edit: i'm trying to get the all emails to use the storage card, instead of the device storage.
bump, anyone able to help me w/this?

Export contacts to SD card...

What is going on here exactly?
You can Import/Export phone contacts from/to the SD card (sdcard folder).
This means that the contacts are going to/coming from the internal SD card, not your external SD card, if you have one.
Where are they coming from if you export them to the SD card?
Are they coming from Internal Phone Storage?
What is exported exactly? Just the names and tel. numbers, or all of the contact info you have entered (tel. no., e-mail, pics, notes, home addresses, etc.)?
If you delete all your phone entries and then Import from the SD card, will ALL the contact info come back faithfully, or will you be missing any info?
Has anyone here ever tried this?
A few more questions. Where does the SIM enter into this picture?
Is any phone contact data stored on the SIM card?
I heard before that you can transfer contact data onto SIM cards and take them with you to other phones.
I don't see an option to transfer contacts onto the SIM card with the SGS.
I had a Blue Earth recently that allowed this.
The manual says there is a way to copy contacts to your SIM card, but it mentions selecting 'a contact', not your entire contact list.
I also can't find this feature on my phone anymore (I did once).
TIA

[Q] Folders and MPE

I am having a very frustrating problem with folders disappearing.
Using MY Phone Explorer to sync I have a 64gb sd card with 12gb of photos I have two folders that persistently disappear.
There is plenty of room on the card and I have tried using USB to put the folders on the card.
They are ok for a day or so and Sync nicely then all of a sudden MPE says error unable to read folder file sync job MMS
Phone is rooted

memory card

What happens when I take out my phone's memory card with apps (Facebook, Instagram etc) inside?
The apps will be unreachable. Sometimes could use the internal memory or ask to re-download again them
