My phone can acess and categorize the files from my SD card no problem. But no matter what file explorer app I cannot seem to pull up my sd card.
I am using CM7 if that changes anything.
EDIT: The file viewer shows me the SD card but what is says is my SD shows the contents on my internal card not my external one.
Your looking at the directory for the built in SD card. The external SD card is located in local/mnt/sdcard-ext.
i did not notice this when i was on.33, but since i upgraded to ICS,
any file i copy to the internal SD card with root explorer does not show up in windows explorer, but when i browse the internal sd card with root explorer the file is there
anyone have this problem
Hello i got my sgs3 today,i have inserted a 32gb sd card,but cant find a folder link to my ext card on es fileexploer
i rebember on my sgs2 i had a folder called extsdcard or something to acces my sd card??
can anybody tell me where it is? or how to do?
regards
It's mnt/extSdCard
make sure you are in the main directory, under /mnt should be 2 files: "extSdCard" (external card -your 32gb card) and "sdcard" (internal card)
can also try just "MyFiles" if FileExplorer is giving you issues, that's what I use when not using Astro

thanks i found it,but it dident show mnt without showing hidden files,im using a app called websharing who i like very much,
but on that app it does not show mnt folder just internal card,i dident have any problems on my sgs 2 with that,because it was a folder in internal card linking to my sdcard.. is it a way to make a folder linked to sd card on internal memory??
thanks for all help
Yes.
First create a folder on your internal sd (/mnt/sdcard) called external_sd (you can name it whatever you want but for compatibility reasons you should choose this)
Then use the following tool to bind-mount /mnt/extSdCard/ to /mnt/sdcard/external_sd

You can just press the Favorite button on the es file explorer. Your external SD card should be shown there as /mnt/extSdCard/
Im having issues with my SD card. My phone will not allow me to move files from the internal storage to the external SD card. Whenever I try to set my sd card as the download location (for the browser and Adownloader) nothing will download. Any suggestions guys ...thanks
Ps im rooted and tried moving files using root explorer
I think you need something called "directory bind"
I have the MediaPad M5 CMR-W09, and it's rooted. I'm using root explorer to move some files from the internal SD Card to the external one, but I can't find it in this weird sytem. Could someone help with the correct path to the external card?
TIA,
Doc
