Can someone tell me how I can view the internal sd card files please, cant see it on laptop (win7) and also cant see it in the phone, only external appears. Drovers and PC Companion are installed.
If you want to see your SD files on your phone...
- Go to Android market and search "file manager". There are plenty of file manager apps for free on the market. Some popular ones include Explorer and Astro. (I'm using the former) Install one of those applications and you will be able to navigate to your SD card via your phone.
If trying to access SD card via PC...
- After you plug your phone into the USB, a little USB icon should appear on your phone. Tap on it and enable USB connection. Your phone should scan for the SD card files.
The methods said above is clear and i have to add… as far as i know, there is no way to view your internal storage on a computer... but anyway you can just copy the files using a file explorer to the sd card

You have to download link2sd and go to settings and set install location to external. It works just like adb shell

Download and install titanium backup pro from anywhere you like. Open the program and click on the options button of your phone and click on batch. You'll see a number of operations followed by a run button after each one. Scroll down and you'll see "move all user apps to SD card", click on run and you are done

Without partitioning the SD card, you will always have part of the apps on internal. With partitioning the SD card, you can move the entire apps to SD card.
I just went to gplay (marketplace) and got app2sd. Whether the phone is rooted or not you should be able to move the apps to the sdcard-ext, as long as there is enough room.

Yeah it helps in moving some apps to sd but it doesnt allows you to move all the app to sd. you may need to root you phone in order to move all apps to sd. when i used to use app2sd when i just started using android i used to have around 40 mb internal memory free inspite of moving all the apps that were possible to move on an unrooted phone to sd. I was then inspired to root my phone when i saw its possibilities

I am using link2sd and it works like a charm. I have not partitioned my sd card.
TRY THIS
If u have lucky patcher installed on ur device, the version should be 3.9.3, first of all, move ur app or game's data (the very known com.xyz.xxxxx folder) to extsd/android/data or obb by using filemanager , now create that folder with a same name in sdcard or internal sd/android/data or obb/here, which would be like com.xyz.xxxxxx, open lucky patcher v3.9.3 goto toolbox tap directory binder, remember it will not bind the whole sdcard or internal sd , it will work only for particular directory (folder), so no need to worry, now tap on add new directory bind, no tap browse the 1st one, and show it to the path of that extsd/android/data/com.xyz.xxxx folder after that select current directory, now go for browse the 2nd one, goto the internal path should be like sdcard/android/data or obb/com.xyz.xxxx select current directory, now tap on bind directory. thats it, it will save ur sdcrd space. u can check it by setting then storage, i successfully did it in my funbook infinity having 1.5gb internal space available, plays the amazing Spider-Man2 , the dark knight rises, and dead trigger.
I have a rooted but otherwise stock Galaxy Tab S 8.4 (SM-T705) and I have a 128GB Sandisk SD card. Is it possible to move all apps (with all their contents) to the SD card? I read that even though my device is rooted, I will need to partition my SD card first before i can move all apps (with all their contents) to the SD card? Can someone please tell me how to partition my SD card? Also, if I move all apps with all their contents to SD card, would the running of such apps encounter any problems (as part of them are supposed to be in the device internal memory?)
I tried Link2 SD and Titanium Backup Pro but I could not see any such function (only native Android app2sd).
Thank you very much in advance.
How can I access my SD card? I'm using root explorer and I'm only seeing the things that are on the hard drive. Thanks.
The "My files" app lets u view both if ur still stock or havent removed it

Wow I had to reset the phone that app wasn't showing, thanks!
In root explorer I can find the ext SDCard in /mnt/extSdCard
I've found that I/O FileManager works much better than My Files.
File Explorer can access it by going to favorites > Mnt/extsdcard.
But samsung has actually worked on making it difficult to do Apps 2 SD for some reason so dont even try it
I can't get clockwork mod to access the micro sd card - is it because of the name... ie, does it need to be changed to emmc or something like that?

oops - sorry just found another thread about it. I'll have to wipe it later..
Okay. I am having problems with my usb storage. When i connect my phone to my computer via usb it pulls up as a disk drive right. I recently had a Rom that used "Usb mass storage" to connect as disk drive which gave me a higher level of access. I put the rom zip that i am using now on the root of my sd card using the "USB mass storage". Now, with this new rom, whenever i connect my phone to the computer i dont see my rom zip file on the root of the sd card. I cant find it anywhere. Do i need to format my sd card or something? Any ideas are appreciated. Please and thanks.
Stupid question probably, but do u have it on sd2? The regular stock roms only let u access sd2 from computer. HTC sync option lets u manage sd. At least that's how it is on mine.

