With my other module I have this option setup. At the moment I will let Download Manager handle the downloads. The Vessel application just got released for Android today, so you have to understand I just got this working. In the future I will surely look into allowing videos to be saved on the SD Card. It involves a custom solution because Download Manager (Built into Android) has issues on certain ROMs, which doesn't allow things to be saved to the SD Card. I will keep you updated when I implement the desired feature.
The module has been updated to support choosing your desired save location. You can now save to your SD Card or internal storage. Enjoy the module!
tried it today doesn't work. nothing happens on clicking the share button twice.
should play the video keep it playing? I don't see any downloading. and no files has been created in the folder I assigned, any update for this?

I think you will be only able to use this module on the first version of Vessel(1.0.367),you can find an APK to download anywhere.

I have the apk reinstalled and the filed on my external Micro SD. The app doesn't seem to find it. I tried it with it on the internal SD and that didn't work either.
Anyone know?
Is the movie file in a folder titled "Movie"?

umm........
brb
yes it is.
When I open the app I have a choice between:
LOGO.mp4 (Which creates a nasty loop)
or
avatar_trailer.3gp
oohhhh..... It seems you are missing the Avatar movie completely if those are the only 2 files there. The movie is called avatar.dcf
Open your file explorer and navagate to your sd card and make sure avatar.dcf is in the Movie folder if it is not then you are in trouble.
On my phone there is no logo.mp4 maybe you need to download astro file manager in the market and rename LOGO.mp4 to avatar.dcf (who knows maybe it got renamed somehow.
yeah I have avatar.dcf in the movie file. I found another Movie file on the internal SD. I'm copying now. We'll see what happens.
You can also play the movie through the default samsung video player. Have you tried that?
so after a reboot the app sees the movie now....it just won't play it.
What the heck?

yeah....its says file type not supported
Have you tried a factory reset? I have heard that that has fixed the issue for other people.
since you said the file was in another "movie file" on the internal SD (I guess u mean folder), when you "copied" the file like you said, sometimes it gets renamed the extension from .dcf to .3gp, in that case, when you tried to open the movie it will say file type not supported... make sure the extension is .dcf
i think one of the mods caused a malfunction (a2sd/lag fix/ext hack..) or During "bloatware cleanup" a critical DRM process/file was removed.
i have the problem: "licence expired" no fix yet, too bad..

SAVE YOUR GOOGLE PLAY MUSIC OFFLINE MUSIC TO EXTERNAL SDCARD
So I've been researching this issue for a long long time and have tried so many different approaches. I've finally found one that works! You can now save your google play music to your external sd instead of the internal sdcard.
This is based on the post found here. Please go and thank the original author. This will probably work on any phone.
So what this basically does is mount the google play music cache to a directory on your external SD on boot.
Requirements:
1. Root
2. external SD(obviously)
Steps
Using whatever task manager you have or just go into settings->apps->running, close google play music.
Open your file manager and browse to /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache and delete all of the files found in music dir and artwork dir in this directory. This is very important step. If you do not delete your cache then your files will take up space but will no longer be available after this process.
Browse to the root diretory of your external sdcard and create a directory called "MusicCache".
Browse to the root of your internal sdcard and create a text file called "MusicScript.txt".
Using your favourite text editor open the the file and past the following: "mount -o bind /emmc/MusicCache/ /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.Android.music/" and the save the file. Please note that if your using stock room, then /emmc/ might be /external-sd/. Please make sure to check the directory name for your external sd and replace /emmc/ with whatever your external sd directory is named.
Go to the google play store and install script manager - Smanager. Open smanager, and on first open you should see an option to select root, check that option and click ok and make sure to grant root to the app when the su dialog appears.
In Smanager browse to the root of your sdcard and click on and hold the "MusicScript.txt" to open a options dialog. Select "open as" and then select "Script/Executable".
Then Select "Su" and "Boot" and hit save.
You might not need this stop but it might solve some issues. Go to settings app->apps->google play music-> and hit clear data.
Reboot your phone.
Open up google play music and click on Choose on device music, and you should see the total space available equal to what is available on your external SD Card
(Optional) Hamster dance.
Note: While downloading all of your music offline you may want to go to the settings app->developer options->check Keep Awake to keep the phone awake while charging so that the phone won't go to sleep. I did this so that I could finish up the download while keeping my phone charger connected. You should definitely turn this option off after your done.

Thanks! I've been trying to figure out how to do this. I figured I'd just have to wait for Google to get their act together. But external storage has clearly not been a priority for them.

I'm glad I could help someone. I've been mostly a lurker on this board. But I've benefited so much that I felt I had to give back once I got this working. I've been at this issue for a long long time.
BTW, did it work for you?
Awesome, I'm going to give this a try when I get home from work today. I'll let you know if I got it working. Very cool of you to share this.

