I have a Moto G 2014. I have updated to 5.01. I can't find the option to encrypt the SD card. Is this possible? If not what are my alternatives?
Thanks.

I recently acquired a 64GB USB flash drive (Kingston USB 2.0 Data Traveler micro). The drive originally came formatted in FAT32. It worked fine on my 2013 Nexus 7 (stock rooted) with Chainfire's Stickmount app, but not on my Verizon DE moto x (stock rooted). Basically, the x won't recognize that a drive is attached at all and it won't mount. I tried reformatting the flash drive in NTFS and exFAT, but still wouldn't work moto x. I have a 2GB flash drive that works just fine on the moto x in FAT, FAT32, and NTFS, so I know the moto x will read drives in those formats.
I was wondering if the problems I'm having with the 64GB drive on the moto x have to do with the storage size or if it's something else with this particular brand/model flash drive. Before I buy another 64GB drive I was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems or successes in getting a 64GB flash drive to work with the moto x.
Since nobody has answered you and I've been searching for answers, the Sandisk 64GB Dual USB drive I just picked up works on my Moto X running 4.4.2. Paragon NTFS&HFS+ is necessary because my card is still exFat. Stickmount isn't necessary with 4.4.2 but it is with 4.4. The only issue I have is trying to figure out how to have the USB drive show up as an external drive instead of a virtual folder within the internal sd card.
Hello,
so, I came across the following article:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/android-5-0-sd-cards/
Now, I am wondering:
How exactly is external SD card storage handled on the Motorola Moto G 2nd Gen when having upgraded to Lollipop?
Can you put all apps onto an external SD card?
And does it have to be done manually for each app? Or does it happen automatically?
And what about encryption?
Does the Motorola Moto G 2nd Gen with Lollipop have an option to encrypt the external SD card storage?
Or can you only encrypt the device storage?
It would be much appreciated if someone could elaborate on this.
PS:
And could someone please tell how much device storage is left on a Lollipop updated Motorola Moto G 2nd Gen with 8 GB of device storage?
Regards
Anyone?
No, cannot move all apps to SD card...I have not tried encrypting the storage yet
As for available space, I have 3.07gb available after installing about 30 apps and caching two radio stations in slacker.
Several times one could read that Google restricted access to the external SD card for Android 4.4, so that writing is only possible for some app inside its personal folder. But with Total Commander I can write everywhere on the sd card. My german Moto G 2014 with Android 4.4.4 is not rooted (by now).
Did Motorola change the platform.xml in a very user-friendly way or what is the reason that I can write to it?
Hi, I have rooted Blu Dash 4.5 with a custom rom that uses the sd card as internal memory.I have a 16 gb card installed and it works great. I was wondering if anyone has written a custom rom for the Moto G 2nd gen that has this option.And if so what is it called?
SO i installed BLissPop Rom and i get the message Sdcard unmounted and its not mounting at all. I went to setting-Storage ..The Mount SD CARD OPTION IS GRAYED OUT. Pls Help ASAP. I have XT-1068 running MOto G 2 .
Update to latest build. Issue has been fixed.
