To Reproduce
A code sample or steps:

Couldn't reproduce this bug and it is observed in crashlytics.

Caused by com.amazonaws.mobileconnectors.amazonmobileanalytics.InitializationException
Encountered an error accessing the file system
com.amazonaws.mobileconnectors.amazonmobileanalytics.MobileAnalyticsManager.<init> (MobileAnalyticsManager.java:137)
com.amazonaws.mobileconnectors.amazonmobileanalytics.MobileAnalyticsManager.getOrCreateInstance (MobileAnalyticsManager.java:308)
com.amazonaws.mobileconnectors.amazonmobileanalytics.MobileAnalyticsManager.getOrCreateInstance (MobileAnalyticsManager.java:267)

We are calling above code during app initialisation. 
In turn in SDK, 
1. MobileAnalyticsManager's constructor calls validate(context) 
2. In FileManagerValidator cass, validate method creates file using "validatorFile = fileManager.createFile(new File(fileManager.getDirectory(""),
                    "validatorFile"));" 
3. Here the exception is thrown
Please support for any resolution

Which AWS service(s) are affected?
Amazon Analytics and app crashes due to this

Expected behavior
After successful initialisation of Amazon sdk, app can send events.

@ramprasad-vuclip v2.2.4 is more than 3 years old and includes a large number of bug fixes in that timeframe. Can you upgrade to 2.75.0 and report back if you are still seeing the issue?
