I have rooted using Effortless w/ Knox intact. When I try to move or copy a file (music) from my internal memory to sd card using Root Explorer it says Operation Failed. I can move it with the PC but can't transfer it using EZ File Explorer or the built in My Files. I have applied the SD Card fix but to no avail. Can anyone help?

SD card is only in READ ONLY. how do i fix this?
Try unmounting and remounting the card.
What are you using to browse it? If you use root explorer it had a built in option to set it to rw or ro (read-write or read-only)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
take the card out of the phone. sometimes there is a switch on the side that will disable writing to the card. Cant remember for sure if it is on micro sd cards or not though
There might be a corrupt file on the card. Root explorer does this to me sometimes. Put the card in a PC and copy the contents to your computer. It will fail on a file and then you can determine what file is corrupt and delete it from the card.
Been having some issues with trying to extract zips from sd card or change permissions on files on my sd card. It tells me I don't have permissions and I even tried moving a file from my phone to my SD card and got a error message. I'm using the B1 Archiver. I was trying to set something up before and tried changing the permissions on a file on my sd card and I got the same error. I just tried formatting my sd card but that didn't help.
I'm on 4.4.2 rooted with towelroot.
Install ES File Explorer from the Play store and grant ES File Explorer root access under its settings.
Just done an OTA update to Android 5 on my UK sim free Lg G3 but I am still unable to move files from internal SD to external SD.
Have a lot of downloads that are taking up space and tried to use ES file manager to move a video to my 64GB micro SD card and it failed.
I thought Lollipop returned the use of the external SD card?
Don't want to root the G3 because the banking apps will stop working.
What should I do?
Hi, did you try tu use stock file manager?
The stock file manager does not have a copy/move option.
Has write to SD actually been returned in Lollipop or is rooting the only option?
It has. Hold your finger on file and it will popup menu. Im using it all time. It's not FM if it doesn't have move copy or delete.
Tried that but again, no copy/move options (lots if others though, inc. delete, share ect).
Strange problem this.
Just an update.
I unmounted the external sd card and erased.
Now the built in file manager has all the options Inc. copy and move.
I can now write to the card.
Lolliepop has reintroduced Write To SD Card
The file manager app Xplore can now write to the sd card. You have to try it first and then it will send you through a small set up to allow writing to the sd card. So Google fixed it. Its just now the apps have to be reconfigured to be able to write to the sd card.

Glad to got that fixed mate! To make deleting videos and pics easier.. you can try Quickpic from Play Store. You can select multiple pics/videos easy and fast..move them to a desired folder or delete them
My phone is detecting my external san disk memory card but the contents of the card are not visible. It says there are no files but it is actually full of files. If I move a file from internal t o the external sdcard that file only is visible in the gallery but it is not visible in the file manager. I am using root explorer. I am not rooted. Please help.

Try the stock android browser. It might be the KK sd card problem popping its head up.
The only way to fix that is to root and run KK sd car fix from playstore...
Just wondering if anybody is having trouble transferring files from the Internal Storage to the Memory Card?
I tried using ES File Explorer but just trying to move one song, it gets stuck and the app force closes.
i had to use fx file explore and had to enable write to sd card hope that helps
Not sure, I tried moving one music file and it just gets stuck and causes the app to crash.
