microSD - kitkat lock - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The first thing I noticed when I began playing with my Note 4: the files made on my 64gb microsd from my previous phone (note II) are still there after I tried to format the disk several times both on my PC and the (note II)
within only a few minutes of research I found several sites saying microSD cards were locked with the kitkat update?
I was just wondering if anyone here has any input as to whether we'll either (a) ever be able to or (b) are already able to delete old files and I haven't seen the right link?

SD Card Write Fix
Just edit etc/permissions/platform.xml (using root explorer) as shown below...and reboot...
add line:
<group gid="media_rw" />
Now all apps will be able to write to external SD Card... This is a temporary manual fix until we have a working custom recovery)

I have this same problem. Can't move apps to SD card.
Help us please!
I'm using most recent Pac-man rom 4.4.4. SD card is 32Gb.
Currently, Android only supports the primary external storage for native App2SD function.
If the primary external storage is emulated from the internal phone storage (like in S3, Note 1&2 etc.) or does not exists at all, moving app to SD function will not be supported by Android system. It's the limitation of device (rom & hardware).
You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.
Its not even letting me link the files.
Sent from my GT-I9305
I don't think App2SD supports i9305. I have this problem before but decides not to use it.
Or maybe you can use Liquid Smooth Rom. They do have the function to move apps to SD.

As Known The hTC IncS only problem is the small internal memory for installing apps and its data.
always been a problem for me :crying:
After 6 months of searching.. i found a solution
It was unexpected..
The Titanium Backup.
as known this app is used for backuping and restoring apps and its data smss and more
but there is some additional commands!
one of it is Move section.
the app uses the sd card to move apps with su promotion.
so press the RUN: move user apps to SD select the apps you want then tap the ok icon.
it will take sometime..
Profit!:highfive: your problem is solved!
NOTE it is recommended not to move the : home screen apps, keyboards, xposed modules.
because the app is actually re-install the app in every reboot so the home screen icons will disappear and the keyboard will lose it selected language and the xposed modules will get crazy.
Tested with Vivokat rom by sezszo and with a 4gb sd card.
Please if you have any other solutions post a reply and tell us
if this helped press the tanks button :laugh:
note: Sezeso recently reported he will add support for installing apps in the sd card! :highfive:

[Q] SD card is detected by Windows but i can't access it

Today i was using my phone as normal and then i get the warning: "SD Card was removed unexpectedly". Tried to reboot to see if things went normal but with no success. I don't think it's completely dead because when i insert it on my computer windows does make the detection sound, but i can't access it.
Help?
Maybe you can try to format your sd card via your computer.
Before you format the card (using FAT32 only), try to do an error scan on Windows.
That's what happens when i plug my MicroSD card into my computer. Windows DOES detect it as a storage, but it can't access. I've inserted it on a Galaxy 5 and it asks to format the media, but the process is interrupted in the middle.
Maybe MBR?

From my experience your card is dead. I had the same exact issue with my 64 go microsd card. I had to buy new card couldn't even recover my files

You should have a look in the device manager, maybe, you have only to create a partition on the sdcard ...

Help, Partition problems. Default storage.

Can't switch external as default storage anymore and there's another partition showing up. It's a same storage partition. I tested it with screenshot. It showed up in both internal partition. I tried many times to change to external as default storage but after reboot it doesn't change. All my app data is store in sd card.
This happens when I install xposed framework from twrp and my battery ran out before it successfully reboot. But I didn't turn it on when I recharge it. I took out the memory card to copy some file and I turn it on without memory card in my phone to check some text. When I turn on with memory card in my phone I check my file with es file explorer. Then I just found out that there's 2 internal storage in my phone. Then I check the storage in setting. The default storage has been switched to internal.
Before I put back the memory card I run a chkdsk on the card with cmd. ( chkdsk /f [letter]
I've done this few things so I don't know which step makes it like that and how can I fix it.

Can't access to my internal storage mi5

hi, I cant go to my internal storage on my mi5. I'm currently on Marshmallow with cyanogenmod 2016-20-12.
I have a lot of photos in my internal storage, but when the phone on, I cant access it in my gallery. Neither my music. I can see my photos in other gallery that scan my phone.
When I shut down the phone into my TWRP, I can see my photos in my pc, and all the files that i have in the internal storage.
I've tried a lot of ways to resolve it but I cant find it. those ways are:
- change ROM: I've try with very ROMS of marsmallow and nougat.
- Format internal storage on TWRP
- change filesistem of storage on TWRP
- clean the chache of internal storage, external storage..
- searching on the web for any information but..
I have to say that the media on whatsapp, when the days pass, I can check it in my gallery, but only the media since I install a ROM.. the other media I cant see it.
Attached I leave the images in case you serve as a guide
