Has anyone had issues running the nextapp SD fix? Had no problem in the past, installed the nk2 software and bought a 128 gig card but now it just hangs when I run the app and I can't write to my external card. Yes rooted. Thanks fellas.
Got it working with xposed KK full SD card access. No clue why the nextapp SD fix didn't work.

Why do you want to re-name the SD card?
Unmount and remount the SD card, perhaps? Or format via recovery, if rooted?
Is it SDXC or SDHC?
SDXC might cause problems sometimes - exFAT, FAT32 and all that jazz.

screwed!
I could access mine. Just go to mnt/EXTSDcard.
I can't move apps to it though, like everyone else...
My daughter's rooted and S off Droid Incredible 4G LTE is giving her an insufficient memory error when trying to download certain apps. She has a 32 gigabyte Micro SD card and is running Cyanogenmod 10.2.1. Anybody have any ideas on how to remedy this issue? I suspect we need to run certain apps from the SD card or move data over to it. I am just not sure how to do it.
This is a limitation due to the partitioning of the device, only 1GB can be used for apps and when apps are moved to SD they are moved to the internal "SD card" partition not the real SD card. There is a swap but I'm not sure if it works with CM 10.2.1 and nothing has been worked on it in about a year. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985658

I may give it a try on my backup DING 4g. I do see that for the latest version of the script there is no reverse....so hopefully I wont brick it. I wonder what happens to existing apps when you run this?
There is a reversal posted on the op...
I installed it today on my existing phone (viper rom & infernal kernel) and so far all my apps are working. Only change I've had to so far is update my gallery links.
Hello
I own Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 and it is rooted. I recently purchased a class 10 Sandisk Micro SD card with 64 GB capacity. I was very happy that I did but my happiness did not last long when I have come to know that 3rd party apps do not have write permission in Kitkat. After some research I was successful to make the SD card writable to 3rd party apps by modifying the permissions.xml file.
Everything seems to be fine at this time but it was not actually. The SD card when seen under storage in settings would show me that it is mounted with 62.5 GB capacity and 60 GB free. But when I try to browse the files in SD card, there are nothing. Apps saved in SD card do not open and I am also unable to capture images from camera to SD card storage.
I thought may be unmounting the SD card and mounting it back would work and it worked but after a while the same problem. My device shows that it has mounted an SD card but cannot access anything saved in it. So, I have to unmount and mount SD card every time and this is very much annoying.
Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks you for your time.
I just bought a Z2 2 weeks ago, updated with the latest Lollipop update. And I found our that im having issue with moving data to my SD card. It was successful in moving data however when I tried to use them it seems that it was corrupted like apps - I cant open it, music - not able to play and pictures - cant show.
Ive rooted my phone already and tried sdfix however it seems its not working. How can I store/use my sd card. Btw I have a 64gb sd card. any recommendation to fix it.
and additional everytime I rebooted my Z2 my apps installed on sd card gets corrupted.
need help please..
That's odd.. I've never experienced that. Maybe you have a defective SD card? Have you tried copying files to and from your computer with the SD card?

What format is the sdcard I had problems with an sd formatted exfat
Hey guys I have a problem with 32GB Transcend microSD card on my VF Smart Ultra 6, which has a pretty much clean version of Android 5.0.2. I used FAT32 first and then without any error or notification, the apps I moved to SD card just disappeared from the system. All other files on the card were perfectly accessible from the filemanager though. When browsing through the app list the apps were present, but had a grey icon with SD on it. I had to reboot phone for them to appear again. I formated the SD card with exFAT, which is working perfectly fine, however when I want to grant SD write permission to filemanager the SD card is not present in the list. Is this a bug, how can I fix this?
Thanks.

There ara some fixes for this problem, but you have to get root and custom recovery

Aww, that sucks , so this is a known bug. Any chance this might be fixed in 5.1? Vodafone promised to bring 5.1 to this phone.
I found a fix eventually. I reformated SD card to exFAT and then fixed write permissions for SD card by using root and SD Card Fix app. You cannot grant write permissions to exFAT without root for some reason (some dumb reason really). This problem never happened again on exFAT.
