Hello, I am new to Honor 8, I am rooted and when I try to add folder or move files with Root Explorer I get this message about SD write permission. Then I tried setting my extSdcard as default and then I had to restore do a full restore. I also check permissions and they are fine. Sorry for the nube ? have not had an external card since my nexus 1

My SD is mounted as R/W
I can't find the thread, but somebody said to click Cancel or close the SD card permission request with either Root Explorer or ES File Manager or it screws things up requiring a reset.

Ok. I'm a bit confused. I'm on stock 3.2 Rooted. I just got a 16GB SD card and threw it in the Xoom. I was expecting to be able to go to SETTINGS>STORAGE and format the SD CARD. The system recognizes there is a SD CARD but it won't let me format it and won't let me save any apps to the SD CARD...even apps that are intended to be saved to the SD card. I also noticed that the SD CARD is saved to a pretty strange directory...something like mnt/extn and the actual directory /sdcard is internal? WTF?
Ok, someone please advise me what is going on...am I basically only able to view pictures and play movies off of the SD card and nothing else? I was hoping I could save apps to the SD.
The problem is, that the external SD-card is mounted read-only thanks to moto... No clue, why. I have to use ES explorer, activate root-explorer functions and grant su-rights to be able to write to the external SD-card. There are tools around which claim to unmount and remount it as r/w but those didn't work for me...

You can write to external sdcard--my Titanium Backup is written to the ext. Sdcard--but in Honeycomb, apps can't run from ext. sdcard. There's no need with 32gb of internal storage.
Just keep all media files on ext.sdcard--they take up way more space than apps do.

Yepp, as I say: You can write to the external SD-card, but only if the app that wants to write has su-permisson. Titanium most definitely has, otherwise it wouldn't be able to backup the system files...

Hi,
Format the card to FAT32.
Just put your own files/folders on the card.
Android will put on the files/folders it needs.

Connect ur fone to pc and move .android_secure to the other sd card and also other folders if u want then insert the card back in the fone. And it will be better if u turn off the fone while changing sd card.
Hope this helps.

Is anyone else having problems getting full R/W access to ext SD cards? Tried freeing up some space and I'm unable to delete anything on my SD card? And without root I am unable to try the kk sd fix?

You should follow the guide it shows . select the root directory of the external sd.first time i pasted something to external sd with es xplorer it showed me the guide to take permission
I pressed the dots and selected show external sd and then selected the root directory of external sd.after that i could paste successfully
I'm having problems deleting files from my ext SD card, I cannot delete anything thing that is on the SD card.
Edit, just tried what you said with es explore and it worked, looks like I can't use dual file manager with this update
even if you Downdrade to 5.0.1 like i did you will face the same Problem , to fix this you have to give every app want access external SD root access and the problem that you Can not do that for apps that don't ask for root like torrents apps
Has anyone figure out to make SD writable w/o root?
