Description
Actual behaviour
When accessing an external storage from the android app that doesn't have the credentials saved it shows that the server is in maintenance mode. If I go from a browser, access the external storage, enter the credentials (to be saved) I can afterwards access the folder from the android app as well.
Expected behaviour
The android app should ask for the credentials if they are not saved.
Steps to reproduce
- Add an external storage to Nextcloud, SMB type in my case and authentication "user entered, stored in database"
- Access the external storage from the android app first.
Environment data
Android version: OxygenOS 9.0.4 (based on android 9)
Device model: OnePlus 6
Stock or customized system: Stock
Nextcloud app version: 3.5.1
Nextcloud server version: 15.0.5
PS: not sure if this is present on the ios app as I don't have an iphone to test.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by configuring Nextcloud external storage with SMB and stored user-entered credentials, then accessing it first from the Android app. No server files or tests are named; done means the app requests missing credentials instead of displaying a maintenance-mode error.
