SD Card problem. Please help me. - General Questions and Answers

Hello XDA.
This is my first time to come here and register, i heared that XDA is the best android developers website so i came here to request your help.
Lately i bought Lenovo Vibe S1 that comes with 2 Nano-Sim slots but if i'm going to insert a SD Card then there are 1 Nano-Sim slot.
I have a 4GB SD Card. I inserted it to the phone. The problem here that when i copy/move files to the SD Card it doesn't show in the apps. Like, moving Photos from internal storage to SD Card it doesn't appear in gallery. Same as songs, when i move them from internal storage to SD Card they doesn't show up in 3rd music player apps. Unless i unmount the SD Card from the settings and remount it. But it is a pain to unmount and remount when i move anything to the SD Card.
So, any help to fix this?
PS: I don't want to root, flash or install ROMs to my device.
Thank you for taking your time by reading my thread.

[Q] Corrupted SD card?

Hello,
I own an HTC Touch HD. I recently semi-bricked it by flashing a bad rom, switched to an Orbit II - including the 8GB SD card.
In the meantime I flashed a working rom back on my Touch HD, put my SD card back into the Touch HD and switched to that phone again. Everything seemed to be working, until I took a look at the SD card (both through the phone and through "Disk Drive".
However, now the SD card is only listed as a 968MB SD card, with most of the original files gone, and the remaining file/directory names and contents broken.
Now I don't have access to a Micro SD card reader, so I cant access it directly. I was just curious as to whether somebody has an idea how to fix this SD card again, or whether my SD card is broken.
The data on the SD card don't matter - just wanna know whether I should just buy a new SD card
I have found a lot of hits on Google referring to SD card reporting wrong sizes, but those were mostly about reformatting, which is definitely not the issue.
Also examining the SD card with diskpart didn't yield any relevant information.
Is this SD card really broken?

[Q] External SD Card

I keep seeing references to internal SD card and External SD card, and just now I was using SDMaid and it lists Sdcard (8GB) and External SD card (empty). Is there a second slot for another SD card that I am unaware of.
I put the 8GB card that came with the phone in the slot next to the sim.
I have wondered this for a while and after searching, I decided to pose the question here to get clarification.

No, there is other slot. Some phones, like the Galaxy S and its variants, do have a soldered on internal SD and a slot for an external. The Desire HD(and therefore Inspire) do not. You can in theory partition your SD card and it is supposed to show up that way, but DO NOT DO THIS.
That's what I thought, but I had to check.

Make internal SD act as the external SD

I had an issue with the SD card hardware bit of my phone and can no longer insert an SD card. Is there any way I can mount the internal SD as an external one as well so I can take pictures to it/make the gallery recognize it. Thanks
What ROM? CM7 has an option to do just that.

new memory card and moving info

Hi I'm really new to this Android stuff and well I have an 8GB memory card and just got a 32GB card
I have copy pasted the info from old to new but, all my apps that were copied to the sd card are not loading.
I copied some apps to the external memory card to save space on my actual phone
what am missing? or do i have to put all my apps back on my phone then move them again?
Thanks for your help!
Are the applications not showing only in the launcher or even when you go to settings--->applications?
If they are not showing when you go to settings---->>>applications then you might need to install them back again. Or else what you can do is insert back the old sd card and move all the applications back to the phone. Copy all the things from the 8GB SD to the new one and check if they work.
If you want better answer please do write your mobile model and be sure that the mobile accepts 32GB sd card.
Thanks

[Q] Android and sd cards

Hello guys!
I have a problem with my android phone Zte blade q mini. There are 2 memoryes, phone storage and internal memory. I insert sd card, but when i want to move apps to sd card, programs sd card supports as phone storage. How can i install apps from gplay directly to my sd card? The android is rooted. Also, how can i compound internal and phone storage if this is possible? Because i want to have just two memories, phone storage and sd storage. Is this is possible?
Thanks.
P.S. Sorry for bad english ;(
P.S.S. Happy new year
