Whenever I use an ad-supported app, the phone downloads those pics into your memory so when I use the stock Gallery app to view my camera photos, these random craps also appear there. Is there any remedy to this?
Some programs may DL image files and store them to the device, and since the memory is internal you may have a few show up in the gallery...just delete them.
Also, Picasa and Google+ may be set to upload automatically and those photos may also show up.
I just flashed AOKP the other night and realized that I don't really like the AOSP camera and how it can't save any pictures or videos to the external SD card.
does anyone know how to get the stock samsung ICS camera running on AOKP? my internal SD really isn't large enough for the random pictures and videos that I take so I would really like to have the option to save to my external SD.
oh and for some reason I can't save google music onto my phone for offline use. I think it's because AOKP has a weird file structure where the internal is now called emmc and when the "SD card" folder used to be internal is now the external. Does anyone have a fix for this?
any help will be really appreciated.
thanks!
can someone confirm if i can store my music, picture, camera pic, document, files and other backup on sdcard and store app on internal memory?
so basically no app store on sd card?

You apps will install on the internal. Storing media and files on the external is up to you. However, I believe you have the option on TouchWiz whether pics save to the external or internal. On things like AOSP/AOKP, you don't have that choice yet... If you do then darn, someone show me that option.
Hi, all. I'm having a weird problem.
While images are saved to the SD card using the stock camera app, videos will not. I checked both internal and external SD cards using ES explorer in the DCIM folder and the videos doesn't exist. The camera app will show that the video is being recorded but after hitting stop, the video isn't there. I switched the option to save to internal storage and it works, switch back to external SD card and no go. I repeat, photos will save to SD, but not videos, so it doesn't look like a permissions problem.
I have a HTC One M8 with Lineage OS version 14.1-20170928-NIGHTLY, but this problem existed also in previous versions (can't tell since when exactly). This happens also to this guy, so it's not a device-specific problem.
Thank you for your answers.

Your best bet is to post this question within the following Official LineageOS thread for your device.
Since you didn't specify if you had the Single or Dual SIM device, i provided both the thread links.

Sounds like you guys have quite high end devices. Can it be, the data rate is to high for your SD cards? My low end moto e has may be lower video resolution. No problem in recording to SD.
Long story:
First timer with custom rom OSs.
I can't format my SD card as internal storage. It's 32 GB and formats this way as 64 GB. I'm not even sure it was formatted this way in original Galaxy S5 OS.
Tools, info etc.:
Galaxy S5
Lineage OS 16 (latest), Gapps full (latest), SuperSU (latest - doesn't work though).
Google Photos, Dropbox, Onedrive, Camera FV-5 & Cinema FV-5.
Phone is not rooted.
I seem to remember when installing LineageOS first time a few days ago, that everything worked properly, besides my SD card being the wrong size, when formatting it as external storage.
Goal:
To be able to shoot AND screenshots (latter if possible) and saved instantly on SD card.
To be able to view all photos with best photo viewer (Google Photos for now).
To be able to have *any* "sync aut. to cloud" app see and perform automatic sync of photos. E.g., when taking photos, they instantly are saved to cloud via Dropbox or preferable OneDrive.
To be able to use *any* camera app for the above. Preferable Camera FV-5 & Cinema FV-5.
------------------------------------------
So here we go!
First goal was to get the default camera app to work, by selecting external SD card as storage. Choosing this in the app, option is saved, but photos still end up on internal card. Screenshots the same.
Solution: Use Camera FV-5, as it allows any path.
Problem: No photo viewer app takes that folder into account, which means that I *can't* swipe through recent photos easily. Photos aren't backed up by cloud apps.
Second goal to get the default path moved in any way and recognized properly. Boy, did I spend a lot of time on this!
Solution: Finally this thread gave me a solution.
Problem: Same as the above - no viewer or cloud app gives a s**t about this new location.
I tried other solutions like auto move files apps, but doesn't work because folders are still not recognized by viewer apps.
Another issue is, that my SD card seems to "come and go", meaning that sometimes when I connect my phone to Windows 10 and enable USB for file transfer, the SD card doesn't show up in Explorer. However, the card is still present in "Files" app on the phone.
Some apps I've tried, sometimes see the SD card, sometimes they don't. FolderSync and other apps needs to get permissions to SD card every time I open these apps. They still work though and do their jobs.
Camera FV-5 seems to use the full path and not a linked folder, which is probably why this camera app always works.
There are no issues with my SD card, as I've tried to reinstall default OS and everything is working as usual there.
My S5 is incredible laggy with default OS, but runs exceptionally great with LineageOS, but it's a complete deal breaker, if I can't get something as simple as the above to work!
I hope this wasn't to long a thread
