I love my keyboard dock. It's very easy to use, but one thing that's annoying is SD memory cards won't show up in the Gallery when they are mounted. The mount point is /Removable/SD/
I can copy the photos over, but I'd like to be able to view and upload them to the web from the card.
Anyone know of a solution?

When using a microSD in the TF itself, the photos show up in the gallery app. Is this different from using the dock's SD reader? I don't have the dock.
If yes, THIS is your solution as it was mine. I use the microSD with adapter in my Canon G12 and put the microSD directly into my TF's microSD reader, start the gallery and view the photos from the microSD card.
PS: The microSD images showed up in the gallery after opening one of the images with the file manager app.
Thanks for the suggestion. I actually have one of those adapters. I'd like to be able to keep my 16GB microSD in the TF at all times and use my 16GB SD card in the camera as well. I can always dump the photos onto my home server for safe keeping.
I do have an 8GB micro-SD that I could probably use in the Oly Pen camera, but again I do like having my 16GB card in there for the HD video.
I hope Asus comes out with a firmware update that addresses this issue. I'm sure I won't find many iPad lovers in here, but it sure was nice being able to import photos from the SD card to the gallery. The dongle sure did suck. Maybe I'll have to simply breakdown and get a 16 or 32gb micro-sd card.
Thanks again

Ok so i have a dell streak that i busted the lcd on. I went and bought a new phone and theres some stuff i need off the streak. I cant see anything on the screen so i was wondering if its possible to connect to the phones internal sd card from a computer, like u normally do with th external sd card. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
You can remove the inner sd and hook it up to a pc, but it's partitioned and formatted differently.
If you reformat and repartition it to work like a normal card it wont be able to be used to boot a streak anymore.
If you wanna grab your contents off it you'll prob do it easiest though linux, though i dont know the specifics
What are you trying to get off of your Streak?
If you set the phone up with gmail your contacts will be backed up there and even if you don't have an Android phone now you can export them from the gmail web page and then probably import them into your new phone.
This thread or one of the screen replacement guides shows how to disassemble the phone to get to the card, you can also make the card accessible like this. I have notched a non-working Streak as was done in the picture and it only takes a few minutes with an exacto/razor knife even if you are being careful.
How you get to the card depends on what you want to do with it now that it's broken and how badly you want access to the card. The partitions are formatted ext3 and can be accessed with a linux live cd/dvd once you remove it from the phone if you don't have a linux box setup.
edit: if you notch the cover the internal sd card slides out to the left if you are looking at the phone from the back with the flash at the top.
I do actually have an android phone... I need my notes from ak notepad mostly, and other things would be nice to have. I figure if i could get to the contents i could prolly get the notes as theyre prolly in .txt format or something. If it would be easier from a nandroid backup, i nandroided the morning the phone broke

It appears that AK notepad saves the notes in a proprietary format and to get plain text you have to export the notes to your sd card. See their FAQ. You might want to email them and ask the best way to recover your notes.
Well i guess i'll try removing the internal sd since its gonna be taken apart soon ayway when my replacement screen comes in
Thanks for the help!!

Remote web desktop from the market gives you access to the internal sd's contents also

Ok so i have the internal card out. Tried putting it in a card reader and the computer asks to format it. Is there any program or anything i can do to be able to read it?

You have to connect the card to a computer that can read the ext3 file system. Sounds like you connected it to a windows box. You can download a linux live CD/DVD and boot that from your CD or DVD drive and you will probably be able to plug it in and see the contents.
I recommend Linux Mint or you can try this, which is an application that allows windows to read ext3. I would not use the windows application to write to the card.
I tried both ways you said to try marvin02. Linux Mint wouldn't read the card reader for some reason. The link you gave for the windows ext reader doesnt work with windows 7 so i googled windows 7 ext3 and found a program that works. Ran it and its reading the card. I installed ak notepad on my new phone and tried to copy everything i could over and see if somehow it would read the old notes, no luck. I think the way my new phone installs apps and data is different than the old one and has a different folder structure.
Is there any other solution anyone could think of?
Random, but i've got two books gifted to me on Kobo, which is linked to my HTC Reader, but i can't get them to show up..only books i BOUGHT show up. this is so stupid, if i've got a book gifted to me, it's mine, but the HTC Reader app seems to think it's not. i'm using a View, btw, but i assume it's the same on the flyer. any way around this?
Usually when the reader detects a new ebook,epub,etc, it updates the reader to include the new title. Is that happening on your view with other books?

