[Q] SD card vs. External SD card

So I've always placed my zipped ROMs on my External SD card. Now I'm getting ready to flash an ICS ROM and read the instructions for the first time in a long while and I see that I should put the zipped ROM file on the "SD card".
I guess I always think of an SD card as being an external item. Is the root directory an sd card also? Not the same as the external SD card?
I see in ES File explorer Root is listed as "/sdcard " and clearly not the same as "/sdcard/external_sd"
So where should my flash-able zip files be before flashing?
Thanks

[Q] external card not showing in file manager

Excuse me..please help me..
I am using microsd 32gb. The problem is some aplication cannot show external card folder.
Example: I am using androzip pro file manager and the external card not showing in directory.
Other problem is when I am using 9gags and I want to save a picture, I cannot save the picture to external card, because there is no external card folder.
Thanks..

The file structure has change.
U can see ur sdcard in root/storage/sdcard.

Asop roms like cm10 donot support ex-fat formatted cards you have to format it to fat32
But first back it up using a card reader.

[Q] External SD card path

I am running CM10.1.2. I have been trying to backup my data onto external sd card using Mybackup Pro. By default all the files are being backed up to internal sd card. What is the file path for external sd card?
Also, when I move any app to sd card, they are saved in internal ss and nt he external one.
Any help with these issues would be much appreciated.

Can't Write to SD Card

Hi! I have a Sprint LS992 LG G5. I have a 200 GB SD Card. I can't save any files to my phone via the SD Card nor write anything to the SD Card. If I try to download something to the SD Card or have an app write to the SD Card, it will error out. I can, however, transfer files from computer to the SD Card. Is there a possible other pathway in the file explorer to access the SD Card? Currently, using Solid Explorer, my SD Card sits on /storage/BBF5-E792. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

You can save stuff to the sd card. You have to download whatever your downloading and use your stock file manager and move it to your external card. Other file managers will not work.

I downloaded things to internal memory and then was able to move it using Solid Explorer. It is such mickey mouse bull**** that you can't just download directly to the SD card. I only have 32 GB of internal memory space (which isn't enough) and having to move things from internal storage to an sd card is cumbersome and tedious. If you (or I for that matter), figure out a way to directly download to the sd card (which may mean using solid explorer to find another file name path to the sd card) I'll let you know!
