I am not able to delete files on SD card - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
I am not able to delete files on my SD card even though i used to work.
probably it is because i copied files using card reader, but does it mean i cant delete files by file manager in phone? how can i delete them with my phone?
i use galaxy s3, es explorer, rooted.
thank you

First, check other explorers (like Root Explorer).
Second- are you able to delete files using card reader? if the answer is yes- see if your SD is encrypted under 'Security' settings

i cant delete them using stock file manager and es explorer with root permissions, i can delete them with card reader but i dont have eny encryption enabled.

Did you check with root browser? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree

problem with root

hi guys.i use latest cyanogen mod nightly i am rooted ofc but with the default cyanogen file manager and with couple of others i tested i cant move files to root of the sd.i am s-off btw any solutions?
Just drop the file on your SD card, don't put it in a folder, that is the root of your SD card.

first of all thanks for fast response.i want to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111145 so i need to put a file on init.d folder
You will need a File Manager which supports System Folders. That folder cannot be found on your SD Card but on your internal memory. Examples are Root Explorer and ES File Manager. The default File manager and others like Astro wont work.
indeed it worked.thnx a lot

SD CARD

How can I access my SD card? I'm using root explorer and I'm only seeing the things that are on the hard drive. Thanks.
The "My files" app lets u view both if ur still stock or havent removed it

Wow I had to reset the phone that app wasn't showing, thanks!
In root explorer I can find the ext SDCard in /mnt/extSdCard
I've found that I/O FileManager works much better than My Files.
File Explorer can access it by going to favorites > Mnt/extsdcard.
But samsung has actually worked on making it difficult to do Apps 2 SD for some reason so dont even try it
I can't get clockwork mod to access the micro sd card - is it because of the name... ie, does it need to be changed to emmc or something like that?

oops - sorry just found another thread about it. I'll have to wipe it later..

Interesting I have no problems with accessing the internal and external SD card, did you buy a new SD card?, Have you checked that it's formatted under the right file system?, and that it's the right type for your phone?.
It does detect ......but.. to access the files download es file explorer ...enable option upto root. ..
Goto root
Mnt
extra-sd
And there are all the files.

You shouldn't need a Root explorer to access the files on the phone since I have no issues without using a Root explorer maybe he just needs to download and install a file manager from the Google Play Store.

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.

Make sure You checked 'root explorer' in options
Try Root Browser rather, it's easier to work.
