Hi - Silly question time
Got an 8GB microsd card in the Neo but can't find it in File Manager. Where should it be?
The card is recognised as it is shown in Storage.

use androzip.apk. you can download that in the market...
well open some file manager and go to folder called sdcard
By default any file manager will start on the SD card and if you have to find anything it would in fact be your phone memory...perhaps that's why you can't see it because you think that's the phone memory...when it's actually the SD card?
Told you it was a silly question... Cheers

ok im new to this and i have done some looking but still need some basic info ,,
i have root on my i717, flashed the overclock kernel , and installed CWR , now i need to know how to use clock works ,,
i keep seeing diff mods , " flash with CWR " but it has no exp on how to flash with CW , So how do you do this ?
use the phone down load ship goin in to cwr and find the zip and install ? how and wher to do this i need more detail , or can you flash all this with odin ?
any help would be great ? and when i get into this more i will be glad to send funds to developers via paypal ex
a link for dummies would work as well
thanks
CWM is super easy to use......go the OP of the CWM beta1 thread and he elxplains the ins and outs of getting into CWM. once your in it....all you have to do is have the file at the root of the SD card and go to install zip/install zip of SD/ then choose the zip and flash.
i do not have the beta on my phone yet, but i would just check the OP he seems to have laid it out pretty well.
You dont even need to have the file anywhere special on your SD card either. Just somewhere where you can find it because once you select install zip from sd card you have to navigate where you put it.

If you didn't put a microSD card in your phone for extra storage it won't have a "external SD" folder.
I do have a 16g sd , it has the. Ext sd card fie but was not there

Ok well open up the "my files" app and scroll down to see if a "external_sd" folder exists. If it isn't there then go to settings -> storage, and make sure the SD card is mounted.
If you download a Rom directly from your note it should be in a folder called "download"

Well "my files" shows the sd card, and the settings only shows unmount option for safe removel, so I'm sure its mounted

Not sure if I should have created a new thread for this but here goes. I flashed CWR through Odin yet when I go into recovery it's still stock recovery?
Did I do something wrong, I got success in Odin?
EDIT: I figured it out, my bad.
Hey guys a little help please. So I have a springboard and I wanted to update it to ics. So I went to the huawei website and downloaded the file unzipped and I put the dl folder in the root of my SD card, but when I went to install it said fail. Am I doing anything wrong. I followed the PDF instructions and it doesn't work just says FAIL all the time. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance
Try download and extract it again. It helped for me.

Well I've been trying for like 3 hours and still no luck. Which is the root cuz I noticed when I plug the card into the computer and the prompt comes up to choose what I want (and I choose open folder to.view files) on the top of the screen it says g:\ and when I choose the open folder to.view file it turns the g to a E:/ so which is the official root. Anyway I tried putting the dload in both and nothing. I have no clue what else to do. This isn't the first time I do some Modding on electronic equiptment. I have my phone rooted and Ive installed android into windows phones...I also tried redownloading the file but nothing.
Do you have a SD card in the machine? Be aware that the internal memory on the Mediapad calls itself SD but it is not.

Not sure why you are having these problems. Any reason why you don't just install one of the rooted ROMs found here?

My card is already a fat32. I've tried it all. Can it be because my springboards build number is S7-303u and the file I downloaded is S7-302u?
well screw that stupid download from the website i dont know why i wasnt able to imstall ics on my springboard. so i went to the [ROM][ICS] [UNOFFICIAL] Root-ready Huawei MediaPad/SpringBoard ICS International and it was installed on the first try. so like i said i have no clue what i was doing wrong or if it was just crap. well guys thanks for you help especially rkwhyte2

You can download a file manager from the internet or from the Play Store (if you have it)
You can also view your SD Card from your computer via USB cable
Hope this helps

Every time I try to download anything the default location is the internal sd card. I try to switch it to choose the external sd card but it says "Can't find file or directory. Please make sure your SD card is ready, and USB Mass Storage is turned off."
I can not find the setting for the USB Mass Storage. But I'm able to see the sd card and see the folders and files I have on there with ES File Explorer.
Any help on this! Thanks!

Solved the problem but it requires root. See my tutorial.

In KitKat, write access to external SD card is blocked, you need to wait for a dev to MOD the system to allow for writing to external SD card.

Try using the My Files app that is built in. As it is not third party it should have full access to the SD card
Gladyscoleman said:
You need to install application from Google play store. Apps names are MY File and ES File Explorer File Manager . its a internal application for android and with the help of this you full access of SD Card.

I experience a similar problem with a rooted Lenovo 790. It can always see phone memory, but occasionally can't see the SD card. Rebooting does not help. The only way I've found to overcome this is to physically remove the SD card and replace it, then reboot the phone.
