My phone is Doogee DG800 and i didn't make any software modifications and i'm total android noob.So, I've downloaded the apk+sd content for my GPU - Mali. Readme file says that i have to move sd content to sdcard/Android/obb. On my phone's sd card i have folder called "data", instead of obb. Same on my phone's memory. Also my phone's internal memory is diplayed as "sdcard0". Sd card's directory is diplayed as "sdcard1". Anyway, i copied the sdcontent folder to my sd card's folder "data" and installed the apk file. After i ran it, started to download some required files (604mb is exact size). Then the application crashed. Please, help me! I don't know even if this is the right place for my thread.

Hey guys.I have a memory card in my phone and I want is to transfer the data files of a game to it.Normally the path of those files is "Android\data\the folder with the files".I have noticed that androd has also created a folder called "android" and inside it a "data" folder on my memory card.So I moved the files to "external_SD\Android\data\the folder with the files".However it didn't work.I have also move the "apk' to "USB storage space" as I'm running gingerbread but still nothing.Any idea how to solve it?Thanks.
PS:My device is Samsung galaxy s plus i9001.
I used directory bind on my Gameloft files and again on my odd files. All has worked well and the moved programs work. When I go into the phone's internal memory, I still see the files in their original directories and properties shows the file sizes as their original file size. When I select the folder on the internal memory, long press for properties, and it says like 1.7GB. I go to the app manager shows the files as the original size also. However, when I go to settings, storage, it shows my internal memory reduced by 1.7GB. After moving the files, should there be a "ghost" image still on internal memory? I see the files on the SD card and under properties, measure the same 1.7GB.
What is going on? Is this the way it operates?
Its working well, I'm leaving it alone, but just want to know.
My carrier is MetroPCS. Since this phone only has 1.8GB of internal memory, I have a 16GB microSDHC card for external storage, but I can't move anything from sdcard0 to my external sd card in File Manager because nothing shows up on sdcard0. I want to move my pictures from sdcard0 to my external sd card, but nothing shows up under the "pictures" folder in sdcard0. I can't just make my storage option the SD card because when I do that, it's still saving on the internal memory, because apparently the phone thinks that sdcard0 is the SD card. So I need a way to change the storage option to my external card or a way to uncover these files that are hidden somehow.
I'm operating on Jellybean 4.1.2 and 3.0.31 kernel.
@pennyboard420 Welcome to XDA forums.
Your camera pictures are actually saved in the "DCIM/thumbnails" folder and not the "Pictures" (only my screen-shots are saved in the "Pictures" folder) folder and no this folder won't open with File Manager. You need a different file browser, like Root Browser that lets you see hidden files/folders. On some of them you will need root access to modify or change these files and folders.
You can't set and change your default storage location from sdcard0 to the external sdcard natively.
You would need to install an app like Link2sd or a swap script, again the device needs to be rooted.
Another Solution

I've tried your solution but wasn't able to get it rooted because some drivers that I needed couldn't be run on the Surface RT tablet that I have due to the tablet only allowing Microsoft developed software to run. However, I have found an alternate solution: Instead I connected my LG L9 to the tablet, opened up the DCIM/Thumbnails folder and manually copied all my pictures into the DCIM/100LGDSC folder of my external SD card.
Chances are you probably already know about this, but just putting it out there.
Thanks again.
My galaxy s5 started showing memory full when all storage programs said there was about 5 gb left.
I downloaded foldermount and it said it found the issue so it was going to repair it.
Well after I rebooted. The internal sd card(phone memory) is not mounting.
When connected to the PC, it shows 128mb.
on ES FIle explorer SDCARD shows "???" and when I attempt to open it ask what file I want to open it with, but with the program storage analyzer it finds the "data" folder just fine and lists all the files and folders within it.
In the phone settings options, it can show the amount of memory being used along with the media, mp3, apps, so the Folder is still there along with all the info, it is simply not mounting properly?
Thank you.
UPDATE: I found the path of where all my files are at, but the phone is not mounting it as the internal storage?
It is located at data/media/0 and mnt/sdcard0 or mnt/sdcard1 are missing.
* Aside from Phone being rooted, there were no other modifications
* Phone is running on original OS(as opposed to roms or such)
*There is not an external sd card in the phone
Folder mount will not do anything for you really without an SD card. After you use it to clear space you need to unmount all the folder it mounted to view what is actually in the folders. If not it will show the folder that it is linked to and look like it never worked. Changing your system data to SD data in your case keeps it in internal memory and does not free it up. You need to use folder mount with a SD card for it to help you. Saved me over 500Mb with it on my s5

Sorry, long story short,
My phone mnt/sdcard and sdcard links are no longer there. Is there a way to recreate the links? Certain apps are still able to function because they are using the actual link, device/media/ect, ect, /0/ folders as opposed to mnt/sdcard/
I saw on another forum that
su
echo mkdir /storage/sdcard0 > /data/local/userinit.sh
chmod 700 /data/local/userinit.sh
reboot
May help, but not sure if it is only for roms and not for original OS.
On another forum there was talk about recreating a syslink?
Solved:
Simply went to "system/bin" and erased the "sdcard" file and renamed the file "sdcard.backup" to "sdcard". Rebooted and it solved the issue.
Android Nougat's own basic "File Explorer" doesn't reflect proper storage space!?
So here's the deal.
Since Nougat doesn't allow direct editing of SD card by 3rd party file managers, I started to use Android's own basic file explorer. (I created a shortcut using an app from the store).
Nougat's own basic File Explorer is simple, basic, clean and works well, except: After you move a file between internal storage and SD Card, although the files are moved, the free storage space don't reflect that change.
And the only fix to this is a restart. After a restart the File Explorer shows the proper Storage Space. But the issue still remains if you move any files again.
-----
So does anyone have any idea why this is and how to fix this?
If not, are there any File Managers that can edit the SD Card (External Storage)?
Thnx for any help!
No one has any idea?
