I feel like a newb here with a tablet. I have the view and I have added a 16GB microsd that I have loaded with video. I wanted to copy my music to the tablet storage. How would I go about doing that? Could I just copy it to the /system/media folder or would that put it on the internal storage? Or is that something we won't be able to do until we get rooted?
Internal storage is mounted to /sdcard. The Micro SD card slot is mounted to /sdcard2.

So, I bought a vibrant for 30dollars, so now I have two, should've known something was wrong with it. LOL
The Internal SD card is dead, it says Internal SD card broken, or wrong format.. SO i couldn't use the internal or external sd.
So I was messing around, altered the vold.fstab and vold.conf files to get the phone to use the external SD card as the Internal SD card, everything is good but I still have 0.00gb of phone storage so I am unable to install any applications.
Is there any way that I can change the phone storage to the External SD card?
app 2 sd should work .also did you try to format the internal sdcard
As I was rooting my device, I realized the external microSD card is not the /sdcard and is actually /sdcard2 or /sdcard/ext_sd. I haven't pulled my microSD card to check, but I'm willing to bet its probably blank.
I'd like to have all data saved to my external microSD card versus the internal partitioned memory. Is that possible?
I'm not very familiar with linux. Is it as simple as modifying the vold.fstab so that microsd card is mounted as sdcard? And the internal memory is mounted as /int_sd? Obviously, I'd have to copy all the data from the current /sdcard to /sdcard2 for things to work properly after the edit.
Thanks in advance!
Hello.
I just bought a MicroSD, and saw on ESExplorer that the phone mounts the externalSD inside the sdcard folder /sdcard/external_sd
That way, it thinks I only have 11.5Gb available and everything I put inside my external_sd actually fills the internal memory.
I should have 11.5+8=19.5 but I don't.
Any way to fix this?
Thanks a lot!
I can't believe no one has a Galaxy S2 with an external Sd card!

Settings menu/storage and did you format it there first? Or do you use Kies and what is it using for sending stuff to your memory (Internal or External First?)
In settings/storage do you see both cards? In mine I can see SD card 29.81gb & USB storage 11.5gb.
Yes it shows the external card folder in the internal file explorer. It doesn't mean files are saved on the internal card. It was also like that on the S1 as well.
When you connect to PC in USB mode the PC will show both cards separately.

external_sd is just the mount point. You will only have ~12gb available on your internal memory because the phone uses some memory for the OS. I only have 7.4gb usable on my 8gb external sd. The available memory is always smaller than advertised

I am on CM10 10-20121126 and am having an issue mounting my SD card.
In CM10 when I mount USB storage, it mounts the internal storage. I cannot seem the find a setting to change this, but I was wondering if it is a naming issue with the internal storage. If I use the built in file manager I see that my internal storage is named sdcard0. Maybe it is just me not knowing how to use the software, but I could not change it to look at the SD card. So I downloaded ES File Explorer. Once again I see internal being named sdcard0 and now I can finally see the SD card, it is named sdcard1. The card is good and with ES File Explorer I can see data, copy, etc...
Download multimount to be able to.mount both internal and external
Hi,
I have a 32GB external SD card formatted as internal. System is not making full use of it. I cannot explicitly copy files to it.
Whatever I copy from my computer is going directly to the internal storage.
S how can I explicitly copy a file to external storage ?
