[Q] Galaxy R SD and USB Storage

Hi Friends,
I'm new to forum and bought new Galaxy R.
The partition in phone is divided into 3
1. phone memory 1.9 gb
2. USB storage 3.7 gb
3. My SD card 7.4 gb
Now the problem is I have download games and my USB storage is full.
I also I tried copying to SD card and playing it. but didn't work.
Since, This is my new phone I don't wanna root at early level since the company warranty is void if it is rooted as I have heard from friends.
I need help to copy into SD card and play without rooting
or atleast my game recognise the path of sd card where i have transferred.
I have seen previous post and tried many soft like apps2sd, etc.. nothing worked.
any alt solutions to copy in SD and play without rooting...
Thanks in advance..

Also when I try to transfer the files to SD Card using manager or other soft's but failed.
For example: Like I tried moving Gameloft Real football 2012 to SD Card. It only copies some 10 or 12 mb file which we download from market not the full files which we download later (i.e approx 400 mb)..

Install this app GL to SD from Android market and move data to external SD. How to use this app is given in the following thread:

format? LOL
I used GL to SD which can move huge data that we downloaded later into SD card.
but to me it is a bit confusing.. and sometimes i got 2 identical data both in my SD card and USB Storage.. im not sure if GL to SD support backup if you change your phone..

GL TO SD requires root. As given in the instructions, and i and the original poster doesn't want root.
Any other feasible option?

Thanks bro.. It is pretty hard to get this stuff solved..
Also, I tried the application for Mount.. even these app needs rooting.. God knows what to do...

Hi Friends,
I found some important stuff regarding the USB Storage & SD card..
This is for "Non-rooted" mobile phones.
I installed ES file explorer & X-plore and also few other apps.. This is to check how arrangement of file system are in the phone.
Now what i absorbed is, In the display of phone memory it shows 1.9gb and for SD Card memory it shows 4.9gb which is USB storage not the one which I have installed 8gb SD Card.
So its like this..
" /mnt/sdcard " This is for USB 4gb space (Non extendable)
" /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ " This is for my 8gb sd card (Extendable)
Hence, when ever any App wants to download additional data it goes to USB Storage (I.e /mnt/sdcard ) not to SD 8gb expandable storage card.
I want to configure or use the command to make the application to choose default location as " /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ " to save in my extendable memory card without rooting.
IS THIS POSSIBLE... Please do let me know from the experts...
THANK YOU..

From what i have seen , u need a shadow copy or u need to bind the folders in some way, which requires root... I see no other way...

Which button did u used for selection? Use Powerkey for selection of an option..
If the problem still persists, either ur memory card is not mounted properly or recovery is nt proper..

[Q] need mnt/sdcard/<files>

i lost my mnt/sdcard/<files> i delete them oh what a mistake!
but they were useless .
they story was began from 1 day i decided format my internal sd card then i did it from >setting/sd car and phone storage/format internal storage.
at this time i had 2.2 froyo . i tried flash 2.3.6 GB ,scan sd card for viruses , format ex sdcard.
but when i did the last thing (format ex sd card from>setting/sd card and phone storage/fromat ex sd )i lost my ex sd card too (must mention it i did format 3 time internal sd card and 5 time ex sd card again and again cuz i had sd card removed unexpectedly issue and somewhere said it happen by virus (i guess true cuz i downloaded some app recently and after that the sd card removed unexpectedly was occur)but those formats clear all thing. phone doesnt recognize both sd cards even .
now i live with a 4 gb ex sd card and unavailable int/ex sd card. (yea its unavalable but when i put it off without 4 gb ex sd the phone wont boot up)
in my phone i just see system root (no sd card no internal memory) .
the one thing i am thinkin about that is .maybe should i have this directory files backup mnt/sdcard/<files> .maybe if i copy & paste those files again my sd card come back again .maybe .cuz i have no doubt it mnt/sdcard/files wont change after flash official rom.and i cant flash a custom rom jelly bean (i hear that directory is /sdcardo )till phone cant recognize ex sd card.
i have no other idea.
so plz upload these files mnt/sdcard/<files>