So. Should I mount with HTC sync instead of as a disk drive? I done rightly know if it is sd 2 right now

Sure, why not. Do u have a sd card in it or are u just using the internal sd?

Ok, well can u see any other files when u select usb storage or whatever it is? If not try reformatting the sd card on your computer. Should be able to right click on portable drive.
When u try HTC synch can u see any files on sd or sd2? On your phone make sure the Rom zip is on sd2 or extsd and not sd. If that's the case then move it over to sd2. Then try mount as usb storage.
I have been trying this entire time to download the hct sync manager without success until now. It pulls up and syncs the music and such to my phone but nothing else. I cant view anymore than before. I booted into recovery to find exactly where i put the ROM zip and it is in /sdcard
When i open the phone on my computer i am looking into /sdcard2 . Did my card become partitioned or something? Now both of those are the external sd. Any ideas to get to where i can view it all. Like truly view the "root" of my sd card? On the card it would just be / How can i view just that on my computer? And ideas? Thanks
Move the Rom file from sd to sd2 in astro, es file manager, root explorer, whatever file manager u have. Then connect to computer and select usb mass storage.
U cannot view sd(1) on computer without HTC sync. Usb mass storage option lets u view sd2 only.
If u are having issues delete your old drivers and HTC sync then install again.
I'm not going to continue to repeat myself. Really don't understand "root" of sd card. U don't need a rom to be on root to view it on computer.
What does it do when u move it to sd2 then view on computer with mass storage?

Okay. Firstly, I don't need to move the ROM. I already flashed it in recovery. All I wanted was to see if I did something wrong that limited me to only be able to see that portion of my sd card. I know that my rom does not have to be on the root of the SD card. the only reason why I brought up was too create some correlation. I appreciate your help but this was merely for curiosity sake

Are u trying to view the android file system? There's no way to really do that. Its kinda like only the computer or phone can view sd card at one time. Since phone is actively using file system.
Maybe if u could explain what u want to do I would understand more. U want to view what exactly?
Root explorer lets u view every file on your phone. Have u tried that? Copy every file on root and paste to sd2= profit? : /
Hi,
I'm still trying to find a ROM that I can use for my daily usage. My main problem is that almost all the ROMs that I flash fail to detect my ext_sd folder, a.k.a. my external SD card.
When I flash an ICS ROM and go to the file explorer to install titanium backup and restore my apps, it says that this folder is empty.
Sometimes when I restart several times, it finds my SD card, sometimes I have to flash other ROMs to have it but it's OK in some ROMs like CM10 but eventually it losts this folder as well.
Since I'm S-ON, I can't get back to GB ROMs.
SD card may be problamatic but it's OK when I mount it via attaching cable to phone or attaching it directly to my PC with a SD card cartridge.
What could be the problem? How I can check that SD card is OK?
Thanks.
Let me add this that if I open back of my phone and remove and re insert the SD card, it gets detected but it's cumbersome.
Use a root explorer to go up to root and instead of ext sd go into sd card 2 folder. Should be there

I have this 32gb external sdcard and i want to copy videos, mp3's and other files on it. i tried connecting my device to my pc and start to copy files to my phone's external sd (sdcard1), error displays "The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected". i also tried root explorer but error says "Copy failed".
I can transfer files to my device internal memory (sdcard) without problems but i don't want to put the files there because the storage might get full. I also tried sdcard fix from playstore but it won't do it.
btw, I have a rooted phone with dual recovery, fw 23.0.1.A.167. i hope someone can help me on this...
Try to format the sdcard in your phone, maybe it solve the problem

Type this commands in adb:
adb push example.mp3 /data/media/0/
And open file manager on your phone/tablet, move example.mp3 from sdcard to ext. sd

Me too faced the same problem a few days ago when i updated my phone to the same firmware, i tried everything but nothing worked, then after trying all the things which i found, i tried changing the card and it worked! Then i put my card in other phone, it didn't work there too!
Result: my card somehow became read-only! I could read the files which were already on it but i was not able to write or delete something. Got it replaced under warranty, everything is fine now.
Wish you luck with your card!
