Im using note3,0 KitKat 4.4.2, and having problem with my microSD card when i downloading via torrent app.
Downloading filed directly into my phone storage works fine, however, i am getting error whenever i set the downloading directory into my extSD card.
Used ttorrent,Utorrent Bittorrent apps and none of those worked for me. Both Bit/u Torrent showed me "Error : write to disk(check)", and Ttorrent showed me 'this folder is read-only, it cannot be selected'. (as thumbnails shows.)
Its weird because i can move/copy files from Device storage into Sd memory card via "my files(the basic app.)", and pictures that i took saves into the extSD card...which means i can write on there while torrent doesnt allow me download into the SD card.
is there any solutions on this? Oh, and im not rooted yet.

KitKat brought a new security "feature", which does not allow any non-system apps to write to external SD card. The only way to remove it is by rooting. A workaround is to download to your phone storage and then, on PC, move it over to the external SD.
I am on KitKat and rooted I used the patch and it works all fine to save in memory card

I use aTorrent.
I think your external card went bad.
Mine did a few months ago.
I had a 64gb that one stopped working.
Nothing was getting saved to it (nothing could get written to it).
It
Luckily it allowed me to copy from it to my desktop.
I'm on 4.3
Welcome to KitKat. You'll find about a few thousand threads on this issue on XDA.
Google added new security settings to KitKat which makes it impossible for apps to write to the external SD without a workaround from the devs, or Root.
Stock has been changed to work (You still can't rename anything, though). Any 3rd party app needs to be changed by the developer.
File Manager
Ive noticed once ive downloaded the file through Ttorrent you can go to the file manager select the the file and just move it to whatever folder you want on the SDcard. I just use the standard file manager.

Hello
My girlfriend borrowed her dads HD2, and now it stopped working. She talked to him and most likely it requires an update of Android.
I'm usually pretty tech-savvy, but the language spoken on this forum is beyond my comprehension.
So, I have a HD2 with both win & Android installed. To boot into Android i need to go into windows and press two files on the SD-card: "CLRCAD" & "HARET".
The files look like this in Windows (pc):

}
Her dad mentioned Boxmax 6.5, so I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100560
The files I downloaded from there looks pretty similar, aside from a few additions on the phone.
Downloaded the SD-one, but now i'm lost.
How do I update the phone? Just overwrite the files with the new ones or clean install? If it's a clean install, how do i do it? Do i need to backup something?
Backup all files on the SD card to a safe place (pc).
Delete folder Android on the card.
Copy the Android folder from the archive you downloaded.
Pop the SD card back into HD2, and start Android from winMo (clrcad, haret) or better yet install the exceller autoboot.
Thanks alot, sounds easy enough
When i pop the things back on the SD-card from the backup-folder, I still need to install all the apps and widgets again right?
Edit: Oh, and what about all her messages? Are they stored on the phone?

Yeah, you usually use titanium backup, heh.

Thanks so far for all the help, I got it working fine except, and this might be a really n00bish question, how do I turn off the phone?
Nevermind, found Quickboot
Obviously the default method of moving files (MTS I think) is horrible. I can remove the external SD card and copy files over from and to it via an adapter, but while that is faster it is annoying to do day in and day out (as I want to continually) update the device as I consume information (read TV shows and Movies) on the train. Also this method does not allow for easy access to the internal storage. Is there a way to change the access method so I can mount the disk as I would with with my ATRIX (MSC I Think). Or should I look into using a network mounted FileSysem?
Thanks,
ERIC
Paw Server
so what you want is to transfer files from/to your tablet to/from another device? if so, i can suggest you Paw server. I use it on my A500 and my I9000: it turns your device into a kind of web server: file transfer, send sms, .... very usefull and all you need on the other device is a web browser. you can then access your device through a web page. see screenshot.

Don't get your problem... I can copy files to my tab internal and external memory using wifi or usb..?
I'm having a strange problem with Dropsync/Autosync/Onesync on my GS4 running the "Mostly Stock NG2 v1.3" ROM -- I patched it to allow writing to the external SD card, but for some reason, even though the sync apps show the external SD card as writable, they don't show the emulated/0 folder as being writable, and the apps don't create their application directories as they normally should -- as a result, even though they can write to the SD card, they can't sync because they can't write to the device to keep track of what has been synced. I contacted the developer but he wasn't able to help me, besides identifying the problem is on the device storage side of things rather than a SD card issue.

