I have been searching for answers on this and so far found nothing. Sorry if its already been covered somewhere I didn't find.
The SD card is working fine in the pone.
When I put it in a usb adapter to plug into my pc it mounts fine and I can copy files to it without any errors but when I put it back in the phone I cant see the files?
Same thing happens when I plug the phone into a pc with USB and copy the files.
The files are still there because when I plug back into the pc I can see them.
Anyone know why I have this issue please?
Many thanks
Ben
Try unmounting an remounting the sdcard in the Settings menu.
Have you tried other filemanagers than the stock one?
I can't confirm your issue but it sounds like a caching issue.
Have you tried turning it off and on again? =)
I have a similar issue , I have files that I have copied over to the phone sd card and wanted to use a file manager to move them around into different files however none of the file managers seem to see the files

I am using ES File Explorer
I have tried rebooting the phone and also (after you said) mounting and unmounting the SD card. The Issue remains the same.
Does anyone else have this issue or any ideas?
If you're connected to PC as MTP mode, try to switch to camera transfer mode..
Maybe this will help?
External and internal sdcard mount points
After some more investigating I have discovered that what is displayed as /sdcard/ is in fact the phones internal flash memory and the actual SD card is mounted as something else.
There you have 2 folders in /mnt
/mnt/sdcard >> taht is the internal flash storage
/mnt/sdextcard >> that is the inserted sd card
http://mono-for-android.1047100.n5.nabble.com/detect-SD-Card-path-td5710218.html
This explains why I could see the files i copied to my sd card on my phone as my phone wont enable me to see the actual external SD card.
Was surprised I couldn't find an actual thread about this on the forum.
I can see that creating a mount point for called SDCARD within the internal memory will allow apps that default large content files to use this space without complaining but this means that although Samsung allow SD cards to be inserted they cannot be used with a standard set up?
So is there any way for me to get to this other mount point without root access?
I thought, for a change, I might hold off rooting my phone but this might spur me on...
Afaik Android does not have a concept of "internal" SD card. (Which is the or at least a reason why most phones have a separate data partition)
However when phone manufacturer's started offering internal storage capacity for normal files, they just used the sdcard.
The name of the external sdcard varies from phone to phone and manufacturer.
I can remember that the name of the external sd card on my S1 was /sdcard/external_sd/ (no /mnt as with the S3 !)
On current Cyanogenmod for the S1 it's /mnt/emmc/ which seems to be introduced as some sort of "standard".
This variety in naming shemes and the possibility of a phone not having internal SD-card storage, only having internal SD-card storage or having both _SHOULD_ make app developers give you the option where to store it.
If it doesn't it's a restriction in the app, not the sdcard.
Solution[/b[
If you are rooted you can easily bypass these restrictions with a simple trick. Make sure the app is terminated before attempting this!
Go to the terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su
mkdir /mnt/sdcardext/APPFOLDER
cp -rvf /mnt/sdcard/APPFOLDER /mnt/sdcardext/APPFOLDER
mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard/APPFOLDER /mnt/sdcardext/APPFOLDER
You've now told Android to re-route all filesystem access'es transparently to the external SDcard while the app still believes it's on the internal one.
Note that you'll have to run the following after every boot (or have it run as auto-start) since mount's are not persistant.
Code:
su
mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard/APPFOLDER /mnt/sdcardext/APPFOLDER
Thank you for the explanation on this d4fseeker. Really all I wanted to do at this time was be able to access the external SD or point to it as a content location. But I will bookmark the solution for forcing apps to use it.
No I know what I know I have rooted my phone, curtesy of Chainfires guide here and can now see the extSDCard directory

In ES file explorer, you can go to your external SDcard by open Menu (left capacitive button), then select Manager and then SD card Analyst.
it will show /sdcard,,, it means internal SDcard. You have to touch "Disks" icon (the second from the left), then select /mnt/extSdCard. Eventually you can browse your external SD.
I don't know if there is the easier way. Or you can use the stock explorer app "My files", it is easier to browse the external card but with less function than 3rd party app.
That does work thanks - Turns out I purchased Root Explorer a while back so I have installed that and set the home directory to be the external SD mount point. Still need ES though for when I am copying across my network

I have quite the same problem but another way around. I can see all the (music)files in the phone but when I connect the phone via USB to my PC I can only see a few (about 30) of the files in the folder. I have booted the PC and the phone, took the SDcard also out and in. Also when I insert the SDCard to the PC's cardreader I can see all the files, so I quess the problem is in the phone. Any ideas how to solve this?
Not sure what your issue is but my advise is to confirm you a definitely looking at what you think you are - that was my problem before.
For example when the Phone is connected to your PC:
Create a text file called phone.txt in the 'Phone' Directory
Create one called card.txt in the 'Card' directory
Then use the built in 'my files' browser or whatever app you use to see if the files are where you think they are.
Might help...

