i have done a search and cant find the answer, can you tell me where i would find the root folder on a storage card ????
When you explore using Activesync you will see 'Explore My Windows Mobile Device' Click on that then storage card, your then in the root of the storage card. There is a not root folder as such, the root of the storage card just means not in a folder on the card.
that is what i thought, many thanks for the reply. I was just making sure, thanks

means in the card ,not inside any folder of the card/ or drive.
when i savew my wav file in my storage card in the root of it they never show up when i try to use them as a sound notification on my sms.
what does it mean when it tells you to copy or extract the files to the root of the storage card? what is the root of the storage card?
The first level of the storage card, I assume,
e.g. like on a computer, the root would be C:\
What program is it for?
it means you have to copy the files directly onto the card, and not within any folder
eg if your storage card is detected as G:/, you have to copy the files directly to G:/ and not in G:/randomfolder.
ah alright i get it now, thank you guys

any help?
I am trying to figure this out! I have a 32gb microsd card that has movies on it. I plugged it into my computer and just dragged the files over, then inserted the card into the tab. I powered the tab on and I'm using root explorer to search files but none of the files are showing anywhere. When I go into storage it shows the card is there and how much space is used/left but I cannot figure out how to view the files at all.
The card is formatted FAT32 and I'm using a completely stock Iconia a500 16gb
Acceessing your MicroSD
If you're in Root Explorer go all the way to the root folder then from there go to /mnt/external_sd and you should see all the stuff on your card. Hopefully that helps. Not sure why Acer named their internal storage SDCard but it's made it quite annoying.

My self as well.....
However AndSMB allows me to transfer files wirelessly over my LAN to the external and USB if installed, schwwet and free a must have.....
I found it... thought that having one root as sdcard which is really the internal memory and then the actual sdcard under the MNT folder was pretty dumb but what do I know I guess. lol
Thanks!!!
every tablet i've played with has always named the internal memory "sdcard".
i wish they would do the same as archos and mount the external sd card within the sdcard folder, so /mnt/sdcard/sdcard
this way most apps could see it.
For now the easiest solution is to make these folders bookmarks or make the /mnt folder your Home Folder. That way one click will get you to root or to any of the mounted media...
using a file explorer (I woud assume root explorer will work) it's at
/mnt/external_sd
usb is at
/mnt/usb_storage
internal memory for storage is at
/mnt/sdcard
Hi Guys

Thanks for the reply
How would that help ?
I thought that once you set up the adoptable storage that some system files are are copied over to the sd card. and also when installing some apps some/all of the files will be copied over to the sd card.
Now if i want to stop using the adoptable storage, how do i do that without messing with all the files that have been copied over to the sd card?
I am unable to transfer files from my phone memory to my sd card.
I am also unable to transfer files from my pc to sd card in the phone. I have no issue transferring files from pc to phone memory.
I can view and open files on the sd card and the phone is able to play music and movies stored on the sd card.
Can anyone help me fix this issue?
Thanks!
I don't have such problem at all.
Try different file browsers like ES File Explorer and Astro.
If those do not work, try and factory reset your phone and ask for a replacement if the problem still persists after that.

Does the phone read the sd card? Do you have anything on it to access? If not I would suggest formatting the sd card.

The phone reads all the files on the sd card. I get an error that says Access denied when i copy a file from the phone memory to any folder on the SD card...however I get no error when I copy the files to the root SD card. It's weird...not sure whats going on.
You need to use the stock file manager to copy to the sd card or from the sd to internal as this is a "security feature" since Android lollipop. If you wish to use any other file explorer you MUST be rooted...

I use ES File Explorer and it works - and I won't root until ZTE posts full factory roms for the US version.
I still think there is some issue with the sd card that can be solved by formatting it - if the phone won't move files to it and the pc recognizes the phone but not the sd card how did you get files on it in the first place?

Not true. I just used Solid Explorer to copy files from internal memory to the SD card. There was an extra procedure of selecting the sd card in what looks like the stock storage selection menu thing (that also has Drive, Downloads etc) which was apparently necessary for Solid Explorer to get the necessary permission. Maybe it doesn't work with old file explorer apps that haven't implemented this solution, but it definitely works with Solid Explorer without root.
