After you have moved pictures to sd card what pictures are there to delete in 'default' storage?

Yes they are still there. I changed the camera settings to move photos to memory card but it doesnt help, the photos always come to the default storage ( you click the Gallery icon and there the photos are )

Photos from external and internal will be displayed even if folders have same names in different locations :/

Thanks for your reply !
My phones internal memory is small so i want to move the pictures to the SD-card, but isnt it kinda useless when i now have them in both internal and external

If you use a file manager to move the pictures how would they still be at original location??

I have not used a file manager , i have done it like this manual http://www.smartmobilephonesolution...res-samsung-android-smartphone-to-memory-card
I deleted the photos from default storage after i had moved them to SD and now they are gone from both internal and external

Internal/External SD Cards

Just got my GS2 today and I must say this is the easiest phone I have rooted to date! I have been working my way around the OS and found that apps are not seeing my files on my External SD Card. Is there a way to sort of sync these? I guess I dont mean sync, but have apps search both internal and external storage for files? Take beautiful widgets, I have a ton of images on the ex sd card. When I launch the app to apply one of those images it looks in phone storage and gives no option to search the ex sd card.
Thanks

easiest thing would to move everything to the internal sd card. i dont like how the phone sees SD card (internal) then from there i have to navigate to the folder called 'external sd' to look at my microSD files.

Exactly, but what good is it to have an external card if the apps dont use it? If I have to move everything to the internal card, what can I put on the external card and be able to use/access? None of my apps recognize the external card, lol.
i use my external sdcard for music & movie business and use the internal for everything else. i sync back & forth between pc & cell a lot so having a CLEAN (aka, none of those extra android folders) sdcard makes browsing and syncing much easier, cleaner, and organized. also, without that android bloat i can tell exactly how much goodies i have just by looking at the size of external sdcard
ps: external sdcard is more or less just a subdir on the internal sdcard.... its /sdcard/external_sd if i remember correctly.
i just slap my movie files onto thte internal sd since i delete them afterwards... didnt realize 16 gb is a lot of space lol
I removed some movies from the internal memory but when i go to storage, the available free space is the same as when the movies where there. I held the movie file down and selected delete when the pop up menu came up.
Any suggestions to clear the inetrnal memory or do i need to format the usb storage which will delete everything from internal memory?
Thanks,

Hi, You have an option in the camera settings to chose the external storage instead of the internal memory of the tablette. The tablette may switch from one storage to the other but I would move everything to the external and change the settings asap.
Hope this helps.

No option to save Camera photos to microSD (after update)

I have a UK unlocked HTC 10 with stock Kernel & ROM.
When I got it (last month) - I enabled an option in Camera to save photos to microSD card.
And it worked fine.
However, after I installed 1.80.401.1 update and then a Camera app update (from Play Store), I no longer have this option in Camera to save photos to microSD card (and it saves everything to internal memory).
How can I fix this?
(microSD card works fine in other apps)
Weird, mine works fine. Also 1.80.401.1.
Have you tried to clear the cache of camera app?
I haven't heard that this update delete the option to save to sd card. Also, your sd card is formatted as internal?
Do you have any photos in your internal DCIM folder? If so, move them out and then check the settings again. My phone only shows the setting if the internal camera roll is empty.

My SD card is formatted as FAT32.
Clearing cache didn't help.

I moved all photos from internal DCIM folder to sdCard's DCIM folder and rebooted the phone.
And now Camera app shows the storage setting again (and the removable storage is selected).
Bizarre.

That was not my question. But, OK, seems it's solved.

Have you gone to My Files -> Analyze Storage?
Does it list these videos still being in the internal storage rather than the SD card?
If so, not sure why that would happen - but perhaps the easiest solution is to plug it into a PC and manually transfer the videos from internal storage to the SD card?
I will move a lot of videos of many GBs size.. and my sdcard maybe full right now.. and the internal storage was same and dont got any space..
I think it was a problem
