I have Galaxy S 4 I9500 and my problem is i could not find backup file saved internal SD Card using ES File manager and the others. The other problem is After deleting folder from internal SD Card Storage capacity do not change. I delete 1 GB data but capacity SD Card same.
Here is the explanation.
First of all i rooted Android 4.3 and then install Rom Manager Program from Goggle Store to backup my all info. Room Manager did not work normaly and i tought that it was due to KNOX. Then i install Philz Touch Coustom Rom and remove KNOX. Then i tried to backup my all sistem via Philz Touch Coustom ROM and it worked. Everything was normal. When i run the Room Manager i could not find backup file to restore. I checked the internal SD Card storage capacity and i saw that it was about 3 GB less. It means Backup file saved to internal Sd Card but i could not find by Room Manager. I decide to find this backup file using ES File manager and the others. I could not find Backup Folder or any Backup file. I tried to one more time have backup via Philz Touch Coustom Rom and this time choosed backup to external SdCard. It worked normaly and and after booting android i found the file using ES File manager and the others but not Room Manager. Then i decided to copy this folder to internal Sd Card to check will i see the same folder in internal SD Card. I relized that i have not enought capacity in internal sd card after backup which i could not find folder but storege size 3 GB less. Any how i tried to copy but after coping 1 GB capacity was full and could not copy all files. It was interesting that when i deleted the copied file about 1 GB, storage capasity of internal SD Card did not change. It was full.
How can i solve the problem? Internal SD Card full but i can not see saved backed file and after deleting file capacity do not change.
Best Regards,

I am having issues of slowness on my Acer A500 and I wanted to back it up and do a factory restore. I read the forums and learned Titanium is a preferred backup app. I rooted my tablet and that seemed to work ok. I D/L Titanium ok but when I try to do a backup it says insufficient memory. I then learned that it is trying to backup to internal memory and not the SD card, which has plenty of space. If I try to backup a single app it places it in internal memory.
If I look at Titanium overrview it shows /mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup as the backup directory. At the bottom it shows Ext. SD card: 67.0 GB (57.0 GB free).
When I go to Acer settings/ apps / Titanium it shows SD card 0.00B.
If I look at settings / storage/ it shows SD card 53.17 GB available.
So I am stuck, unable to backup and procede with with my planned reset. Any suggestions?

Already set to the SD card. I then deleted the TitaniumBacckup folder in internal memory and when I go to Backup folder location I get a red error message "The current backup location ("/mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup") cannot be accessed.
It has a DETECT! /mnt/sdcard radio box to click on but it only finds internal folders. I clicked on detect the whole device but it does not detect the TitaniumBackup folder on the ext sd card.
I also tried using a 16gb sd card from my mp3 player and that did not work either.
Create the backup folder with yr chosen file explorer. Then open tb and choose search for backup folder.

I have just updated my Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) to Android 5.0 using Odin 3.10.6 in these two days.
After upgrading to Android 5.0, I found that Titanium Backup cannot backup to External SD, and it said the External SD is not writable.
I have also tried some other backup apps, they also cannot access to External SD.
As I know that in Android 5.0, apps can already access to External SD...and I have tried SDFix, which cannot fix the problem.
Any idea what happen? What can I do to allow Titanium Backup to get access to the External SD?

TB pro backs up my 5-0 to ext SD.
Try formatting your ext sd card .

I'm having the same problem and I don't think it's with the ext SD card, I'm pretty sure it's with TB.
I used the TWRP app to fix it.
I think custom ROM is the only solution.
Above answer is 100% wrong .
i used dr ketans sd fix it worked for me ,,might have to reboot after and rescan folder or make a titanium backup folder in ex sd
Need to be rooted. Modify platform.xml Here the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20869996&postcount=7
so i opted for the 16gb moto pure and am now getting no available storage when trying to download a app in the play store. After looking into what is taking up all my space it seems twrp is 4.25 gigs. Is there anyway to have that on the sd card? I have never had this problem on older phones that were 16gigs with a sd card.
When you're in TWRP and doing a backup (Nandroid), there is the option that says "Storage: Internal Storage". If you click on that, you can change it to your external SD card. In the mean time, you can copy the backup folder from your device storage to your external storage. If there isn't a folder called TWRP yet, you can make it (or cut & paste the entire TWRP folder on your device to the SD card). Or you can just do a new Nandroid and see how it works. It usually takes a few minutes longer to backup to your SD card compared to your internal storage.
Normally, pre backup, your TWRP folder should be VERY small.
You can change your storage when flashing ROMs or apps, depending on where you've stored them... Also, if you ever restore a backup and freak out because you can't find it, make sure you have the proper storage selected.

I hadn't used TWRP in ages. I got my phone yesterday and inadvertently backed up to my internal card. I went back in and then saw the option to choose my external card. I ran another backup to the external card and I was amazed that the backup took less time going to my external card than it did to my internal card. I don't mean a little faster, it was quite faster. You would think the internal would be much faster.
I am using Xolo Q700s Cynogenmod Lollipop
I installed Cynogenmod 12.1 V3 stable. In that they had made inbuilt feature that External SD CARD is loaded as internal memory i.e SDCARD0. I want to chnage that because as I don't have any SD Card I cannot operate my phone. eg xender says sd card disabled and don't open. bluetooth says : transfer unsuccessful as sd card not found to save files. Cannot save books or data from app as download fails as my phone has no external sd card.
I tried changing fstab file but when i reboot the phone it gets back to default settings. I searched a lot but cannot find way to transfer internal sd card from external to internal memory. I can't understand how to change this setting in cynogenmod
Pls Help.
if possible reply at [email protected].
Edit 1 : When I checked fstab file in /system folder, the command was written as in last 2nd line: sdcard1:8 non-removable. What this is.
Pls help me, I cannot use my phone, cannot install and run apps and my phone is of no use to me.
I am new to miui rom, always using stock or custom android roms.
I am using it for now as cant see a rom I like the look of but having trouble with the way it uses the storage.
I have an SD card but it appears to see the internal and SD as one whole storage location - is that true?
I download files and the inbuilt file navigator is a pain, but the storage location is internal, but i cant copy to this or from this on my PC. i have to use ES file explorer to copy the files from internal to a location on SD (as it shows as separate storage in this app) and then i can copy from // to the SD card..
how do i amend this? i just want to download and copy to PC if needed with ease.. (when i tried making the download location on the sd card the files never actually saved, after the download completed i checked the location but the file was not there).
