[BUG] Root file copy - incomplete files

Hello,
I'm long time user of TC for Android (and even longer of TC for Windows). Recently I found out that on Nexus 10 with KitKat (official build), I'm unable to copy files when root is required. It does copy them, but target is truncated, incomplete. Usually few last kilos are missing. It occurs always (or almost always). I tested it on SGS4 with 4.3 Google Play Edition ROM without any problems.

Example - copying from /data/data/com..../.Default.plist to /storage/emulated/0/Download.
Source file size 31.1k, target after copy 28.0k (28672 B)

Any logs or anything I could help with?

Thanks, Best regads,
A.

This is indeed a bug in KitKat: It does no longer flush the data to disk when the file is closed. It's necessary to flush the data manually.

Please try the latest beta version, it should fix the problem:
