Hi all,
I am trying to get android to work on my old Tilt2 for my fiance so we can play games together. I've gone through all the steps by adding the correct files to the root of the storage card and running Haret. Every thing seems to work "fine" other than the fact that I can't see a storage card while in Android. I tried to partition my SD card to see if that would help but I am unable to determine the proper way to do that. Any help would be appreciated
Do you have some type of file manager installed on Android? I know that I could always see it, with the exception of the Android folder on my card.

I've said this 100x, not sure why it never shows up on people's searches...
But backup all the data on the card. Format the card (full format, FAT32) using the HP Tool. Restore all the data on the card after the format, or start over fresh doesn't really matter. Apps should now be able to see the card, etc.
I'm not concerned about apps seeing the storage card. I don't have a "My Files" app that will let me navigate the card. Do I need to download a file manager in order for it to work?
I fixed it.. I had to download a file management app I feel dumb now.
Which App?

Amusingly, I use multiple file storage apps. Super Manager for making system files r/w, and file expert for the look and feel. I have astro too, on my other phone, but only really use it for enabling all file type downloads from the web.

I would say keep all Google Apps excluding YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, etc. Things that can be downloaded from the market (but keep gmail in)
Maybe keep the popular HTC Widgets and apps and make a seperate add-on for all the others.
and since your are rooted you can add an overclocking app like the one you metioned in you other post
i will go with : gmail,rom manager, a file manager , and if you can add the market enabler app that could be good
Yeah, a file manager would be nice (but put it in /data/apps so people can uninstall it if they want. I prefer Linda since it is light weight) and ROM Manager, Titanium Backup.
my request:
rom manager
youtube
spare parts
take off google books
that is all.
Okay no probs @ all!

You need to delete all the partitions on the card and reformat it.
best way to do it on a windows machine is with something like partition magic (off a hirens boot cd)
if you have a linux box, do it through that with cfdisk. Delete EVERY PARTITION and start over
If windows isn't seeing the card, your best bet will be to boot off a unbutu live cd and try and recover your stuff from there.
Oh, wait, did you partition your sdcard WITH stuff on it, without backing it up? If you did that you erased all your stuff. Partitioning it for sd-ext wipes the card and repartitions it.

I second the booting into ubuntu idea. I've used redo backup software, as it's pretty small and fast. From there you can save the files from your sd card onto your harddrive or flash drive if you have other usb slots available. You can then reformat your sd card. Best of luck!
any news ?
Hey Guys!
I took over the Wildfire of a friend and he reseted it. Now i wanted to put my SD-Card in it but all the Apps i want to download are safed in the internal storage. By Google search i just found solutions for saving fotos and videos on SD-Card but not Apps and so on.
It runs with 2.3.5 Android. Can you help me?
Thanks
Would it not be easier as it is to put all your apps into an online backup like SOS? (Link here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDEsImNvbS5zb3NvbmxpbmViYWNrdXAuYW5kcm9pZCJd
Then backup your apps, photos, videos, music etc.. After that download the app onto the other device, sign into your account and redownload everything to the SD. The way you're trying to do it just opens the door to confusion.

I think you should try the titanium backup(you can find it here "http://www.filecrop.com/77298937/index.html").you can backup almost everything you have...you should definitely give it a try

Yeah nice solutions, the problem is i got a new SD. So the only way i can imagine how it could work is to download all the APKs i need, and put them on my SD-Card... but i think it wants to install on the internal storage, or does it install whereever the apk is?
Thanks!

Unfortunately for you, mate, the Android is made so that an app is almost always installed on the internal space and, if the developer included this, it could be moved to the sd card. The location of the apk makes no difference and even if you moved it, it leaves parts in the internal storage (like moving only half of it).
I suggest you use Data2SD or Link2SD (I preffer the latter) to install whatever app you need totally to the sd.
Hi,
I'm using CM10a3 by arco... I did the internal/external memory swapping and it worked.
The problem now is that many apps I had installed do not work anymore!
Apollo crashed - can't open it anymore! - while others say that they are not installed!
How can I repair them?
I tried copying all my folders from my internal memory to the sdcard (after the swap), but I still face the problems mentioned above!
Of course they dont work. Because you didnt move them. So now you have to reinstall them again

What do you mean?
They were not installed installed in the sdcard!
And also copying them to the sdcard does not solve the problem as I wrote before...
So what do I have to copy exactly and from where to where?
Can I go back maybe by undoing the swap? Would it work?

Best to swap immediately after flashing rom..try to clear data and reboot..or better to reflash and swap again. Thats d 1st thing i do. After flashing i boot up, open play store and only download root browser lite before swapping and reboot. Den ony install apps

I mean if u can reflash cm10 it would be better..less chance of bugs..start over. So your process should be..
Wipe data and cache
Flash cm10
Flash Gaaps
Reboot
Then after setting up phone, download any root file browser. I personally dont like d cm10 file manager.
Do the swap. Change 0>1, 1>0
Then REBOOT
And you're done. Can install ur other apps/backups.

OK, tx for your piece of advice, but I don't want to flash everything from scratch.
I swapped int/ext memory back and now everything works again, of course not the swap anyway...
What's the process of swapping in a not-pristine environment (i.e. with many apps installed)?

