Hey guys,
Sorry if this is a dum question but i cant figure out what the issue is. I have a 4gb micro sd card in my Vegan Gtablet. I can go into es explorer and see the sdcard 2. I have been able to create a folder in that sdcard 2. When i take it out the folder is gone so i know that is the place i need to be. Anyways When i try to move media files from sdcard to sdcard 2. It gives me a error and wont move it. What am i doing wrong or am i missing something?
Any help would be great. Thx.
have you tried using Root Explorer to make the folder r/w? I'd like to understand the difference between the sdcard and the sdcard2. I have my gtab (vegan) mounted currently to my pc, and i see sdcard as empty and sdcard2 with files, but when i had no card in, the sdcard had the contents and sdcard 2 was empty.... Anyone have insight on these folders?
sd card2 issues
I am also running vegan on my gtab. my computer can not see sdcard2 (external card) but I can transfer files to it via usb drive using adao file manager. when I shutdown my gtab the files dissapear. Is there a fix that will allow us to use the sdcard2? Any help is appreciated thanks in advance.
I went and used root explorer and gave me error that its a read only system. Im trying to move media files from my built in gtab memory to the micro SD card? How can this be done? Help !!!

There should be a button at the top of the file list to change from RO (Read only) to RW (Read Write) file systems.
When i went into Sdcard 2 no such option. When i went to Sdcard there was. When i went back and held down on SDcard 2 and went to permission that is where i got the error.
Did you format the micro sd card correctly? I had some problems and then formatted it on my PC to FAT32 (make sure you back up your files on the card beforehand to your PC) and all was ok. I can transfer files to it via es file explorer or Astro.
vcs11 - your computer won't show your micro sd (sdcard2), only the internal storage. Disappearing files on sdcard2 seems to be pretty common. For a solution search the forum for ".nomedia" file.
So I just got my new phone today. I put in my 16GB MicroSDHC card from my old EVO 4G and things were okay until I connected the phone for the first time to my PC as a Hard Drive.
My guess is that an app was synch'ing to the SDCard when it was dismounted and wrote some files into the /sdcard folder that serves as the mount point. When it did this and I disconnected from the PC, the /sdcard folder was no longer empty so it mounted the SDCard as /sdcard2.
It now seems that the phone is still using /sdcard folder and not the /sdcard2 folder thus rendering the card unused.
Has anyone seen this? How do I fix it? I dismounted and erased the card. I even did a factory reset on the phone, but it didn't seem to erase files inside of the /sdcard folder so it still mounts to the wrong place.
In most apps you can't change where it writes its data but it's usually to the internal sd. When you plug your phone to your pc you can only browse your external sd.
/sdcard is the internal memory
/sdcard2 is the card you plugged in
When I plug in to my PC, I select the Media Sync option and can see both sdcards just fine.
I hope jelly bean fixes that, but then again I was hoping ics would fix it and that didn't happen.

Ah! Thanks for the responses. I've just done what I always had done with my older EVO 4G ... and couldn't see the folders I was expecting.
I feel better now. Too bad the normal disk drive USB option doesn't mount both...oh well.
If u root and use team win recovery you can select which SD card to mount from recovery. Not sure if this will help or not.

Is anyone having issues seeing folders on the internal drive when using media sync? For example, using ES File Explorer, I can see and SMS Backup folder and Angry Birds Backup folder. However, when I connect to a pc with media sync I can see some of the folders that are on the internal drive but not those. Anyone else having this issue?
Edit: I am still not sure why I am having this issue but I do have a bit of a workaround. I used ES File Explorer to move the folder I wanted to update to my sd card. Then I connected it to the pc and updated the folder. After that I went back into ES File Explorer and moved the folder back to the internal drive. I was able to update my SMS Backup etc.

problem i see though is i just made a nand and it saved it in the internal memory not to the external sd card but when I go to restore its not finding the backup I made.
If you use a file manager app, such as ES Explorer, to copy or move it to your external drive / sdcard2 / or ext_sd / then you can use twrp to restore it. hope that helps
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
Hello, fairly new to rooting but I used to have an EVO 3D and when USB mounted to the PC, I had access to the hidden folders on the phone and SD card.
When mounting through USB on my Note 3 (rooted), these folders are hidden on both the phone and SD card storage. I can still access the hidden folders using ES File Explorer, but how can I access these folders through my PC connected through USB?
Tried searching and couldn't find an answer, and I was hoping that ES Explorer had a mounting option but I can't find it >_<, thanks for any help!
