How it will bi solve ..
It can't be solved. Kitkat here is to blame. It took away some permissions. Hope it gets fine in 4.4.4

Instead of ES use stock file browser!

I has also similar problem. I think it's because my phone unroot. Not only ES Explorer, many other applications also can't write data to the SD card. I'm intending to root my phone. There should or not?
without root
You can do all file operations by using stock file browser if you havent rooted the phone yet!If rooted the device then no problem!

Hello,
I need 10-20 mb from the internal memory to carry mp3s. The reason: Almost every day I need to update the music in my car (I use memory card) and I want to copy 2-3 mp3s in the internal memory and then insert the car's memory card and copy them in to it. It was easy with my previous phone (Tytn II), but now the internal memory is locked. Can I unlock it somehow?
Thank You!
the internal memory is only really accessible using abd push, or using a file explorer like from estrongs (but your phone needs to be rooted)
Thanks, I tried ES Explorer but it says copy failed. My phone is rooted.

+1 to the root explorer
Can anyone confirm that you can only move files to the external SD card using Samsung's File Explorer and not third party variations like ES File Explorer Pro? I believe this is because of an idiotic change that KitKat brought, but strangely, my Note 3, which was upgraded to KK, doesn't exhibit this problem (I can still move downloaded movie files to my external SD using ES File Explorer).

I was trying this with my 16gb version that I sent back for 32gb version (comes tomorrow). I tried some appmgrpro3 and it show'd what I could move. It worked meaning I never used Samsung's file explorer. If by that you mean Samsung apps(shows all apps installed, next tab running so forth).. I THINK that opened after and I could pick storage or sd-card.
Yet for a program lets say 711mb. It would send the APP 11mb to the sd-card and leave the 700mb on storage. It did this for every app I could transfer. I hope that's just a bug.
Ok I think I read you post wrong. I dont think I even tried that yet haha sorry. I will get back tomorrow though
Apparently, you should still be able to move files back and forth using an app like ES File Explorer, so I'm not sure what the issue with my Tab is. The card was formatted using the device itself, so everything should be fine. I am starting to suspect there is some kind of security bloatware involved.
Heck, I couldn't even erase a movie from MX Player Pro; it gave me a KitKat permissions warning.
There's an Xposed Installer module named KitKat SD Card Full Access, looks like it might be a promising post-root solution to the write issue.
Hi.
Just purchased a SM-T800 and was wondering if there is an easy fix for me to be able to write to my SD Card? Do I need to be root to be able to do this ?

Kit Kat changed the way sd cards work.
The easiest way i know to fix this is to Root your device and then install this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
I have the tab s 8.4 and have a micro SD card coming in this week. I might be misinterpreting this post but does Kit-kat really not let the user copy over downloaded files onto external storage? I'm the kind of guy that usually immediately roots but was enjoying the stock experience for once. Definitely a bummer if this turns out to be true.
No, it let's you do it fine. But you have to use the My Files app. Not the app of your choice. Unless you root and change that.
whit this fix App sd card? i try to resolve the problema with large torrents i try todownload directly to my sdcard becuace torrent say cant find the location of folder when i choose microsd download folder to download files ...
Thank you for your reply.

ES File Explorer File Manager
With this app, you DON'T have to ROOT your device, and you can copy/move file from device to SD-card vice versa:
ES File Explorer File Manager

You need to be rooted and applied the app to sd card fix before you can download torrents direct to sd card. Otherwise you can download straight to your tablet then transfer to sd card using the my files app.

You can't transfer apps to SD , from the Playstore "AT ALL", unless you are ROOTED.

I cannot copy or move anything using ES. The only workaround I found is connect the tablet to a PC and copy or move the files with widows explorer.

Yup, SD card came in today. ES can't do it. Time to root I guess...

Tried the app you linked and unfortunately it did not work. My problem was finally resolved with the Wanam Xposed application SD card fix. That works fine if anyone else has any trouble. But honestly it is so irritating that any of this is necessary to get full use of my device. I am rocking 128 gigabytes loud and proud
Okay well maybe not. Big file I was moving to SD is now gone and I can longer write to the SD. Bummer. No idea what went wrong.
Second edit: so the JRummy Apps "SD Fix" on the Play Store seems to have me covered for now. Fingers crossed...
Third edit: Gahh once again read only. No idea what the issue is. SD appears empty, can't read or write. Any help would be appreciated. For now I have a useless slice of plastic sitting in my otherwise perfect tablet.

I made a mistake in this: sorry!
On my Note 3 (also on Android 4.4.2), ES File Explorer works correctly with copying/moving files from/to SD-card...
Strange it's not working on the Tab S...

I had this problem with my 32gb sandisk card, it even said made for android on the packaging but it was very unreliable, sometimes there and sometimes not, even tried the usual test apps for these sdcard on my pc and they reported genuine with no errors. In the end i decided to buy a samsung 64gb card and it works reliably with stock apps but i have not got around the kitkat restriction cos i dont want to root yet.

Same story with my card, SanDisk and android packaging. I might look into getting an official Samsung card. Thank you for the reply!
uTorrent update
The new update on uTorrent:
✔ (NEW) Save to external SD cards (Solution for Google/KitKat external SD card restrictions)
In case anyone didn't know.
I just got the phone and downloaded es file explorer which is my favorite file manager. But it freezes/lags hard on note 4. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
Just use stock file manager. Works great until phone gets rooted.

I have experienced no problems using ES on my note 4. Snappy response even on SD card.
no problems here. I like ES because it can go right into my dropbox folders.
That's odd. I didn't install anything special but just es. I know that it can't write on SD card for now but even on internal drive page it lags really bad. I tried uninstalling and installing again still no luck.
no issues here with es file explorer.
try a factory reset?
You didn't change to ART runtime did you? I'm on dalvik.

No non-rooted fix. Applications have to be updated to use a new framework.
EZ-PDF is an example of one that can access and write to the card if files are opened via the content provider option instead of the built in file handler.
Es file explorer apparently can also do it.

I could not copy /paste from internal storage to card using ES File Explorer
I've read 5.0 will fix this..I can't wait if this is true since we can't have root
I'm confused. I'm able(i think from what I just did) to move a pdf, and I've been moving pictures, videos, etc to and from my sd card. Is there a certain file type restriction, because when I experienced the block before,I couldn't move anything.
So I'm confused?

=========
Most Apps that come in the Stock ROM can move to SD card...Stock File Explorer...for one, it just can't access all file folders in phone. 3rd party apps have the trouble.

Ah got you. Maybe I will try to download my solid explorer. I haven't installed a lot of apps I previously used to this device. Lol, it's funny, but I just haven't felt the need..
But what's an example of one the stock file browser can't pick up our move? I want to try it..
Sent from Note 4 on Tapatalk
Basically...anything in the "root" of the phone...system folder for example...Stock explorer can not access.
