[Completed] How should I update my phone to Marshmallow? SD card problems. - XDA Assist

On my Lenovo A7000, a recent firmware update says that I can update to Marshmallow 6.0
I want to update but there was a message in red that I'm wary about.
If you previously switched the default storage device, after upgrading to Marshmallow the data and applications stored on your SD card may be lost. Please backup any important data.
What course of action should I take?
My default write is my SD card
I previously moved all my photos and videos to my SD card.
Should I backup both my internal storage and SD card or just my SD card?
Are there any other steps I'm missing?

[Completed] What happens if we deleted the only copy of ROM on a phone without an SD card slot?

I'm planning on buying a new phone which doesn't have an sd slot. I'm definitely rooting it. So, while installing a new ROM, if we delete the ROM copy accidentally and don't have a nanodroid. I've read on an xda thread that such phones have a SD partition. I suppose we can use OTG. But if it doesn't support OTG, am I fkd?

Hello guys! I recently bought a gionee P5W,the phone is really good looking and a fast tasker. However I am facing a problem the external sd card(16gb) is being shown as sdcard0 however it should be sdcard1 also all the system files from camera images,Bluetooth files to apps downloaded from third-party appstore everything is being stored in this external sd card also there are certain apps which are caches & data in both internal & external storage at this rate my external sd card run out of space I use that card in multiple devices so I can't afford that also in case I remove it some stop working. When I checked in settings and the phone's bundled file explorer there the external sd card was shown as external storage but can't find any way to correct this. Also this all started after I removed external sd while the phone was running, and when I put it back error was shown "sd card damaged

[Completed] Android Internal memory corrupted

So a while ago I noticed that when I do a factory reset on my phone, the apps that I HAVE INSTALLED remain installed. Even if I delete them I don't have access to the rest of the memory, I have about 2,4GB free of 4GB. (Note: The phone has and 8GB internal storage, and before I encountered this problem I had access to the 4GB)
Now for the other part. When I connect my phone to my PC, it should show 2 drives well mine doesn't show the second one anymore (which is the internal storage) just the SD one. If I remove the SD and plug my phone back into my PC, it shows the Partition of the internal memory, called G:, but I get this error message, G:/ Is not accessible. Incorrect function. .
I've tried to format it but it doesn't work. Any other ideas would be appreciated.
