Hello everyone.
I have Galaxy S4 I9500 with Rom and root based on Android 4.3 .

Well first of all uninstall and install folder mount. And you should correctly mount the folder. First hit "+" icon on the top. A new window opens. There is Name, Source and Destination. Write the name of game( any one you like) in Name. Now tap on Source. This is the important step. You should properly browse the folder. If you have obb then browse like Android>obb>com.Nameofgame. After you reach the game file folder you will see nothing except up. When you reach here Click "Right" icon ( sorry i dont have that icon so i wrote in words). After that a new window will open and prompt you to create destination folder automatically. Hit yes. Then Hit "right" icon on the top. Then you will be prompted to move the file. Hit yes. After the file is moved Click the icon (something like pin and is white in colour) on the right to your name of game. It is for mounting the folder. If turns green then you have successfully mounted your folder

Hello. I have galaxy S4 m919. Phone has 16 gb, but getting low. One of my biggest files is, thumbnails cache. 1.2 gb. I tried to link that folder, but after rebooting, my external memory card shows up in file manager as the cache folder, and I cannot navigate out of that into my card. Any thoughts?

Android works only after first boot?

I have installed many different android versions , all are working good but when i reboot and go back to android command line says "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and and under that text "/# [52.9114021 ACR=3107 FL1256 RAAC=60" what that means ? how i can boot android many times without allways installing android again... before /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off it says mount: mounting/dev/block/loop0 on /data failed: invalid argument Failed failed to mount /data
When you start Android from SD card with Haret it creates an Android folder for cache and etc. When you reboot your phone and want to start Android again delete the Android folder from the SD card before you do it and it works fine again.
i just have one android folder and it has haret.exe and other files inside
One solution (not sure if it will work in your case - has been working perfectly for me) don't copy the files in the root - instead make a folder e.g AndroidTest and copy everything inside this folder. You have to change your startup.txt to reflect this change as followings:
set cmdline "rel_path=AndroidTest"
Now start your clrcad and haret.exe from within this folder.
OK , i found the problem ... i think , i have 32GB memory card (Sandisk) and it did not work , then i tried small 2GB (nokia) card and its working good ! 32GB has really slow writing speed but i dont know is that the problem...
i've noticed i can NEVER reboot. i'm gonna try deleting the android folder but that is kind of retarded... this seriously keeps me from playing with it.
in my experience if i try to reboot it will fsck forever on the sd card
is there a preferred method to restart the phone without corrupting the sd card ?
hi!
hi friend,
after you first reboot. if your back in winmo use your file explorer and explore your sd card. look for the folder name android and just delete.its a bug.
you are entirely correct. i tried it but didnt post back. that was the problem. i can successfully reboot android now! thank you
I tried this. I also have the gen y dualboot installed on my device. After I deleted the android folder and tried to reboot android, some where in the command line it says "cannot create android folder" then scrolls down and says rebooting in...5, 4, 3, etc. and it just restarts my phone, and doesnt load android. can someone help me?

DHD error Mounted ReadOnly

Hi all, I have seen ths problem cropping up and now it has happened to my little old DHD. I did nothing specific to start this error. I have popped my sd card in an adapter the tried to browse some files via my PC, the only folded which it cannot read due to being corrupt is a folder called Android.
Is there any solutions or will I need a format?
Thanks
Use disk kontrol
In explorer right click on the memory card and select properties.
Under the second tab choose the first button.
Make sure that the first box is selected.
Click start and let it run.
When it's finished, the memory card should be working again.

[Q] Stupid question on SD Cards

Just got my Iconnia last week and it's stunning.
However if I drag .apk's onto my 32Gb SD Card I can't seem to find them using Linda File manager.
Is there a particular programme I need to use to access it?
When I look into Storage it only seems to show my internal memory, howevermy Gallery DOES find my camera pics on the card so what am I doing wrong?
Dragging using what ?? on desktop PC ?? ( best is to copy & paste )
for when on the iconia... I downloaded "Astro file manager" ... there are many others...etc
your Ext_SDCard and USB storage is under the sub directory of /mnt
You should post in the "General" section...as this is the "DEV" section...
File Manager for Honeycomb.
I ran into this problem when I first got mine too.
The external sd card is actually showing in mnt/external_sd in your root folder
Basically this means that when you use astro file manager or root explorer and you open that instead of clicking on sdcard you click the folder listed as "mnt" then external sd
Thanks Guys.
Mods - Can you please move this to general Doh!

Emulated external storage problem?!?!?

I am srsly pissed off with this internal storage used as external....
What can I do in order to somehow bind the two internals in order to use my 32gb sd card as external?

You can use directorybind, an app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262, but doesn't work with google music. For that problem i used an modded version, google music+ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140756 , where you can change the storagelocation in-app.

Tried this app before but i failed everytime.... what EXACTLY should I do in order to bind these directories...?
On source data path goes the /sdcard thing and on mount path the target location ?
I wanna bind my internal sd to 32gb ext. card...

You can read it on the thread, but in short how to do it: make a folder on your external sd, for example DCIM (where photos are stored), then open directory bind. Tap settings button, then add new entry. Tap and hold source, then browse to the new folder DCIM on your external sd (real one), and tap select. Then tap and hold target source and browse to the old DCIM-folder and tap select. You can also transfer existing files, check that. Then tap "add".
On settings, check Bind on boot.
You will need to be rooted first btw...

Cant copy file FROM sd TO internal-phone

ANdroid 6.0.1 S7Edge
Geezuz....this shouldnt require a post to figure out, but.....
Because my good ol' KeepassDroid password app cannot write to a database file on the SD, I must move/copy the database file FROM the sd TO the internal phone storage when I get a new phone..
I plug the phone into the PC.
On the phone I drag down to notifications, select the USB Charging notification, change to "File Transfer"
Now the PC can see CARD and PHONE
I copy the file from the CARD to the PHONE
Disconnect.
On the phone I open my KeepassDroid app, navigate to tell it where the new database file is, and......
....wait for it.....
It shows up ON THE SD CARD
In anticipation of some of your well-meaning responses let me assure you that:
- I'm POSITIVE I'm looking at the file I JUST COPIED to PHONE and not the original file from SD ( I even renamed it in the PHONE location to ensure I wasnt screwin' the pooch there)
-I DO NOT want to get a NEW app because I don't want to re-enter dozens/hundreds of entries.
Its almost as thought Android 6.0.1 is allocating CARD space as "internal storage" space to "help" us stupid phone-users along (to which I say "stop helping")
Any sage advice?
