Use Schaps advanced configuration tool and change the default save location to your SD card. You can also do this in the camera options to save to memory card. You could also use Diamond Tweak to do this.

Hi all,
i have a problem with my Route 66.
I have the official/legal Route 66 so no warez or stuff.
When i try to download a map inside in the Route 66 program.
In the application i have to possibilty to download the maps. The only problem is that the maps are somehow stored on the device and not on my SD card.
I have a HTC TP and i don't have enough storage on my internal memory to save the map. I want to save the downloaded maps to my Storage Card.
Who can help.

Hi Anryl thanks for your reply
But the prog is already installed on the sd card and not on main memory
Now that is strange... I've honestly never even heard of such a problem before. I really wish I could help you but I have no idea. My suggestion would have been to install to SD card and see if it saves to the SD card but it seems the app is made for the Diamond as it's trying to save to internal memory.
Strange indeed... Does the program have options in the settings anywhere on where to save files?

No there is no option where to install it. Isn't there any config file or something like that where i can change the string for saving?
Does anyone have a clue? Thanks for the replys.
My problem is already solved.
Thank you very much for the help.

I got myself an LG G2X, off ebay, it's rooted, unlocked, and running CM7. How do I browse the SD card contents?
Using ES File Explorer, (Or Astro) I can't seem to navigate to see the SD card contents. Winamp detects all my music, and my ringtones are imported, but I can't retrieve my old photo directory, and app backups. Am I missing a setting to be able to view these, or something in the file browser? My last phone didn't have so much on board memory.
Edit: I think this thread answers my question.

Is there a way to put apps on the extended memory and media on the sd card? It seems to be either an all or nothing.

You mean the extra 5GBs of internal memory? It's mounted at /mnt/emmc if I remember correctly.

I know how to move apps to the sd card. But if I have the CM7 setting to "Use Internal storage" is on, when I move it to the sd card, does it move it to the internal storage or the removable card?
It seems like Android isn't set up to have up to have 3 drive options.
Hi,
I was wondering how to set the default folder locations of bluetooth incoming traffic and camera pictures to \sdcard\external_sd in SGR.
Is there any utility app which can set these locations to external sd card?
`````
open "camera" app, tap on settings icon, "memory" -> "external" (don't really know how is it on other lang).

here external always defaults to the internal 4 gb rom which is mounted as \sdcard.
I was thinking if there was a way to point this to \sdcard\external_sd
hm... all my photoes are in the \sdcard\external_sd\DCIM folder. 2.3.4 (Russia stock) and 2.3.6 (Austria)
I want an answer to this as well. I am a bit bothered by the 4GB internal SD card as all the games store their data in there and there is no way to move it to the external SD card. 4GB is enough for games but if the camera and video recorder is also bound to it then it is a serious problem with unrooted phones.
In my opinion a phone should have 13GB+ internal SD(16GB phones) or have no internal SD at all.
Comon someone answer please.

As of now I don't know if its possible for the user to decide where to save the downloaded data for the games even in custom ROMS, but you can definitely store the pics & vids directly to the external SD. He are simple the steps.
- Click on the settings icon in the camera app =>Go to Storage & select Memory card.
- Click a pic=>Use any file manager=>go to external sd=>DCIM=>Camera=>Here are your pics.
It'll definitely work.
Hope it helps.

The system stores the pics & vids you click/take in this folder by default . So you can't delete it.
It's not a problem if a folder is merely there but it doesnt go back to being default right?
And the gallery shows pics from the memory card as well?

Yup ! Once selected it stores directly to memory card only & pics do show up in the gallery.
Now you tell me when are you getting your R ?

Well something good was supposed to happen today but it didnt. I might have to settle for nexus S.
But how about bluetooth folder!? how 2 set the folder to external_sd for bluetooth?
I have a strange problem. I have rooted 6045Y with cm-12.1. I would like to save my photos into external sd. I have changed camera storage into external sd.
When I take a photo, it makes folder /storage/sd1/DCIM/Camera and saves photo there. So far, so good.. but when I after a while check the folder, everything inside DCIM is disappeared?!?

I can however save files into external sd. Yes, I can but they disappear, if they are in folder. I put some .mp3 files into root of my card and those didn't disappear. However, I can't listen them, because they misses.
Hello World, I have a question, maybe a stupid one, but here we go
Example: I buy a fresh, new android phone. First thing I do is insert an SD card that is full with photos. I open the gallery app and click on 8 photos from the SD card and look at them fullscreen. Now I remove the SD card from the phone. Question: Did these 8 photos (or any other non-clicked photos) in any way leave a trace in the internal storage of the phone, in the form of full copy, temporary copy, thumbnails...... (so in theory, this trace can be recovered with the proper recovery technique).
What do you think? Any answers are appreciated,
Thank you in advance, Leo.
Whenever you use a gallery app in android to view photos or video from any medium(sd card or Internal storage or Usb otg),
A thumbnail file(image) is created fir every browsed image file, which is smaller in size also.
Which helps us browse the image faster without loading it.
Now since every android app stores all temporary file in Internal storage.
Therefor these thumbnails are also stored in Internal Storage.
Most of the thumbnail files are stored in "DCIM/. thumbnail" location.

I have read this article and it claims that:
Thumbnail files are stored in DCIM folder:
/storage/emmc/DCIM/.thumbnails (if only phone memory is used)
/storage/sdcard0/DCIM/.thumbnails (if there is an SD card in the phone)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a Galaxy S4 and S5 with an SD card. When I take a photo with the camera app, the photos are stored directly on the SD card (so the DCIM folder in my internal storage is empty). In the DCIM folder on my SD card there are currently 20 photos. When I use the Solid Explorer Classic app I am not able to see the DCIM/.thumbnails folder on the SD card, but I can see it on the internal storage.
The DCIM/.thumbnails folder on the internal storage does not have any thumbnails of the 20 photos from the SD card (but there are other thumbnails for example from viber app...).
So my question is: Where are these thumbnails of the 20 photos from the SD card located? (do they even exist?)
Thank you and all the best,
Leo
No
No one can recover the original quality of those 8 pictures but the phone must save their thumbnails but these thumbs will have very low quality graphics.
Thank you for your replies.
Does anybody else have any extra thoughts??
Anything?
Maybe?

The folder you are talking about is typically a hidden folder. Does Solid Explorer have an option/setting that allows viewing hidden files and folders?

Yes it is true, this is a hidden folder. Solid Explorer has the option/setting to view hidden files and folders.
I have enabled this option (from the start) and I am not able to see the DCIM/.thumbnails folder on the SD card, but I can see it on the internal storage.

Just to be sure I understand you correctly, you mean it doesn't show the DCIM/.thumbnails folder when viewing external storage from within Solid Explorer but it shows when viewing internal?
Also, do you mean you can't see the folder itself or you can't see what is actually inside the folder?
