The support library has been superseded by [AndroidX](/jetpack/androidx) which is part of [Jetpack](/jetpack). We recommend using the AndroidX libraries in all new projects. You should also consider [migrating](/jetpack/androidx/migrate) existing projects to AndroidX. To find the AndroidX class that maps to this deprecated class, see the AndroidX support library [class\n| mappings](/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings).\n\n\n`\npublic\n\nfinal\n\nclass\nEnvironmentCompat\n`\n\n\n`\n\nextends Object\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n|---|-----------------------------------------|\n| java.lang.Object ||\n| ↳ | android.support.v4.os.EnvironmentCompat |\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n*** ** * ** ***\n\nHelper for accessing features in [Environment](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html).\n\nSummary\n-------\n\n| ### Constants ||\n|----------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `String` | [MEDIA_UNKNOWN](/reference/android/support/v4/os/EnvironmentCompat#MEDIA_UNKNOWN) Unknown storage state, such as when a path isn't backed by known storage media. |\n\n| ### Public methods ||\n|------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| ` static String` | ` `[getStorageState](/reference/android/support/v4/os/EnvironmentCompat#getStorageState(java.io.File))`(File path) ` Returns the current state of the storage device that provides the given path. |\n\n| ### Inherited methods |\n|-----------------------|---|\n| From class ` java.lang.Object ` |-------------------|-------------------------------| | ` Object` | ` clone() ` | | ` boolean` | ` equals(Object arg0) ` | | ` void` | ` finalize() ` | | ` final Class\u003c?\u003e` | ` getClass() ` | | ` int` | ` hashCode() ` | | ` final void` | ` notify() ` | | ` final void` | ` notifyAll() ` | | ` String` | ` toString() ` | | ` final void` | ` wait(long arg0, int arg1) ` | | ` final void` | ` wait(long arg0) ` | | ` final void` | ` wait() ` | ||\n\nConstants\n---------\n\n### MEDIA_UNKNOWN\n\nadded in [version 22.1.0](/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions) \n\n```\nString MEDIA_UNKNOWN\n```\n\nUnknown storage state, such as when a path isn't backed by known storage\nmedia.\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n**See also:**\n\n- [getStorageState(File)](/reference/android/support/v4/os/EnvironmentCompat#getStorageState(java.io.File))\n\nConstant Value:\n\n\"unknown\"\n\n\nPublic methods\n--------------\n\n### getStorageState\n\nadded in [version 22.1.0](/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions) \n\n```\nString getStorageState (File path)\n```\n\nReturns the current state of the storage device that provides the given\npath.\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n| Parameters ||\n|--------|---------------|\n| `path` | `File` \u003cbr /\u003e |\n\n| Returns ||\n|----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `String` | one of [MEDIA_UNKNOWN](/reference/android/support/v4/os/EnvironmentCompat#MEDIA_UNKNOWN), [MEDIA_REMOVED](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_REMOVED), [MEDIA_UNMOUNTED](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_UNMOUNTED), [MEDIA_CHECKING](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_CHECKING), [MEDIA_NOFS](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_NOFS), [MEDIA_MOUNTED](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_MOUNTED), [MEDIA_MOUNTED_READ_ONLY](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_MOUNTED_READ_ONLY), [MEDIA_SHARED](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_SHARED), [MEDIA_BAD_REMOVAL](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_BAD_REMOVAL), or [MEDIA_UNMOUNTABLE](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html#MEDIA_UNMOUNTABLE). \u003cbr /\u003e |\n\n-\n\n Interfaces\n ----------\n\n -
