i don't get this. why my samsung doesn't allow to copy and paste games in a folder to my external sd card through mtp (which can be done a while ago) but it allows to copy/paste games that was compressed in winrar?.
i don't think its an issue of copying game one at a time.... i don't know why im getting that error when im copying games in a folder and not when it is inside the winrar..

Have you tried taking the sd card out and read it directly using a sd card reader?

May be worthwhile to invest in one. From where I am, a reliable cost less than AUD20.
It comes useful when you have to recover from a corrupted sd card too.
I can find the files by typing their path..
eg: sdcard/my folder
It opens that folder but I can't find it in my SD card folder...

same sh*t happened with me about a month ago and till date have no clue how to solve this searched tons of pages on google :crying: :crying:
Well, the good news is your device is ok. The bad news, you have a virus (in your PC surely, unless you have connected your device in another PC recently).

Hey.
Have you got that .obb file in android/obb in external sd card and don't work?
It's because new phones got changed and it need be now in phone memory like sdcard0/android/obb to work.

You can try in settings to click in app "move to sdcard" and copy file to right folder in sdcard, but i don't promise it will help .
If that don't work you will need modded apk (changed destination folder), but its hard to get it...

Missing Files

Hi,
On my DNA after installing a new Rom and copying some files around on my SD card, the files are now no longer visible using a file manager on the phone or when attached via USB to computer. But, I CAN see the files using the file manager built into TWRP. Any idea how I can make these files visible again from within Android? Is this a permissions issue?
Thank
Did u recently flash a 4.2.2 Rom? If so ur files are now under sd card, 0 file

I did, but then I copied the files over to the new SD card directory and now invisible.

Try Root Explorer (Speed Software ) from the Play Store.

[Q] Where are LIB files in internal memory?

Greetings to everybody,
I would like to know where my LIB files (from lib folder from some app) are going when I move that app from sd card to internal memory.
Lets say I have XXXX app and i move that app on sd card, then im my root "/mnt/asec/XXXX/LIB/" I got those LIB files. But when I move that app from sd card to internal memory from settings I really can't find those LIB files.
*Tried to search those files with "Search" from Root Browser, was waiting 1 hour and still didn t find anything but the searching was keep going on..
Can someone tell me what is happening with lib files when i move an app from sd to internal?
Best Regards

Error copying large zip file to sd card

Has anyone had problems copying large zip files to their sd card?
I downloaded the 4.4.3 Bootable RUU zip file which is about 1.5gb from the forum and went to copy it to my sd card and it won't let me. It gives me a message... The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected.
I've checked the md5 to make sure it wasn't corrupt and tried it on multiple computers, made sure the drivers were up to date and tried it with different cables...ugggh
I noticed however that it seems to have something to do with the zip file. If I rename the file to .txt it will let me copy it...and I can copy other typers of files just fine to the sd card.
Any thoughts on this problem and a work around to get this file on my sd card?
Same exact thing here.

Well, I sort of have a fix.
As far as the rom is concerned, I just ended up downloading it via chrome and then copying it over to the root of my sd card using ES File Explorer which seemed to work
After I wiped my phone and rebuilt it, I did noticed that ES File Explorer also has some issues deleting folders etc on the sd card. I really don't know the reasons for all this other then I have heard Google is really moving away from suppot of SD Cards in phones.
Anyway, I was able to delete the folders using the native HTC File manager app.
Hope any of this is of help to you
If the fix wasnt implemented to read/write on sdcard,itll have issues....copy to internal storage and try to move too sdcard