No worries
I haven't tried non-pristine flashing b4 but this should work (its vy similar to the above):
I am not responsible for any mishaps *MAKE NANDROID BACKUP*
Make CWM backup
Wipe data and cache (and dalvik cache, if u want)
Flash cm 10
Flash GAAPS
Reboot
Swap sd card (refer above)
Boot into cwm
Backups and restore > Advance restore > restore data
Wipe cache
Reboot
Pls tell me if it works out=)
If it doesn't jz restore ur backup..
P.s. If some apps FC or have problems after this method, try uninstall and reinstall.

The apks aren't working because when you did the swap you broke the "file paths" (to use windows terminology).... in other words, the phone OS was unable to locate the apk code/file where it expected to find it and the apk force closing/not working was the end result.
Have you undone the swap and found that everything now works?....
If that's the case, then there's no need to reflash. All you need to do is use an app like Gemini app manager to move all your apps to internal phone storage, then apply the swap and finally use Gemini again to move your apps back to your (now swapped) SD card....it's what I do, and it works perfectly every time.....

Correct: undoing the swap, everything works fine again.
You're right: I can confirm that the apps that the OS does not find - after the swapping - are those now on my SDCARD memory (moved via App2SD).
I had forgotten about these, sorry!
So I assume that following your suggestion, these apps will work after the swapping.
Nevertheless, Apollo - which is NOT on my sdcard - after the swapping FC, whereas it works flawlessly in "normal" (not swapped) environment... any idea how to solve that?
Tx a lot.

Yes, doing the move "post swap" with Gemini will work and has worked several times for me....
As for Apollo, I'm afraid I can't help there......I don't use it, I've frozen it in favour of Google Play Music which I downloaded from a link on XDA.
There are some apps which I keep on phone storage no matter what.... apps which I guess are used during start up.....apps like trebuchet, any themes you might have installed (and are using) and any security apps...(anti virus, permissions managers... that sort of thing).....the reason being that the phone performs a media scan at every startup, and the SD card is always the last storage volume to be mounted and scanned, so if there are any apps stored there that are needed during startup, the phone won't be able to access them until the Mount and scan has been performed......(remember I mentioned about file paths in my previous reply.....same principal applies)
Edit...just had a thought about Apollo, there are *some* apps that will only work if installed in phone memory....Gemini app manager is one of them.....maybe Apollo is another?....just a guess...
Edit 2....just had a similar problem with Google play music....to begin with, I had it in phone memory, then I moved it to SD card and suddenly the "widget" for it stopped working and the playlists I'd created were all empty.....moved it back and no issues other than the fact I had to re create the playlists.....

Yes I know, but imho it's not a problem waiting those 10 seconds for the SD to be read... every time you reboot your phone (very rarely in my case, like 2-3 times a week).
My policy anyway is to keep everything on phone storage, if possible, and move things to SD when the space is finishing.

There's a folder called /mnt/sdcard/android/data
If you swap the SDcards, that folder becomes 'shifted' to /mnt/external-sd/android/data.

Hi!
Just updated my HTC One M8 to 5.0.1. I thought I would be able to R/W SdCard finally, but NO!
When I'm asked to grant access, I hit Grant, and then when I select SdCard (external) error pops up with : "Documents has stopped working". I used Solid Explorer (to delete or create folder), ES File Explorer (same), Quickpic (to delete picture). Of course "stock" File Explorer is working fine.
I tried: disabling Docs, G Drive, etc., uninst. updates and nothing helps.

Gutec solution worked really nice.
I have a HTC M8 (Lollipop) and i was fighting to make SD work with no luck ... neither from HTC.
And now a guy comes with one simple step and everything working as it should.
Why HTC or any other company didn't figure out this solution and didn't give directions that solve the problem ..... and Gutec i really wan't to know how you come with this solution?
Anyway thanks a lot
format it as fat32
it's incredible that you format an SD with Android, and still cannot use the card.
Format it as Fat32 and Label as discribed by gutec WORKS!
THANKS!
I've got to say that my SD card is in fact formatted FAT32, without any set label and I don't have any problem writing to it. I can't imagine the drive label being important for anything, unless there is some really weird bug in Android.
thank you so much
So simple. Just label the sd card and problem solved. Didn't figure that out yet, glad you did.
RE:
HTC M8 European version.
Android 5.0.1 official update.
No root.
Cannot write to sd card with 3rdparty apps. Except copilot, none are working.
My card has a label, tried formatting with phone and windows pc with no positive result, same problem persists.
what else can I do?
thanks to the post above my problem was fixed. Also its not necessary to format too(i didnt cs mine was already fat32 so i didnt bother). Just adding a label to sd card will do. seems Documents app cannot open the card while its unlabeled

Hi guys. If you did everything and still not able to see the card, you should try some extra steps.
In the "Grant permissions" screen use three dots menu and check "Show SD card" and after that you will be able to see it and selected. This worked for me.

It seems important that it is FAT 32 - if NOT Fat32 then you have to reformat to FAT32 ( I had a 64gb sdxc)

When I'm asked to grant access, I hit Grant, and then when I select SdCard (external) error pops up with : "Documents has stopped working". I used Solid Explorer (to delete or create folder), ES File Explorer (same), Quickpic (to delete picture). Of course "stock" File Explorer is working fine.
I tried: disabling Docs, G Drive, etc., uninst. updates and nothing helps.
Has someone got this too? Or is it only on my side?
Thanks!

I too have this issue with many file manager apps which is weird, they worked fine a month ago, now it's like someone hit the "off " switch. If you get it worked out please contact me at [email protected] so that I may correct mine as well...Thank you
