Everything is being stored on phones internal but id like to store mainly on my removeable sd for obvious reasons. Any help? Thanks

Your downloads should be edited manually in your preferred browser. Pictures and videos can be selected under camera settings. Applications will still install on internal, but apart from that the rest can be pointed towards sdcard-ext. What else would you like to move to the external?
I just wanted all videos and pics from camera and browser saved to ext

Well, like I said. Just change the default location under settings when in Camera mode.

Hello, I'm having issues with the video maker that came with the note.
Once I open the app and select the theme and as soon as all the videos starts to load up video maker crashes and goes back to create new project screen :/
I was wondering if anybody else is having this issue and knew how to fix the problem?

Are you using a Rooted Device? What Firmware are you on? Do you have CWM Recovery?
If so then try wiping cache and Dalvik cache from the CWM Recovery menu and see if that helps.
You can also go to settings> applications> manage applications> all> and find the app and then clear the app data, etc and see if that helps as well.
Thanks for the reply. I'm currently on everything stock. Since I just got this phone and new to android platform I haven't really messed with rooting etc.
I tried clearing data like you recommended but it didn't help still crashing at the "add media" screen. Idk why...
Update:
I guess video maker doesn't like importing videos/pictures from sdcard... After transferring videos and pictures to phone it's working fine now. Is this problem normal? Or just me? Having 2gbs of pictures and videos too much? :/

Some of the files on your list may corrupted. Did you check with other set of files? If newer set of files didn't work.. try factory reset if still didn't work try hard reset, even if it's not working! Rooting is the best option. After that you can install a good working video editor from someone whose app is working good or you can even flash a new rom.

Yeah I copied the same pic/vids files from sdcard to the phone and video maker works perfect so files aren't corrupted, at least I don't think? App just refuses to use the media files from sdcard for some reason I tried factory reset no changes.
Must be something in sdcard cause unless unmounted the sdcard I cant get video maker to work.

Ok after testing what was causing this problem, I finally narrowed it down to "music" folder.
I have about 1000 mp3 on sdcard and seems like loading that many songs in video maker is crashing the app.
Anyone who has 1000+ mp3s try to load up video maker see if it crashes on you?

That was quite informative though couldn't try.
So it is a cache issue that can be solved by Samsung.
Yeah hope so... I wish I can choose which folder to scan and exclude like quickpic.

I have some 3000+ songs on my SD card and Video Maker crashes on me every time, no matter if I use a video on SD card or internal memory. I have moved the video around to see if that would help, but it continues cashing.
I'm not sure I understand what the solution is from the posts above.
a workaround..
Mine does this too, stock ICS. My SD card has lots of videos recorded by my htc desire, some files are corrupt. All other gallery apps simply ignore those files, video maker crashes.
Find the videos, music and pictures you want to use on the sd card, and copy them to internal sd card. Now go to settings->storage and select unmount sd card. Open video maker, and select media. On mine, it would still crash unless I killed by task manager, and re-opened. Then it worked, and export movie would fail. 2nd time it worked.
Mount SD card when finished.
I can browse sd card using explorer apps no problem. Shoes in system settings too. But won't show music or pictures when I go to those apps, music and gallery. Ideas?

Go to settings, apps, music, clear data. Same thing for gallery. If that doesn't work you might just have a bad flash going. Reflash the ROM and go from there.

Also...make sure there ate no ".nomedia" files, if you see this file it will cancel media scanner for the folder its located in as well as its sub-derectories...spook...if its in root, you will never see anything.
Do you or did you have Rom manager installed? There was a version of Rom manager released a few days ago that created a .nomedia in the root of the phone...
To see the .nomedia file you may have to enable the "view hidden files" under settings...

So i bought this phone a few days ago its an awsome phone for the price first thing the storage it bogles my mind why i can't have the option to select which storage be the primary internal or SD for example i love racing game and one of the best games are Real Racing 3 and Asphalt 8 and they are big games and takes up most of my storage space and theres no option to move the app to SD card is this because android 4.3 does not support it or Sony disabled it for some reason? And i dont want to root my phone cause i have an extended warranty for the phone.
And an other question. How good is the battery life for the phone i keep stamina mode on what is the average charge for the phone for mixed usage?
Yeah you cant set sd card like primary storage.But you can use app called folder mount and transfer obb (data) files from internal storage to sd.Also you have video on my yt channel.

Hi there,
I am new to this forum and this is my first time posting! I have the ATT samsung galaxy S5 and I am rooted but running the stock ROM. I am relatively new to android and this is my first one after three years of having iphones. Anyway, I just got a 32gb microSD card but I am having some problems making it work with the camera. Before I put the SD card in, I had several folders in my camera, such as videos, camera, screenshots, snapchat, transferred from my iphone, etc... When I transferred from my iphone, a lot of the pictures were out of order but I learned to deal with it. When I put my SD card in, all of the folders mushed together with all my videos on the top and everything out of order. Now I just have one folder called externalSDcard and one called "camera" where new pictures are stored and one called picassa. Im not even sure if they are folders or albums! How do I restore everything to how it was before but keep it all on the SD card?
HELP!
Nothing? Really?
Really the only thing you can do I believe is put the pics on your computer and then format your SD card then put them back on in their appropriate folder. Pics go in the pictures folder and mpegs go in movies folder. Hope you figure it out.

Android will scan your phone for media files and will show all in the gallery. Now in the gallery you can create albums then drag and drop pictuers or videos into them. Also the camera folder must reside in the DCIM folder.

Exactly, the file structure on your SD card hasn't changed, but gallery app is organizing them the way it wants. What's even better is if you are storing camera pictures on SD card after having stored some on internal memory, now you have two "Camera" items shown in your gallery.
Picasa, by the way, is any pictures you've stored in picasaweb (which may be "none").
You might find a different picture viewing app more to your liking. I've always liked quickpic and now it supports viewing picasa pics as well, which was one of the only reasons to use the stock Gallery. And it's free.
The only remaining reason I have to use the stock Gallery is for those "shot & more" pictures I still want to edit (but that comes with a big bug of its own).
Thanks
Thanks so much for your help! I think I am getting things sorted out. For some reason though when I move the picture around or make any kind of changes, it changes the date from the day it was taken to when I last changed the location. I think that is why all the videos are on the top. Is there anyway to change that back? Also Im not a big fan of the gallery app so I think I'll try quickpick! Ill let you know how it goes!
I successfully transferred the original SD card's content into my 64Gb Sandisk FAT32 using the instructions on https://support.oculus.com/hc/en-us/articles/204363723-Using-Your-Own-microSD-with-the-Samsung-Gear-VR-Innovator-Edition but now all of the video footages that's found within the Oculus folder shows up on my Gallery.
Is there a way to prevent the videos from showing up in my Gallery without interfering with the Gear VR from accessing those files? It's not a big deal but there's 7 folders clustering my Gallery which gets in the way of utilizing my other folders.
Thanks in advance :good:

Try add a .nomedia txt file to the folders
I tried adding it to the Oculus folder and restarted but my gallery still showed the files :\
It needs to be on each folder separate and check if oculus software will still see those folders.

not sure what the difference is between the original SD card and my sandisk 64gb ..

Nope