But doesn't this simply relocate 100% of APPFOLDER to the microSD card and still leave no option to have Apps in both flash locations? Or will programs like App 2 SD somehow now be able to relocate apps back to the internal flash partition (aka "internal sdcard")?
Ah, nevermind. "APPFOLDER" is a single application's appfolder, not a directory with all the apps. So this should be something an app could do on any rooted S3 with a nice gui and persistence through some service mod in init.d or whatever Android uses in its place, yes?
Ok, was just digging around in /mnt/sdcard and while a few apps have obvious directories there, most do not. What's more, being an android noob, I'm not sure where their directories would be located (app manager doesn't say either).
Anyone care to point me in the right direction? Also, is there a way to install some other standard linux shell commands like more and grep?
Thanks.

I recently installed an external sd card (Samsung 8GB class 10). I wanted to use it for photos, videos, music and app backups. Also to move some memory heavy apps to sd card. I realise with our sgs2's we're blessed with an abundance of internal memory storage, but wanted to cover myself for factory data resets and so on.
Anyhoo I can't seem to get my head round the folder/file name setup e.g.
Folder sdcard/ which contains sdcard/external_sd and also contains sdcard/usbstorage.
To confuse matters further I seem to have duplicate folders called:
mnt/sdcard/ which contains mnt/sdcard/external_sd it also contains mnt/sdcard/usbstorage.
I would have thought an external sdcard would have a separate root folder? My question is how to get "app to sdcard" to go to external_sd? Also what's the best folder/filename setup to sort out this mess? Thanks, any help would be much appreciated.

OK so in the linux filesystem /mnt is the area devices are generally mounted to
So the links in the area are to the same sets of locations
/mnt/sdcard is the mount point for the internal SD on a non rooted phone this is the default file system
thus in /mnt/sdcard/external_sd in a non rooted filesystem would simply show up in the file system as /external_sd (and the same with the USB storage) they are in fact one in the same copying file via either path will have exactly the same result.

If you're having trouble with the phone directory layout and you have root, you can change it by making a symbolic link to point in another direction or directly change the mount partition table, but I think that would afect the ROM behaviour...
For the first thing, if the phone usually has this directories:
/system
/data
/sdcard
You can create a new one (/external_sd or whatever you want) and make it point to your external_sd directory, so in your root folder will have:
/system
/data
/sdcard
/external_sd -> /sdcard/external_sd
The command to do that is: ln -s /sdcard/external_sd /external_sd
Cheers guys. Thanks for your advice and knowledge on this one. I'm unrooted on stock voda rom 2.3.5. If I understand correctly (and I'm not entirely sure that I do;-). The two copies of the folder/file tree is fairly standard and does not cause any conflicts?
When I move an app to sd, it defaults to internal sd. I can then move them via file manager to external sd. But is there a way to make external sd the default card for this or at least a way to make a choice between them? Apologies if you've already covered this and I didn't get it.

it does not move the data file (still in the internal memory or known as /sd)
i using script manager to help with the code as below
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 60
mount --bind /sdcard/external_sd/gameloft/ /sdcard/gameloft/

which one is correct?
for now gameloft is successfull at the moment
but if i use on other folder like from "ea" it is not successfull it tend to read back to the internal memory card which require me to redownload the data again
sometime it can read at external but once i restart, it fail again
if i got few app needed to use the command (currently gameloft, ea, lexi-comp) i wanted the data to stay in external sd card
should i create 3 different file for the script manager to run or i just create one single file and dump all 3 command into one single file?
your reply is very much appreciated
I try something similar with DCIM and MEDIA
I tried something similar with folders DCIM / Camera, Media and Music
I create a script with the script program manager and even try to get into the rc.d but I have not found a way to run at startup and run it from root explorer no problem but to run automatically at startup does not work

