Use root explorer or use a direct convertor from your SD

[Q] transfer files from android phone ext sd to tab?

Have pics on my rooted atrix's external sd card. Astro bluetooth nor bluetooth file trans app show the sd card even when browsing from the phone. Is there a "right" way to do this? Some way to make the sd discoverable as a drive?
I know I could move to internal storage on phone then using astro btooth upload to tab or use tab to find the file. But the folder is too big to put on the phones internal. And of course there's dropbox but isn't there an easy direct way to browse the phones ext sd from my tab?
If the answer involes vpn, kies or adhoc could u plz explain.
Thanks all!
you can download root explorer or another file browser that has access to all of your folders. Of course you need to root your tablet before.
And that has bluetooth file transfer? I have rooted the tab.

SD CARD error AOKP_Bezke

Good day all,
I have a question,
I am using the AOKP_Bezke ROM and it's a good ROM, I only experience a difficulty which for I don't understand.
For some awkward reason it only recognizes my 11 GB internel (USB) storage but It cannot find my SD CARD.
This is a huge disadvantage for me because I got allot of memory on my SD CARD, it's just strange why it doesn't recognize it. Same goes when I connect my phone to my laptop, it only sees my internal storage.
My phone only recognize my SD Card when I use my stock ROM.
Can someone help me out please? I am in a state of confusion.

Switch to MTP mode or if u r using mass storage mode then use multi mount sdcard from play store to mount both sdcard.

Use a file explorer
Use a file explorer with root access (ES File Explorer works for me) and look in /mnt/emmc. AOKP ROMs are a bit funny with sd cards.

Thanks for your answer, but that is probably the worst app that I have used on my phone.
It crashes immediately.

I know this already, it's just that my phone ain't using it.
When I check my storage it only says "Internal storage > 1GB "USB Storage > 11 GB" but no where do I see my SD CARD.
I cannot manage my SD card via my phone nor use it, nor do I see it on my laptop when I connect my phone to it.
What can be the issue here?

Best way to Manage MTP Storage? Need Advice

Those who are better advanced using MTP please advice...
Issue I am coming from a VZW Thunderbolt my old SD card is in the S3. It still seems to pickup ringtones, videos, pictures from the ext. sdcard. As we know we cannot see the ext card or save to the external card. So I am a bit lost how to manage myself since the S3 pulls in some files from the ext sdcard but I cannot save or see that card using the S3.... Do I still add certain files to the MTP space and drop using the ext. sdcard or try to figure out what the MTP can see and manage both storage areas?
How do you handle data that is on the ext. sdcard with the built-in storage MTP?
If I go all MTP...is there a way to back that up to say the ext. sdcard via from the S3?
When I do a Clockworks backup I assume that goes to the MTP space?
Thx fam any input is helpful...
I don't like using MTP because it always seems unreliable when copying multiple files. I prefer to install SwiFTP on the phone and run that as an FTP site while connecting to it from Filezilla on my computer. Then you can transfer files wirelessly via FTP. I find it to be more reliable when copying lots of files.

Phone is confused between USB storage and my SD card

I just upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy Ace 2, after using my old Xperia for 2 years. I love the phone apart from one really annoying problem and that's the phone seems to be confused between its USB Storage and SD card.
The USB storage is 1.10 GB and seems to be the default partition for large app data that you have to download like maps for gps and game files for hd games, so it runs out very quickly.
It is located at /sdcard
I have a 32GB SD card, where I ideally want this application data to live so I can have more apps.
It is located at /sdcard/external_sd.
I tried editing vold.fstab to swap internal/external sds to no avail and had to restore the original.
Task Manager > Storage is showing my storage information correctly but apps such as App to SD are treating my USB storage like my SD card. When these apps download their additional data it goes to my USB storage. In the applications menu "On SD Card" displays apps on my USB storage.
I'm looking for either:
A way to move the apps and appdata from USB storage to my SD card. I know this can be done in a file manger but then the apps wont be able to find their data.
A way for these apps to save additional data to my SD Card NOT my USB storage.
A way to get the phone to realise my USB storage is NOT my SD Card.
A way to completely disable USB storage and use my SD card as its primary storage function.
A working vold.fstab modification for the Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-i8160
Many thanks
I'm actually trying to find a way to get my games to install their data on my external SD card. The USB storage is actually an internal SD card inside your phone so its not actually getting confused. The only way for apps to save their data to your external SD card is for the developer to make it an option in the ROM. There's a mod for Gameloft games that allows it to install its data onto your external SD card if that helps. Just Google it.

Trouble transfering files onto sd card

I have several videos i want to transfer from sd card back to my computer.
But everytime i try it just cuts of the transfer and doesnt move any files.
With my old phone it was read as removable device and with teracopy i could move all that i wantd.
But with S3 it mounts my device as "GT-I9300 Portable Media Player" not as SD card.
I would use a sd card adaptor but my sd card is encrypted so will only work with phone.
Is there a way around this and mount the phone as a removable device or are there programs to manage the file transfer from phone to pc?

WiFi file transfer Pro is my suggestion. It doesn't require a cable - you just connect to the same wifi network as your comp. and then type an adress in the url bar and then download/upload as you please to both internal and external sd.
Thanks for your reply.
Wifi file transfer pro is a paid app, if there a way to do this using the transfer cable as i usually move several gigs over from my phone to computer and back and prefer to use a reliable connection.
Also i am unable to use teracopy to transfer my files like before i am limited to just move and when try moving several files it makes the next set copy across instead of moving.
Use Airdroid
It's free & it's actually the dogs nuts. It's on every pc, laptop & phone I own.
