[Q] Downloading torrents to SD card - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I have a Sony Xperia Z1 (C6903) rooted and running on CM11.
My problem is that I can't use my SD card as download directory for downloading torrents.
This problem has existed since Kitkat 4.4
Is there any way around this?
Thanks in advance!

Just use search to find the thread in the general section about enabling third party apps to write to the SDcard.
there is also an app in google play that will do it. Again, search is a useful tool to find that.

Could use foldermount or some other apps out there which moves the app to the SD itself.

go play store download Sdcard fix 4.4 first and then go Google search~Directory Bind this app need root use Directory Bind this app to bind your download local

Android doesn't support App2sd (for latest android OS i think since ICS)
so u can just install app on internal and store media on external
and i think 11GB is enough to have 4-5 High Quality Game and lots of apps
i had ~30 games on SG3 include at least 5 HD games like NFS, FIFA, six gun, sport car chlngs and .......................
and at least 100 applications
So don't think about space.
>> anyway if u want it So u can Root ur phone and use some apps that merge ur internal with external memory.
But i suggest after root install custom rom and then do it.
u can find how to root and another topic u need if search on threads
:good:

[Q] Android 4.3 Xperia

Hello, I have (little) question about the following:
I have updated my phone to a Android 4.3 ROM, now i really want the Sony Walkman app, and the sony album app and movies,
I searched for a flashable ZIP, and found something, I flashed it, i saw the apps, but the only thing what was working was the Movies app, ( i got Sony Walkman has stopped working, When opening) and i guess it is because i am at Android 4.3,
Are there any ways to get Xperia Walkman app on Android 4.3?
Also another question: If i already have 4.3 on my phone, do i need to flash the FTF Files for 4.3 again etc. ( and wipe everything etc.)
( i know normally you dont have to, because you are already at that Android version, but now because of this is 4.3, an unreleased version, i was wondering if this was the case too, because i dont know if all ROMS are sharing one Android version, or if every rom uses a different one
Thanks for helping me out!

I'm running Android 4.3 on my Xperia Z (SuperHanss' excellent Rooted, Deodexed & Zipaligned Stock rom) and when I try to open the following url's, which are Dutch radio shows, I'm unable to load them.
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/SpijkersMetKoppen/~3/21dFPFdDvl0/411633.mp3
http://radiobox2.omroep.nl/audiofragment/file/146462/fragment.mp3
They use a protected url that transforms when you open it in a web browser, on a pc for instance, but it won't work on my Z. However, it does work on other Android devices, like the Huawei P6 and the Z2, so I'm wondering if this is a problem with the Xperia Z and they way it handles 'protected' url's or if it has something to do with the ROM I'm using.
Can anyone please try to load the shows (please, only try when you're on wi-fi, as the files are several mb's) to see if it works?
Many thanks!

Upgrade to 4.4.2

Hey guys, so I just received a notification in Update Center that 4.4.2 is available for my ZR.
I must say,I'm quite happy with 4.3 so I got a few questions:
1. Has the Google Play Services bug with battery drain been finally solved? I checked the thread but there seem to be still some people which have massive battery drain?
2. How much does this new SD card restriction affect the phone(your experiences)?
3. If I decide to root it with Towelroot: Let's say in one week we get 4.4.4. Can I simply update my ZR?
Thanks in advance!

Well to answer all of your questions,
1. No, the issue still persists but there are work arounds for it.
2. The restriction can be lifted using different mods as well. (I have personally used xposed module for it)
3. You won't be able to update after rooting the device using OTA. For that you would have to download FTF and then only you would be able to update it.
Press Thanks if I helped....

[Q] Question: Which app create baidu folder in internal memory?

After upgrade to latest version of XZ, I found baidu folder in internal memory. Try to delete it and it appear again. Any know which app create that folder and can I uninstall or freeze it?
Many THX.
My Xperia creates it. It also connects to a Baidu server in China. I assume Sony leased server space from Baidu for the service, but I'd rather that a service that has full access to many features of my device and my data such as that only connected to a Sony server and not a third party.
If you have root, just freeze it with Titanium Backup and that prevents it from running and creating the directory.

My Xperia. Sony recently confirmed it's not sending any data though, so it's really nothing to worry about.
