Yeah that sound like a real pain.

Still I am managing with 10Gb, could do with more room for game data as these days we talking 1gb a game lol, and photos/hd video take up a lot of space, but they are always transfered to pc, so it is doable, just need to be aware of your storage space a bit more.

just tried my 32gb class10 and still nothing, couldn't resist lol



but it does show up as sdcard_ext in file explorer

properties:

sdcard_ext
type:folder
path:
contains:0 files, 0 folders
size:0 bytes (0 bytes)
modified: 2012-10-17 01:39:51 pm
readable:no
writable:no
hidden:no


could it be mounted with adb now we have root ?

Worth a try

[jikobutsu]

How would we do that with adb ?

what commands?

It is worth noting: sdcard_ext folder was there on gingerbread, so it is not new.


Also, the path is showing nothing, so maybe thats the problem.

what I think i sdcard_ext is for a external sdcard or hard drive haven't tested it yet

[schkinx]

could it have something to do with the filesystem not being detected correctly ? I know it probably doesnt , but anyone tried formatting to ext2 , 3 or 4 instead of fat filesystem ?

They probably altered the design along the way and decided to go for the fixed back for whatever reason , so disabled the slot . if it were common knowledge the slot was still usable everyone would be taking the backs off , snapping all the tabs in the process , and we'd all have the backs held on with  electrical tape .. colour optional

Well i know it was futile , but i stuck a 16gb card in the slot ..

And good news .. it fits lol.

Reminds me of an old HP laptop i had , had to hack the intel graphics driver to enable screen rotation . Because of issues with the internal display they disabled it , but it worked fine on external monitor . Only a few lines had been commented out . If only this was as simple

[i am not a hacker]

It may have fit, but that doesn't mean that it works.

Head over here and you can now... I mean you can mount your external SD card!!!
