Guys, I have a GO which is running android 4.0.4 and unrooted.
Recently I found out my internal SD is almost fulled,
therefore I want to move them to my micro SD but there is no such a button in settings.
(Only Internal SD <--> phone)
I googled that and I found out that this thing seems to be removed on android 4.
Now here's the problem:
I viewed a page from bongizmo (Im new here I cannot post links here so google these: "bongizmo app to sd" and click the first link)
and I tried to use adb tool to achieve that.
BUT, the adb cannot identify my device despite:
1) I have turned on Debug mode.
2) I have installed the latest driver which I found on Sony PC Companion.
3) Both Sony PC Comp. and Windows XP identified my device! Only adb DIDNT!!!
I really need some help very soon 'cause my phone is going to be fulled,
I really appreciate you guys if you can help me get this thing done.
THANX A LOT.

Internal SD is fixed inside the phone, just like some tablets, so it's impossible to do that I think.

Hmm I think there should be around the system file where there is a line 'sdcard' and 'ext_card' which you need to swap the word...

just picked up a NT 8gb...
it's running v1.4.2 but i still got it rooted...i got Android Play Store (market) working... i installed the 'NT Hidden Settings' app and selected allow installs from uknown sources...yet, this doesn't seem to stick when i exit the setting...so this may be my problem #1
problem #2...i have read tons of posts from this and other sites and i can't for the life of me get CWM installed so that i can install CM7 or any other rom...a lot of the links i hit are for just the 16gb version and some say i should downgrade to 1.4, yet there is a method for rooting if on 1.4.2...very confusing...
do i need to downgrade to v1.4? what is the easiest method...
i currently have the recovery flash apk, google apps and cm7 on an sd card but this really doesn't do me any good if i can't get into CWM...
btw, if i select the .apk from withing the NT, it tells me that it's not a supported file type...

My reading is that the 8gig never was 1.4.0 so you can't downgrade. You say you are rooted and then ask about rooting. I have never had NT hidden settings stick. I would set it, leave it on the screen, hit home, search my file browser run it and use that to install my apk. This left NT hidden settings running and worked for me.
Good Luck!
oh, the reason for the confusion while searching is most threads were started before anyone dreamed of an 8gig and they have not been updated to reflect that it now exist. Most probably never will be updated. Look for specific 8gig info and assume if it is not spelled out that it does not apply to you.

Good now type adb devices and verify if you get the code under ( which means your device is being recognized) . You need to click on the runmefirst.bat if you havent yet.

Use adb push command or adb install to push the recovery flasher app, once done use adb kill-server and unmount safetly nook tablet from windows. Then in your nook tablet search for the app an open it once there let me know. You have to wait 10 seconds after you click on the flash recovery button for precaution and before you click on the reboot to recovery button.

well, i was defin frozen.... held the power button and that got me back in to the NT...no CM7 installed...
almost feel like returning this and spending the extra $50 bucks for the 16gb version and not have to go through the stuggle...
is there something different i should be doing besides just installing the cm7 zip??? i don't get why it's not running...

try wiping data, cache and dalvik cache and try again.
Verify the md5 of the file to make sure the file is not corrupted.

now i can still get into CWM from the power+N button press but it's still not letting me install..just hangs...
if i just power up, the NT hangs on the "Read Forever" screen...
i think i need to somehow revert back to the B&N rom and return this thing...

Did you make a backup of your stock rom before attempt to flash cm7? If so flash that if not you will have to download official stock 1.4.2 from B&N support web page, copy it to your sdcard and make it boot (like the acclaim_update.zip process) it should flash automatically.
~ Veronica
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda premium
no, didn't.... i'm an ape and totally messed this thing up....
if i grab the official 1.4.2 from B&N support, i can just flash that from CWM then, if i place it on the root of the sd card?
not sure why i couldn't get any of this to work...have used CWM before and messed with quite a few roms on my samsung epic pretty easily...
please delete
Why can it not just be flashed in flashtool normally?
Why format the sd card?
What is the app for?
Downloading and testing soon
Maybe try a new download site...your dropbox account will get a temporary ban if the traffic is too much.

Actually it is flashed normally, those 3 options which he mention are those 3 options which are selected by default every time when you flash full ftf.
Also, about format sd card, totally useless.
And about app, again IMHO useless(at least for this, don't know for other things that app can do), shows you language/language region/country, none of those tell you about your fw version, but about settings in your phone.
For example there is no fw for my country exactly, yet it shows letter for my country.

i got told this from the lad in the samsung and nokia sevice center in my town
and so far my phone works miles better then the first time i didnt do the format
as he said its a all new phone
as for the app its useful for making sure the region is done and other bits off info
hey bro, why you erased ur post ?
i want that guide, can u pm me ?
I only noticed this issue recently, not sure when it started.
Last time when wanted to copy stuff from my Xperia S to my PC, I could easily do it.
Now, some files seem to be invisible to me on my PC. I've even tried setting the option to "Show hidden files and folders" but nothing works.
I copy a folder (located on the phone) containing items, audio files, pictures and XML files to a common folder for easy access on my PC(Also located on my phone Internal Storage, using Astro). On Astro, I've checked and verified that the items are there.
However, when I open it on my PC, I only see some files, not all.
Worse still, even though I can only see some files and attempt to copy the whole folder to my PC, I end up copying an empty folder.
This has never happened to me before. (On the .452 ICS firmware anyways)
Sometimes, I can't even see anything in the folder.
Could it be the new 6.1.A.2.45 update or a custom kernel I installed?
Phone Details
Stock 6.1.A.2.45 FW(Updated with SUS) rooted with Advanced ICS stock kernel, followed by another flash of Xperia SSpeed kernel for OC.

Hi guys, i searched the forum before making this thread so hopefully im not spamming like an idiot, heres the deal:
I recently switched to Cyanogenmod 10.1 from Stock ICS Rom on Amaze 4g, before switching i was able to see both my internal and external sd cards when i plugged the phone to windows, they would show as "Htc Storage" and "External Disk", however after i installed Cyanogenmod 10.1 whenever i plug in my phone i only get "Disk F" and its only the internal storage, i can still access my SD card from within the phone itself and i actually store there pictures and music and stuff, but if i try to connect to the pc to download the pictures from the camera im unable to, it just wont show up.
I tried turning usb debugging off, back on, tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and i still cant seem to get it to work on windows, i tried this in two different pcs with both windows 7 and 8.
Its not a life or death situation but its certainly annoying, so any help would be greatly apreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You basically just download a ruu and run it in bootloader. You also have to out it on the root of the sd card (not in folders). And also name it to PH85IMG.
That's what I remember I'm not an expert on ruus.

I think he should use other Rom for this Bcoz according to my knowledge cynogenmod doesn't support two SD card mountind
Bcoz they made is as a standard.
But RUU is the best way I think.
