Ok, I don't wanna screw this up.. I have the 2Gb card Verizon kindly provided but I have upgraded to a Class 6 16Gb A-data card. I have some info on the 2Gb card, do I need to move that info to my PC and then transfer it or does unmounting save that info on the Internal storage? Probably a noob question but I'm trying to make a smooth transition.
Save it to your pc then copy it to your new card. Unmounting is similar to ejecting or safely removing on a pc

Google the program SyncBack Free. Its excellent at moving large directories and files.
Easiest way.
Connect to computer, copy everything off sd card, copy everything to new sd. easy as.
Yep, connect to a pc, copy all from old SD card to pc, then from pc to new SD card. Worked for me all the time.
I use simple backup to keep a regular backup of my SD Card by mounting USB to my ubuntu box, so install your new card in the DHD then restore Simple backup
So I want to format my sd card because I have a 16gig sd and put all my apps on the phone and its still half gone. I have no music on the sd. My question is, if I format/erase the sd card will it screw up my rom managment? Also in my root exsplorer there are files I am unsure wut they are. Any thoughts?

I want to upgrade to a bigger memory card, but most of my games and apps are installed to the memory card. Would I just plug in up to my computer and copy all the folders over? Or move the apps to my phone, switch cards and then move them to the new memory card?
and would I still keep all my app settings and game save files?
Just copy one card to the next it will work just the same

Yup, just done this - replaced the 8GB card that came with my handset with a 32GB one.....plugged both cards into my PC and copied all contents from 8GB to 32GB then chucked it in the phone - simples
Make sure you copy hidden folders too, and android.secure, thats the folder with apps you've moved to SD card
what about if i have sd card partition? i have 16gb and planning to upgrade to 32.. but i have 1gb partition because of link2sd, but my pc cannot detect that partition, what would i do?
Ude a position manager e.g. easeus to copy hidden partitions

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.

Thank you for your reply.
Yes. It is Ex FAT format. Which format should I format it to? Ex FAT or just the FAT format.
It is not about applications. The card just gets undetected after some time and nothing can be accessed including music and images. I have to unmount it and mount again for the device to detect the SD card.
Format your SD Card on your phone its self. Go to settings, storage and than SD Card and format it.

Thanks mate.. Followed your instructions... Working fine as of now.
Hi,
I was moving files from internal memory to micro SD card, the moving failed and I suddenly lost browsing the SD card. Tried accessing via computer and phone after reboot, it is asking to format.
Any suggestions on how to recover the partition?
Is my SD card faulty?
