Cant save to sd card / ext sd files copying to computer before opening

Is there a way to prevent this? If I try to open any office documents from the external SD card on the S3, it will open it as a separate file in a temporary folder in windows. I am not able to save as back to the SD folder. It will say Read Only. I can not even write to the SD card if I have the file that is in the SD card open. I believe this is the way MTB works, but on my DroidX, I did not have this problem. Is there a solution to this?

[Q] help with storage on cm10

Hi sorry but i have a question, why is my external sd card is recognised as internal storage(first pic) also and i do not have any option to unmount it.(second pic)
Also i have my files on my external sd card in the file 'sdcard' on my phone however i also have a file called sd_ext(empty) which i presume is the external sd card. Therefore, is it normal to have it like that? and how to i know which is my internal and external respectively. Thanks for the help in advance.
i can view all the files and they are recognised by my phone but i just want to know if there is a fix for this.

this must be a systems bug. It´s the same to me and all others. You can ignore that.
also and i do not have any option to unmount it.(second pic)
you can unmount your sd card in the phone settings (it must be settings/storage/SD Card unmount)

Try to use another root file explorer (for ex.: https ://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=de )

First of all: you don´t have to use another phone for making screenshots. Just press Power for 2 Sec. and choose Screenshot. (You have to activate this first in the phone settings.)
hi thanks for replying but i already have es file explorer but i am still confused as i don't know which is my internal or external i a file under mnt call sdcard and it stores everything(it contains files on my sdcard but i am not sure wether all of them belong to the external adcard) while the sd-ext is empty but under storage it says that 1.53 of 1.8gb is occupied.
Also for the part to mount or unmount the sdcard i donot have the option as shown in the second pic.i went the the correct directory as you said

Error when trying to copy files between phone and 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.

[FYI] [Solution] Can't format sd card as internal.

This is a very small post as you can see..
I have observed that many of the users are having trouble while flashing most of the custom ROMs available for K3 note.
I myself was facing this problem.
After any Android KitKat update system doesn't allow the SD card to be used as default storage.
Most of the apps required permission to read write and edit files.
For example if you have encrypted any files on your SD card using ES Explorer then you cannot decrypt it unless you give it permission to write on SD card and sometimes it doesn't even ask for permission.
Well there is a simple solution to this thing.
What I did is I install Xposed installer for nogat.
And there is an Xposed module called XinternalSD which allows external SD card to be used as internal SD, basically it provides a false path to the internal SD.
Hope this helps..
can i use magisk instead of xposed?