Hey folks,
first of all, I'm sorry if my following problem has already been discussed elsewhere in this forum, but I wasn't able to locate a thread or post that fits my exact issue as I don't want to mess up another thread with this.
So here is my problem:
I've recentally updated the resurrection remix rom from v1.9.1 to v2.1 on my SGS2. My phone boots up normally and works like a charm. But then I mentioned that both of my music-apps (poweramp and stock-player) are showing every song twice, as there would be file duplicates. So I checked the content of my external sdcard (where I put my music on) with both the stock-file-explorer and ES file explorer and found out, that my external sdcard wasn't mounted in /mnt/sdcard anymore but in /mnt/emmc and when I clicked on the sdcard-icon in the stock-app it only showed me my internal storage. With ES file explorer I can't access my external sdcard at all. I already plugged the sdcard out of the device, rebooted, plugged it back in and rebooted again. But nothing has changed. Further I've taken a look with MyPhoneExplorer and figured out, that the folder /mnt/sdcard doesn't exist anymore (creating it by myself failed) while /mnt/emmc was still there. Long story short, here are the facts:
/mnt/sdcard --> doesn't exist anymore
/mnt/emmc --> shows the content of external sdcard
sdcard-icon in stock-file-explorer --> shows internal storage
ES file explorer --> can't access sdcard at all (maybe I'm too stupid to use it)
music-apps --> show all the files doubled
Please help me, what can I do to get my external sdcard back at /mnt/sdcard and the music-apps to show every file only once?
let's just talk about the mount points first:
on stock roms, the internal sd card is mounted as /sdcard/ and the external sd card is /sdcard/external_sd/
on aosp roms the internal sd card _should_ be mounted as /sdcard/ as well and the external sd _should_ be mounted as /emmc/ (external multi media card).
in recent cm9 builds, suddenly those mount points were reversed, which does not make much sense in my opinion.
with the jump from ressurection 1.9 to 2.1 you might have just hit that switch. have you performed a full wipe before and/or after flashing the new rom? maybe that'll do the trick
on aosp roms the internal sd card _should_ be mounted as /sdcard/ as well and the external sd _should_ be mounted as /emmc/ (external multi media card).

Actually that's the case. But what is mnt-directory good for then, if there already are folder providing the content of internal storage and external sdcards? and just btw. wikipedia says that emmc stands for embedded multimedia card and this was invented to be used as an internal storage, that's confusing me.
have you performed a full wipe before and/or after flashing the new rom?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I followed the installation guide very strictly and performed the wiping and factory resetting before and after the flashing as instructed.
But if the files are where they should be, why is my music indexed twice no matter what I do?
ps: I managed to access my external sdcard with ES file explorer after doing an analyse of the sdcard through the manager-option of ES file explorer.
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a solution for the problem, beside waiting for the next version of the rom. But to those of you who may face the same or a similar problem, here's a little workaround:
In poweramp you can define the folders to scan, so just allow it to scan only /emmc/ and the doubled files will disappear. Unfortunately this is not possible for the stock-player. Maybe this is helpful.
i never bothered to look up emmc and just assumed the "e" stood for external.
if it stands for embedded it would actually make sense to switch the mount points.
the fact that one device can be accessed using several paths, e.g. /sdcard/ and /mnt/sdcard/ is a linux thing. same thing is present on pcs, servers and embedded systems (video game console, set top boxes, mediaplayers...). the mount point /sdcard/ is for convenience.
the "picking up files twice" issue you have with your music probably comes from some mount problem. but here's an idea:
in any music player, find a song that is present twice in a row, and look at its details. you should be able to find the full filename including the folder structure. then you will know exactly, what causes the duplicates. it might be that your card is mounted in some other folder as well.
other than that, as you said, it might be best to wait for the next rom revision, or get your post count up and post in the development thread directly, where they can probably help you. if that is a general bug of the rom, i guess you are not the first to realize it and people should be working on it as it sounds really annoying.
Hi,
I recently rooted my galaxy s2, GT i 9100 that was running with ICS 4.0.3 with CF root kernel SGS2-XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.4-CWM5, and installed Resurrection and remix 2.6.1 ROM.
However, now my external secure storage data are not accessible, though there is a file "external_sd" under the "sd card" in the OI file manager. I used some other file managers like X-Plore, ES file manager ect but for no avail.
And, the external sd card is not shown under "storage" option in the phone too. Phone galary, music players etc also don't recognize any of the videos or photos saved in the external sd card. Please somebody help me solve this issue..

Look for your external in /mnt/emmc/.
have a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1536568
But if you bind external SD from /mnt/emmc -> /sdcard/external_sd you will not be able to save photos on external by stock camera app.
Create an folder on your internalSD for mounting your external
Open up Root explore & find the location of externalSD in root (usually it ll be in /mnt/ folder)
open terminal emulator on your device
Type this code
PHP:
su
PHP:
busybox mount --bind <location in root> <location you need to mount>
i created a folder named 00ExternalSD so that it would stay on top
My ExternalSD mount location is /mnt/extSdCard
And the location am gonna mount is /mnt/00ExternalSD
So mine look like this (first you have to be superuser so type SU & then this code )
HTML:
busybox mount --bind /mnt/extSdCard /mnt/sdcard/00ExternalSD

I am using ES file manager and X-Plore file managers and OI file managers. And I can see a folder "external_sd" in /mnt/sdcard (/mnt/sdcard/external_sd). However, when I open up external sd, it is empty and no data available, it is just an empty folder.
One more thing is, earlier(before root and new ROM), when I opened the "Phone Storage", the external sd card was visible with available memory space etc, but now there is nothing to be seen as such
Also, how to find terminal emulater? I have no idea about it
If you have any data on card, copy it to PC and then format it to FAT32.
Terminal = adb.

