I think this is regarding all devices using 4.4 and above (maybe other versions too)
On all my Samsung Galaxy Devices - Note 2, S4 and now my NotePro 12.2 I cant download or transfer files directly to my microsd card unless I root unless device and change the write permissions in
system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
I have rooted my S4 and can download files from the net and save them directly to my microsd card - I dont want to root my new NotePro 12.2 so my question is
can I do this without root somehow???
Whats the point of having a microsd card slot if you cant write to the card???
Stupid Google and there so called "Open Source" File System!!!
Your slowly becoming as closed and unuseable as your Fruit Based Competitor!!!
Let me use my sd card as I want - its MY card, MY media, MY phone/tablet - no reason why I should need a pc to put files on the sd card. I should (like I always have been able to do before 4.4.2) be able to do this directly on my device without needing to void my warranty!!!

This is a problem of newer samsung devices themselves, not android
Try formatting the SD card or changing it, the samsung ones are more stable

It's Google and the way they set the permissions - this happens on Nexus devices too and HTC as far as im aware!!!!
It's on newer versions of android only - 4.4.2 definitely 4.4 most likely and 4.3 possibly!!!
Ohh and it is nothing to do with the sd card or how it is formatted either!!!

This problem is more apparent with Samsung devices as they are one of the remaining device manufacturers that still have external microsd cards.
Upon research the same thing happened when 4.3 rolled out and was later fixed with a firmware update.
It is a line of code in the file I mentioned above, that Google changed in the vanilla version for security reasons and to stop external storage use and to push cloud storage. They even forgot to change it for the Motorola devices that had microsd card slots.
It is a really easy fix to implement but unfortunately the only way I have found that enables the end user the ability to make the changes requires Root.
Manufacturers like HTC dont need to change the file as they dont have microsd slots.... Samsung do, and hopefully they will change the code.
A big boo boo on Google and Samsungs part if you ask me, Samsung have stuck with external expandable memory, and rightly so if you ask me - but they should be more thorough when implementing Android on there devices. Google need to up the amount if built in storage on there decices if they dont want to use expandable memory, 16/32gig isnt enough onboard storage if you can't expand it in todays media led age, if Apple can fit 150gig in a bloody ipod touch they have no excuse.

I've seen mention of there being a fix for root users... do you happen to know what it is? I just updated my Galaxy S4 to 4.4.2 and then found out about this issue. It's a pretty big deal to me since FolderSync I can't use daily like I always do, not to mention FX file explorer for grabbing things off my server via SMB (to the SD card at least). It's a pretty big problem for me, though I'm rooted so hoping there's an easy fix.

hi i just got a samsung galaxy s3, but there is no app 2 sd card function like on the galaxy s2. Can Someone help me out here, i have even tried app to sd apps but those don't seem to work either.
it has been already answered, learn to use the search button, it will be useful for you to solve your queries soon
and the answer is sgs3 uses whole internal sd for apps(11gb) so there is no need for app to sd
i thought it was possible to move apps to the external sd card because i remember doing that on the s2...i just came from and iphone...so bare with me...sorry about the search i thought it was a limitation of the s3 not android.

no worries learn soon
It is a limitation of S3, not Android. I read the OneX has that functionality.
bala_gamer, with all due respect the 16GB internal sd is not enough.
I managed to fill it the second day. I have many games and i use (used, not anymore unfortunately) Google Play Music, which is supposed to store offline music on the external sd, but couldn't do so on my S3.
Users MUST be given the option to move to sd as they were previously able to.
This is just a Samsung blunder.
One X has not SD card slot -> it can't have app2SD
Samsung could include it but for whatever reason they won't and just blame Google, so what I think is Samsung either leaves it out so they can start making more phones with different memory sizes and make more money from the sales, or they don't like the way Google has changed the file system to allow better ExFat support and Samsung left it out to highlight the problem and get customers on their side to get Google to change.
Hello, I really hate that the s3 doesn`t have usb mass storage, I saw someone saying that mtp is better than the clasic transfer but I really see no advantages.Is pretty hard to recover a file once deleted as you can`t assign a drive letter , you can`t use your phone while files are being transferred but the most annoying of all is that you can`t preview your pictures/videos before copying it, so tell me, how is mtp better than usb mass storage that was on s2?
My digital camera has mtp also and I CAN preview the pictures before copying them to my pc so this is possible, the question is how can I do this on my s3 also?Is very annoying that I have to check every picture and video as you don`t know what you are transferring.
Thank you for your potential answers.
I don't know which one is better but if you want UMS then there is a app called easy ums that you can download if you are rooted. Just search for it in the forums.

