For me it's also working fine, tried Banshee, Rhythmbox and Clementine so far. Is your SD card mounted when you plug in your phone ? Can you access it ?
What kernel is your arc running on ?

Create a file in the root of the sd card called ".is_audio_player" with the following text
Code:
audio_folders=music
folder_depth=2
output_formats=audio/mpeg,audio/mp3,audio/x=aac

Only android devices running 2.2 froyo can install apps onto sd card. Root has nothing to do with it

You can delete everything from sd card. I backed up mine and then formated it. If you want to be sure you can use phone with SD card taken out for some tkme and you'll see everything will work with no problems

ICS CM9 still in early beta if not alpha! so let the devs do their work - if the first RCs are out you can start scream and bug around.
It works fine for me. Is it telling you "app isn't installed" or anything like that? Or is it giving you an error saying something about USB mounting or SD card access? If you tell me what's up, I can probably help~

to temp solve, open es explorer, root explorer and mount the "/" folder to RW
once you do that, close the app, go to market and down the xda prem app...
it should be able to download now

Xda installs directly to SD card, so u might have an issue with sdcard storage on the 0202 build, try the latest? Think its 0207

You just have to change the settings from r/o to r/w under the / folder
This problem started with 2/5 I believe

Cool thank you very much.
Also can we PLEASE get "adhoc Wifi not working" on the bugs sheet? I can't use ICS online at home without it.

[Q] App 2 SD

I would like to save files for big games like gameloft etc. on my external sd card. But this isn't possible. On the S3 you could relize this with directory bind or Foldermount, but on the s4 it doesn't work.
any ideas?
That's becouse your device might not be rooted.
When there is an easy root for the s4 and you are rooted directory bind will work.
No, my device is rooted with Su and busybox installed!
Well I started testing with directorybind. It doesn't work for some reason. I'm rooted, using the same method as on my note 2 but for some it doesn't work? Wth?
Anyone having the same issue?

I've got a similar problem. I used my own scripts on an SD card and got Script Manager to execute them on boot. Now SM does not run the mount commands.....not from the SD card and not from /data with correct permissions either. I can ssh into the device and run them just fine but SM can't to it. It DOES execute a mkdir and a sleep command as the end of the script so the script runs WITHOUT the mount commands....not sure what to make of that but could be related.
Did the two people who rooted above tty folder mount?

Why? Because they like phones with ridiculously low amounts of internal storage?

I don't think ANYTHING is working on the SGS4 at the moment. Devs are working on this. Thanks for nothing Google and Samsung...
The dev of Foldermount is working on the issue.
Tried that app and that app actually works until you reboot your phone and then it's gone again for some reason
I would settle with an internal to sd swap like on the s3 and note2.
But that ain't done yet so we'll have to wait.

You don't give much details , but if you have the latest android update that is your problem since Kitkat does not let you use the card on the regular basis. To fix this issue your phone must be rooted to apply fix with an app from the store.

Same thing was happening to me when I had a 64GB generic sdcard. I got a 16GB sandisk and problem solved.