Excuse me, this a " micro external sd", and cannot mount on any of the slots in the computer...and cannot accesses using USB also, as any of the file explorers does not read the data in the memory card..
You don't have any adapter?
I will try for an adapter..and try your way also...

Hi,
I got a memory card reader and mounted the external memory card and browsed the folders, but to my amazement it has no data, and that is why the videos and images were not shown in the gallery.
I think this is what has happened;
On the day I rooted the phone and installed the new ROM, the phone was not getting GPRS and then I did a factory reset on the new ROM. However, before this reset, all the images and videos were available and accessible. While doing this reset the phone got dead and then I removed the battery and re booted after some time, the phone re booted with the loss of some applications, and after this incident the I didn't see the images and videos stored in the external memory card. I never thought that a factory reset would destroy my secure data in the external memory card, but unfortunately it had happened. Can anybody believe this??? However, I re flashed the new ROM again and searched for the data in my external memory card as I never thought that the factory reset had deleted the data in my external memory card too.
Now, I am clear there is nothing wrong with the phone, ROM and kernel, it is the FACTORY RE SET that deleted all my data in the external memory card, now I can see that external memory card is already there but all blank.
I thought that this is a problem of not reading the external memory card,but that is totally wrong. Since there was no data, I was mistaken that data was not accessible(because, who believes that external sd card will be deleted by a factory reset).:crying:

it has perfectly and instantly worked for me...
Today I found - after trying to make a foto - that my SDCard doesn't seem to be not accessibl anymore - at least the cam app says this. After some ivestigation I found out that the SD is still accessible but all files and folders are in read-only mode. I checked the perms with ESFileExplorer and found no hint why (775 was set correctly) however the properties dialog of differnt file managers always says read-only. I tried to access, remove and create files/folders via pc o that card (format FAT32) w/o any problems. So I made a backup and format the card within the phone and what shall I say - it seems to work again.
Does anybody have an idea what this may have caused?

Thanks a lot!!!
BTW: I used the search function already but I did not find an explainantion which matches fully to my problem
Possibly found a reason
Hm, may have found 2 possible reasons for that behaviour:
- SolidExplorer (strange behviour as after start of it a lot of files partly w/o filname (only . or @ or y) are displayed, partly not visible in other file managers and after some time I can't delete/change no file on that card anymore)
- Too high value vor SDBooster (used 1024 now reduced to 512) - but for my understanding this should not be the reason as it was working for a long time w/o problems.
Will investigate later and will inform about the outcome...
Help on this thread please.
Same problem here.. My torrents, my camera, sms backup and restore, titanium backup, everything else specially those i set as daily scheduled activities always end up having unsuccessful results..
The problem can be worked around by unmounting->re-mounting sd-card..... every 5 minutes or so...
HELP!!
format it
Why didn't I think of that in the first place? Geez..
So anyone here who really understands the problem?
Note(2)worthy response using Tapatalk HD.
I have exactly the same issue as you, at the very beginning, i notice this problem when i was taking photo and said my sdcard is not accessible, it then changes to use internal storage.
Let me list out my symptom and solution:
Symptom:
1. The sdcard looks fine, no special error thrown during android startup.
2. Just after startup, i am able to write file /copy file to the external sdcard
3. After a while, the external sdcard becomes read only. I can view/copy files from sd card, but not write/copy file to the external sdcard.
4. No apps can modify the files in external sdcard
5. By using ADB shell, type mount, and you will notice the /extSdCard is mounted as "ro", which means read only.
Description:
If you have the above symptom, your external sdcard probably have some problems...
When I was checking the mount details on step 5, i noticed that the default options is onerrors=remount-ro , it looks like the external sdcared is remounted as read-only because it has problem on external sdcard....
Solution:
I put the external sdcard to a Windows PC, and run scan disk (right click the drive >"properties" > "tools" > Check Now).
It really find problem on the FAT of the external sd card!!! It fix automatically and my external sd card is working fine now.
In my case, it doesn't need to root or format the sdcard.
Good luck!