- Far less risk of disk corruption due to advanced filesystem technology (EXT4 instead of FAT32)
- Apps don't loose their data (which they often store on the /sdcard) while mounted on the computer
- Compatibility across all MTP-capable computers and electronic devices
- Conversion into supported format by host computer (ok, that one might not be a real advantage))

Additionally it only requires a direct or accesspoint-based Wifi connection, not a physical cable between the computer and the phone.
Requires root though (mostly because of it using privileged ports)

Why does everyone just assume features to be present which do not have to, and then claim to rely on them?
There's something called Google. Due to performance- and security-reasons more and more devices will drop USB-mount in favor of MTP.

You can't use it on Samsung-based firmwares, which sucks. Cyanogenmod doesn't seem to have that restriction.

The usb mass storage was such a nice feature, I couldn`t guess that they will delete it on the s3, the advantages are meaningless as I didin`t had any problem with my s2 . why my digital camera with mtp allows to preview the pictures as thumbnails the the s3 not?Is that impossible to preview the files before copying with the s3 via usb?

Workaround : I always rename the pictures or videos in phone 1st before connect to PC. Is easier to recognise which files I want to transfer rather than waiting for the thumbnails.

Mine lets me see thumbnails for movies and pictures in MTP mode.

CM is a modified (enhanced) version of Google's original Android version without manufactur-specific bloatware and issues such as Touchwiz which is quite a memory-hog.

You could also download the XXALF2 kernel and flash it. That fixes MTP connection and you can stay on Sammy ROM. Tried it myself. ALF2 is the last kernel MTP ever worked for me with my iMac. Or cm9 or cm10....

bought a 16gb class 10 microsd, I`m happy that at least my card will work the same as s2, I can use my phone while i`m copying files and stuffs, I can preview them before and I also made 5 pictures, deleted them and was able to recover them, this 3 things weren`t possible with the ****ty mtp.The only bad thing seems to be that the burst shot photos are saved on the phone, I heard that somehow we can force the phone to save them to the microsd but I don`t know how.
May not be of any help but I personally use Airdroid for data transfer off the internal memory, aslong as you have a wireless n router I find it better than using MTP. (have had lots of tranfer freeze ups with MTP so gave up using it). Downside is atmo airdroid doesn't seem to be able to access external storage, so would use UMS, card reader, etc for that.

internal memory is fast i agree, but it is still not faster than class 10 memory cards.
when i transfer data to internal memory it never went above 8 mbps....but with my class 10 memory card i can transfer with 16 mbps speed....so flash memory isnt always the fastest one

It is not history it's optional. It's a feature still embedded in ICS and Jelly Bean but it just needs to be turned on. They made it optional due to the devices like the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 which had no external memory. So having the feature would be pointless. It can be turned on though. I have a couple devices that has it work through your normal system settings.

The main issue with that is majority of consumers that are using these devices have no clue what a class is in relation to SD cards. Hell half of them think SD cards are SIM cards and vice versa and their pictures are on the SIM xD

I know the modern consumer is anything but "brilliant", but pictures on a SIM card? Lol. That may be a touch harsh, though it did get me to laugh.
On a side note, my current devices happen to be the exact same as yours. Fancy that.
Just rooted p769, installed app2sd and want to move apps. When run app2sd get this message:
"the device does not have a real primary external storage, or the primary external storage is emulated. Moving app to SD function may not be supported by this device."
any alternatives or any way to remap without app2sd or link2sd? I have not tried link2sd yet but it'll probably be similar. Would like to remap or move apps until JB/CM is available which will likely have it integrated.

