Trouble in file sharing with kdeconnect-kde

Initially I was getting files written directly to root, but out of nowhere,
later it started working fine. Later I discovered that the files are not
complete, or I can say that they are sent complete but socket wasn't
reading full data, instead of 4096 bytes, it was reading some random number
of bytes.
These strange bugs always get in my way, but thanks for telling me that I
am not alone. I will dive in deeper to fine the root cause.
I don't think either that, that commit was causing it. But out of many
strange things I encountered yesterday, this was also one them :)
I will check this all again.
Thanks