Can't get it working
I'm on a htc evo lte and i cant seem to get this to work. In the root directory my sd cards are sdcard and sdcard2 but sdcard is mounted to /mnt/sdcard and sdcard2 is mounted to /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd how would the script look for me?

Just use the following instead of what I have posted for step 5.

Let me know if works out for you.

ah, you mean, settings->storage->storage configuration->layout configuration. But that moves all of your apps/media to external storage. The method I posted just moves gmusic cache which the solution I've been looking for.

It seems like everyone has gotten this working except me! I was able to create the symlink using your script, and I even see the cache directory on the external SD card. The odd issue is that the cache directory remains completely empty no matter how many songs I store offline. Even when I remove the symlinks, the files are not in /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music. I have gone so far as to factory reset my phone twice (in two different ways) and the issue still persists. After factory resetting, my main goal was to just find where the offline files are being stored so I didn't even create symlinks.
I am using a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 with the stock rom.
Can anyone help me with this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!
Can you first confirm that files are available offline in music. Simply check On device only in the pop menu when you hit the menu button.

Confirmed... I have also been using it since Google music came out. Directory bind is pretty awesome as it let's you redirect lots of data to wherever you want it. I use it for a few games also.
This is probably a stupid question, but I'm wondering where the actual folder location for the Downloads app/button that is in the app drawer is. Well, it shows up in the app drawer but I'm sure it's not an app. I'm running 4.4.2. Nothing I've ever downloaded goes there. It always ends up on the sd card in the download folder.
So what is the app/button good for? And is there a way to redirect downloads to go there? Seems like an easy way to check what you downloaded without using a file manager. If it only worked.
Downloads app is a download manager. You can see your current downloads and the finished ones there (not every download though...Chrome downloads appear there, for example), install or delete downloaded apps. But your files still go to sdcard download folder.
I was using one of those apps that hides your photos. Well I guess the developers decided to delete the app but not tell people or something. I looked thru my storage and found the folder where the pics are but they are all in text mode they are not .jpg files. How do I get the pictures back?? I had over 900 pictures in there. Some that are irreplaceable and very important. Is there a way to get them back or no??
I don't remember the name of the app. The icon just says Android Safe.
Hey there, thought of some suggestions that might help:
1) Check if the only change to files is that they were changed from .jpg to .txt
If that is the case then just batch change the files extention back to what they were via PC. See:
https://www.isumsoft.com/windows-10/change-file-extension-for-one-or-multiple-files.html
2) Try to locate the program. Enter Google Play - - > My apps & gamea - - > Library.
Apps previously installed can most of the time be still installed even if they were removed from Play Store.
3) Try to look for an APK of the app on some app hosting sites like APK Mirror and APKPure.
Good luck buddy.

If I plug phone into PC, I can't find the folder that has the files in it.
If I am on phone and I look for folder, it's in emulated folder, sdcard, etc etc.
But I don't have an sd card in my phone. It doesn't take one.
And I looked in play store, apps, library, installed apps, and it's not there. Yet the icon is on my phone, and I can open the app.

From my limited knowledge the "sdcard" & "emulated" are just android naming conversions for local storage, ect... It doesn't necessary mean that it is located in SD card or the folder is actually emulated.
Regarding Phone:
* If you still have the app installed (I kinda didn't understand it from your og message), you can find its name by going to (Vague description incoming): Settings --> Installed apps --> Look for your app & press it --> The name should appear now on top, below the icon.
* From here you can try clearing cache and see if it helps and even clear all of the apps data.
Regarding PC:
* Make sure you are connected as MTP storage (Can be changed from notifications).
* If you still can't see it then try enabling the display of hidden files & folders on your PC:

Good luck.
I am encountering issues with Wolf Launcher. 1. I had to uninstall and reinstall a movie app, but the launcher displayed multiple copies of the app. I could not remove the copies, even after verifying that there was only one copy on my firestick and then restarting the firestick. My only recourse was to move the copies to hidden apps. 2. The delete folder option does not work. After deleting a folder that I created it still remains in my home section. Is there a new release of the launcher that has addressed my issues, or is there a step that I have missed?
What is the name of this movie app? I'm using version 0.1.9.

I could not reproduce both of these points on my Fire TV Stick 4K and version 0.1.9 of Wolf Launcher. See Video in file attachment.
PS: However, a folder can actually no longer be deleted after a long period of time. Unfortunately, the only thing that helps is to delete the data of the app in the app info so that the created folder disappears again.

I will make the necessary changes based on your advice. Thank you for your assistance!
Easy install for newest version of wolf launcher on my fire tv cube. Loving widget space and the grid guide button on the newest remote gets me back to linear tv. I would pay Amazon $40 a year to replace the ads with a space for widgets!!!
I can confirm the folder deletion bug in the 0.1.9-wolf launcher, but the fix is easy:
1. Unhide all apps.
2. Open the folder.
3. Move all items in the folder to the built-in Applications Section.
4. Delete the folder.
5. Rehide duplicate apps while they are in the Applications Section.