He's saying that the larger apps such as for example real racing still save the data files to the sdcard. Now the difference is that you can move the actual app to the sdcard.

I recently updated my i9300 to foxhound 0.1, which is android 4.2.2.
It works fine and all BUT sometimes when installing apps or updating them they get installed to sd card automatically!
I did some googling, without much luck though since it seems i'm the only one interested in keeping my apps on the internal storage rather than the micro sd.
I had the doubt this was either the fault of apps like
App2sd/Link2sd so i uninstalled them (i really never actually used them), but i doubt it was their making...
What happened is with this new 4.2.2 now i am able to actually move apps to sd card (while on any other rom i dont even recall being able to) and this is cool, but i don't need it. Problem is my phone WANTS to.
So how can i change the default installation directory before i choose to throw my phone against the wall?:banghead:

He is talking about them going to the micro SD card.
Exactly external sd. They just go there themselvesn it doesn't occur with all apps, so i'm guessing maybe the devs put some preferences in the installation properties? I think i recall reading about android devs being able to do this somewhere in their projects.....

Try asking in the foxhound threads.
Hello all i have the tab s6 that i got primarily for photo editing using lightroom. Unfortunately it seems i cant access any form of external storage through lightroom in order to view pictures and then import them into lightroom to edit them. It seems that I first have to transfer the pictures into the internal storage of the tab, in my case 256gb, and only then i can see the pictures in lightroom prior to importing them. By doing this i would essentially end up with duplicate photos and then reducing the storage even further.
The only way i can access the external storage is via the files manager app installed. Is there any work around this? In ios i can see the pictures from the external storage through lightroom prior to import.
What Android version? Scoped storage is fully active in Android 11/12 and it's a mess.
Unless the app has special permissions like that file app, scoped storage will puke on them and limit their access. You may be able to do a adb edit work around, not sure as I refuse to deal with these OS versions.
Maybe try using a OTG flashstick as a work around.
Running Android 11 and no new update available. And lightroom app permission under files and media it says “allow access to media only” dont see other options
Any app that allows full access to external drives where i can see the full size picture thats stored?

Lightroom developers need to modify it for it to work most likely. Not a trivial task.
Do some searches to see if you can modify this behavior with adb edits. Yeah, now even bloody iPhones are easier to use than Androids, thanks for nothing Gookill...
I would just download the whole file copy onto the PC. You need to back it up anyway...
Last thing i want is too root the tab and gave things go wrong. Havent rooted an Android device in years and always more of a hassle than what improvements where promised

I prefer using stock. Adb editing is just modifying the user partition, a factory reset will undo the changes if you goof up.
If it came loaded with 11 you can't flash it back to 10 because of the boot loader version.
Try some Google searches ie something like "scoped storage workaround adb". Add xda to it to find threads about it here. Maybe Package Disabler could help but I doubt it as scoped store is a core feature.
There's a lot of pissed off Android users right about now... you're not alone.
Share your wuv and give Google some feedback.
I have to N10+'s, one is running on Pie, the newest on Q. Both behave almost identically, however Samsung added dozens of small system apks to do that... Samsung went to a lot of trouble to do that.
You confirmed my fear Samsung couldn't or wouldn't be able to do the same with the models running on R and above.
The culprit is Google not Samsung.
It's the game that moves as you play it.
Something so simple that they are alienating photographers and are forcing them into ios, maybe I should have gotten an ipad pro

There are work arounds but you shouldn't need to do this. At this point Android is more iPhone than Android... a tard wannabe iPhone that is.
Return if you still can.
If you get a Samsung running on P or Q it will function normally and still have sufficient security.
Be wary of buying devices as they may list P or Q as the loaded OS when in fact they've been updated or factory loaded (depending on manufacturered date) with R.
Tried to look into the scoped storage but seems to be too much of a hassle and not really working possibly depending on what you need. There doesnt seem to be a definitive answer to my particular issue in regards to having lightroom (adobe) have access to external storage. I might just have to bite the bullet and get a 1tb microsd card although thats a huge expense.
On another note, Adobe should make it a requirement to have access to external storage, its possible in IOS and windows and tell google to allow it.
Test a small sd card first to make sure it works as you want with scoped storage.
Get a V30 rated card, Sandisk Extreme works well.

