[Completed] [Q] Kitkat update cant delete files in microSD? - XDA Assist

Hi! Hope you guys could help me on this one. Recently i updated my Note 2 LTE N7105 to Kitkat 4.4.2. ROOTED. one time I noticed that i couldn't delete big files such as movies on my 64gb microSD. I could move it to different folders but i couldnt delete it. one more thing i noticed was that i could delete small files such as an mp3. but when i try to delete a folder that contains mp3's it wouldnt allow me to. I did some reading and i found out that this is because of the Kitkat for whatever security changes they made. Although i tried to do it on my laptop using a MicroSD adapter and i was able to delete files. but still its a hassle to remove the microsd from the device from time to time. i was wondering if i should just go back to JBean 4.3 or is there a way to resolve this issue. thanks for your time.

Hi,
You will find the your device specific q&a thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2
But as this may be an issue beyond just your note 2 you may consider asking your question in the general q&a thread found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
Either place should more than likely get you an answer
Best of luck!

Well.... Sorry I suggest searching XDA through GOOGLE and read the other hundred posts and suggested fixes regarding the issue. Try the different methods mentioned. There is one guy 'ODIA' that I have read, and seems to be the only one, who can fix this issue. But you have to pay him, give him access to your computer and the sensitive info on your phone. I tried helping somebody with about a dozen methods and none of them worked for him. But he had a null IMEI (all 0's) and his phone still worked.

One option is to flash to complete stock and take your phone to T-Mobile. Tell them it happened when using Kies mini to upgrade to GB. I read over and over that it has happened to people during that process which would not be your fault and they should help you fix it.
Good Luck!
ty for you time
i didwhat you say and they ask me if i have a phone line whit them ofcourse i dont so they say " just clients can have help from us , and i recomend you to TRASH that phone its TOO OLD!!!!!"

[Q] CyanogenMod 7

I've just installed CyanogenMod 7 on my Samsung Galaxy s2 and it's pretty cool but I need to know where are the apk files stored from the market and apk files that i've copied over from kies. When I connect the phone to my lappy I can see the apk files that I've copied but cant find them on the phone to install. I install everything on the internal sdcard because I dont as yet have an external sdcard. I'll just give a quick example, I just copied over to the phone a android data on/off widget, it's there when I view the phone on my lappy but cant find it in the phone and yes you can all call me a noob but i'm all new to this great thing so please help cos i'm going mad here.
phone = samsung galaxy s2 GT-I9100
carrier = ORANGE, UK
rooted using CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5.tar

[Q] sdCard not working after CM10 ROM install

Hello to all.
This is my first post. I have just installed CM10 on my Sprint Galaxy S3 SPH-L710 phone. I notice that my information contained on the sdCard is not being read. I can look at the pictures. In the Storage portion of the settings, I notice that the sdCard "usage meter" is blank (grey). When i install the card in my laptop, I see all of the files.
Is there a fix for this or should I install a new ROM? I installed the latest version from this site (8-23-2012)
Please help and yes I am a Rookie with this. But I appreciate all of the information here, and yes I SEARCHED for an ANSWER prior to posting this question:fingers-crossed:
Blessings
Just FYI this is the Verizon S3 forum.
And you can't browse your card thru the settings>storage menu. You need to use a file browser like astro or es file explorer. You can also use the one that's already on your phone called my files.
And it may be worth knowing that it is September, not August. The latest build of CM10 as of this writing for SPH-L710 is cm-10-20120914-NIGHTLY-d2spr.zip according to get.cm. Perhaps that SDcard issue has been addressed since the 23rd of August

[Completed] How do I make my external SD card primary storage for my device?

Okay, I'm having some issues with my device being a Samsung Galaxy Avant. I have gained root access and TWRP as well as AOSP ROM flashed... Because who wants stock? So since I'm always looking for ways to make my phone better than the rest and with out spending an outrageous amount I ask how do I get more space on my device. I have a lot of music and new music is always coming in and while using a file manager works, it tedious and unsettling if something goes wrong. So I appreciate any answers or hints.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
To do this, you need to modify your fstab in your boot.img to be able to redirect internal storage to say, a second partition on your SD card. But it's messy (especially if the bootloader is locked), and full of considerations (e.g. puts extra load on a sensitive SD card).
At any rate, please go ahead and create an XDA account, so you can post in the rest of the site. Then, check out the following thread:

[Completed] Inaccessible files after rom change

Hello guys! I'm in a bit of an odd situation here.
What is happening is that my Huawei Ascend Mate 7 has files, which are physically written in the internal storage, but with no way to access them.
Here's the picture: (can't post links...)
i.imgur.com/jyEUiSX.png
Here you can see that the disk usage analyzer detects those files, but when listing all files, it doesn't show them... causing the results to not add up.
Here's what caused it:
I was flashing an unofficial CM11 (the first one available for the AM7) that seemingly created a different partition for data storage, instead of using the one that the stock rom was using before. I moved my files there, but decided to restore my backup of the stock rom. But that cut access to that new partition completely, though the files themselves weren't deleted.
If anyone has a clue on how I can get access back to these files, input is greatly appreciated!
