ActivityManager(  712): START u0 {flg=0x10000000 cmp=pdapp.mediascanner/.MediaScanner} from uid 2000 on display 0
W/ActivityManager(  712): Permission Denial: starting Intent { flg=0x10000000 cmp=pdapp.mediascanner/.MediaScanner } from null (pid=21117, uid=2000) not exported from uid 10104
I/art     (21117): System.exit called, status: 1
I/AndroidRuntime(21117): VM exiting with result code 1.

And also this:

W/PackageManager( 1369): Failure retrieving resources for pdapp.mediascanner: Resource ID #0x0

I followed your steps to the point.

Please make sure that you set the permissions to read and write external storage. Furthermore check consitent naming of your package and class names.
Which android version ar you targeting? Do you have installed the android sdk?

Thanks!

I had forgotten permissions for reading externally.
Your solution works perfectly.

@Qojote Thank you and congratulations for giving all the details for solving this old and apparently common problem! Without the smallest details, this kind of things are never solved.