Thanks but not really what i am looking for. Will test out and old microsd card i have from an old android phone and see how that goes
So some positive news to report. Tried an old microsd card. As expected it automatically displays the photos in the photo app just like the built in storage. So tried to copy a picture that i had backed up in the external ssd, did this via the file manager app. Then the moment of truth, opened up Lightroom and i have access to the additional microsd card, the picture that i copied from the ssd along with all the other old photos showed up in lightroom. So, as much of an inconvenience this is, it seems that for my needs and workflow, i would need the extra microsd card.
So here would be my work flow after taking pictures
1-Backup all the pictures taken on a certain date into the Samsung T5 SSD.
2-Also copy all of the pictures into the extra microsd card (1tb)
3-Go through all the pictures on the microsd card using lightroom to decide which ones to edit and then import them into lightroom.
4-Do all my edits then save those edits into the built in storage, upload to Facebook, instagram, etc. then save those final edits into the Samsung T5 SSD.
5-Format the 1tb microsd and repeat the whole process when needed.
Extra steps but it seems this is the only way. Thanks Google
EDIT: after thinking about it I think a 512gb would be more than enough for my expected workdlow and would be a significant savings vs the 1tb
Yay This will be a better setup than you had.
I always build dual drive PCs; the OS, apps, DCIM folder and the temporary download folder go on internal memory.
All critical data goes on the data drive. This is then backed up redundantly to at least 2 hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC.
Do Not use DCIM in the name of photo folder on the SD card; there can only be one folder with that name.
I'm having the same problem with this scoop storage issue that Google has handed us My 1tb card is full of music that I can't access it worked fine on my Note 8 but it doesn't work hardly at all on my new Note 10 I can't even get a playlist to function right people have talked about editing Android manifest in Android studio Man that's so far above my ability but I wouldn't just format my card I know I bought the best one I could buy and I still have the problem and I've had my card for some time I hope someone comes up with a solution

Scoped storage is a mess. Back up the 1tb card's data at least twice on 2 different hdds, more backup is always better.
Or use a different SD card in the device.
With the test SD card format the card with the device (all data will be lost, etc, etc), then doing the data transfer through the phone load the data. See if that works.
Regardless it's best practice to leave the SD card in one device and not "share" it with other devices. Having other devices write to it can lead to card corruption.
Don't know if this will help or not. I'm still running on Android 9 and 10. Gookill sucks elephant balls bad now... no way I'll upgrade my N10+'s to 11 or 12, they're running too good as is.
Thank you for getting back with me I have a real hard time keep you track of stuff nowadays but I don't need the aggravation of this scoop storage stuff as it is I have to pay someone to root my phones anymore because I just can't do it.
I used to be fairly good at it but not anymore so dr.ketan is promising updates in April and unless the issue is addressed by him I'm going to go ahead and downgrade my Note 10 Plus to Android 9 or 10 wherever that point is I can avoid all this crap
I think I read on one of the posts that they didn't really see any speed difference between 9 and 12
I think 9 was what was on my phone when I bought it in December.
And it was my phone guy that brought it up to 12 and put on dr.ketan's ROM. But I am so used to backing up stuff to SD card that it's driving me nuts. And isn't that the idea of TWRP anyway to be able to back up to your SD card and restore if you screw things up? Anyway thank you again for getting back with me and if you hear of any news about a fix or patch that someone like me could put on to fix it other than having to have the skills of a developer let me know I appreciate it I'd even be willing to be a beta tester.
Take care Rick