nope, doesn't work with gifted books..
i had to do a workaround. goto kobo website, download the epub file and download the adobe reader..then goto the file where it saves the epubs, transfer that to the sd card folder called "digital editions," and then reset it and they'll show up. only thing that isn't showing up though is the cover art.
Has anyone heen able to use the nook for android app on a rooted Nook tablet? It will install and load, but it will not display any books. None of the books are DRM.

Not sure if this will help, but I run CM7 through an SD card. I have the Nook for Android App, and the books need to go on the SD->Nook->MyDocuments folder in order to show up.
The nook for android app will not work on the stock nook OS. You have to use the reader app that came with it. With that said, you can still sideload books (spun files for instance) by placing them in the appropriate directory.

When I put them in the MyDocuments folder they show up and are readable, but no title and the book cover looks like a light blue e-reader. I'm on SD CM7.

So, before you tranfer them to MyDocuments, go ahead and convert them to .epub (does not matter if they are already in epub format) using Calibre. While in Calibre, make sure you download the meta information for the book, including the cover.

To add book covers, try using Calibre on the PC to add the covers to the epub file. When I did this, they showed up when I put them on the SD card.

I've had mixed luck with that. Some of the files I converted came across beautifully, while some came across with most of the advanced features (cover art, table of contents, etc.) missing. Any ideas on what I missed?
Hello guys,
First of all, I apologize for my poor English.
I own a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet running Lollipop 5.02. This tablet has ability to move apps to the SD card with no problem at all.
So here is the thing: I currently using the app Zinio to collect and read my favorites magazines. I currently have around 100 issues stored in the internal card of the tablet and I would love to move them all to the external SD card.
Problem is that the app in itself is correctly moved to the SD card BUT all the app data (that is, all the downloaded magazines) remains in the internal memory.
Before the release of Lollipop, I emailed Zinio asking why the magazines could not be stored the SD card, just like the Spotify app does. They replied me that this the way the app works an there was nothing that could be done to make some room in the internal memory apart from deleting some magazines…
So, anyone here using the Zinio app found a way to store the magazines in the external SD card?? (I tried moving the whole magazine directory to the SD card, but as soon as I tried to open one issue, the app downloaded it again in the internal memory…
I realize that this is a limitation of the app and has nothing to do with Android in itself, because in the case of the Spotify, the app automatically downloads the music to the SD card…
Any ideas??
Thanks
Has anyone managed to bypass this stupid app limitation by rooting, and/or using apps like foldermount, or similar?
I too want to have lots of magazines stored on my external sd card, and not be limited by my tablet's internal storage capacity (16gb).
Hi grenness,
I have emailed Zinio at least 3 times regarding this issue and they always came back with the same bullsh**t: «there is no way to transfer the magazines to the sd card , if you want to make some room for new issues, you will have to delete some old ones»...
What a bunch of genius those Zinio folks...
I wonder why the Spotify app have no problems at all to store the downloaded music in the SD card and Zinio does not want to...
In the meantime, I cancelled all my subscriptions with Zinio.

So frustrating. I find I have to remove mags as soon as I've read them.
Same issue here. Zinio takes up all my space. Bought sd card for my galaxy tab to no need.
Has there been any movement on this issue? My Galaxy Tab S2 is critically low on storage because of the Zinio content and it has a half-empty SD card just begging to be used!