I suggest you try a different ROM. There are a lot of important things missing in that ROM. Dialer chooses don't work for one. Almost any other NG2 ROM has the SD Card fix.

Any recommendations? I used to run TriForceROM 5.4 -- I'd like to find something similar, with crapware removed, wifi hotspot added, etc. but not a complete overhaul that introduces new problems.

This is my ROM- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086132
So far there are no problems other than the minor bugs listed in the OP.
I know that adoptable storage is encrypted, but is there any way to easily transfer the contents from my phone to my PC now? I just want to take pictures off and move them onto a network drive. I have TWRP 3.0.0.0, MM (without the Feb security update, since that still won't install), and an unlocked bootloader. I am NOT rooted, but am willing to do so if that will solve this issue.
Haven't heard of anyone successfully doing this as of yet. Perhaps a future Android update will fix this or a solution will arrive via a xposed module. The best workaround currently is to backup photos to Google drive (or some other service like OneDrive) and retrieve that way.

I have access to my files on PC.

Is your SD card set as portable storage or as Adoptable storage? I know that portable storage allows PC access (since it is not encrypted), but have been unable to access from my PC since converting to adoptable.
Adopted of course. You allow access and it still doesn't show on PC?

Well, what do you mean by 'allow access'? Are you talking about one of the options from the USB debugging notification in Android, or something different?

Whoa- I definitely have tried messing with those USB settings to no avail, but when I looked at your screenshot, I noticed that you had USB debugging turned off (mine was on).
When I turned it off, I could now see the SD card listed in Windows (progress!) but got a new error coming from Windows:
"The device is currently busy and its contents many not be fully displayed. If another application is copying data to or from the device, please wait for it to finish and then retry."
When i click 'Ok', it returns me to the Windows Explorer screen showing my SD Card as empty. When i re-clicked on the SD Card in the Explorer nav bar, after a few tries i could see my files (i sometimes have to change the 'Use USB for' setting for some reason. Sometimes Transfer Photos seems to work, and sometimes Transfer Files. I'm not sure why the erratic behavior, because i can now at least get to my files as needed.
It seems that (at least for me), I need to turn off USB debugging to see my files. Has this always been the case? I can't remember needing to disable it in the past- maybe it behaves differently now.
Either way, many, many thanks!
No it works fine with debugging turned on as well. I suspect a driver issue with Windows. Or, a faulty cable.
Hey guys. I've been struggling. Researching. Trying different things. But I can't get a specific APK out of my phone, located at:
/mnt/expand/05a8567d-f4ea-47f7-8e57-292150ed49ca/user/0/zombie.survival.craft.z/base.apk
I tried copying the file into another location. I can't access that folder on my computer when exploring my phone. The remote object '/mnt/expand/05a8567d-f4ea-47f7-8e57-292150ed49ca/user/0/zombie.survival.craft.z/base.apk' does not exist whenever I try the command 'adb pull /mnt/expand/05a8567d-f4ea-47f7-8e57-292150ed49ca/user/0/zombie.survival.craft.z/base.apk
IDK.
I want to goof around and attempt to edit it with APK Studio but I can't seem to get it over to my computer. Maybe I could use ADB?
I am rooted with Xposed framework and have ADB on my computer.
I am not trying to do this with ill intentions, I am a computer science major who is just curious and likes to mess with things.

Since when does photobucket not host embedded images anymore? That's crap.
Move this app to internal memory & use adb.
Or
Use total commander on phone and copy base.apk to another folder(downloads f.e.),
Or
Use my apks from play store.
You have sd card as adopted storage, folders are only mounted/linked. @m3kgt99

Thanks @dzidexx That went so smoothly. Like 2 seconds. I guess I should have researched about what I was really doing when I partitioned my SD card like that and stored my apps in /mnt
I feel like my phone has been so laggy and glitchy ever since I did that. This is probably why?

Yes it could be.
Sd card should be uhs1 or uhs3.
F.e.:
Samsung evo, evo+ 2017.

It's a UHS1 64GB. It just sucks only having a 16GB phone where the OS alone takes up almost half of it.
Geez when I pulled it from ADB I had to search my whole computer and finally found my APK in
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
I figured it would just put it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot (where I have all my other zip files that I pushed over to my phone)
