Ok I'm finally ready to take this phone back and I wanted to know if it was possible that I could do a complete backup or the closest thing I can do to one from my internal SD card to my external SD card? That way if I ever decide to get an Android phone again I'll have all my apps and settings... Any guidance at all would be appreciated.
Is your phone rooted? If so, you can do a Nandroid nackup via clockwork recovery and then copy the nandroid to external sd or computer to restore later.

Thanks mate. My phone is rooted so I'll do the Nandroid.
you can use a file manager tool on the phone or the pc to just copy stuff from internal SD to external sd.
help with internal sd path and external sd path
I get confused between the internal sd card path and the external sd card path.
It seems plausible you could just copy from the internal sd card to the external, but could someone break this down for me and provide the paths for the internal sd card and the external sd card.
I have astro file manager, perhaps there is another tool that is better and could be suggested.
Thanks in advance
Hey guys I'm planning to replace my stock sd card, I just want to know how to copy all my files (apps+data) to the new sd card? Can titanium back up do all this? or do I need to manually copy all the files in my old sd card to the new sd card (copy and paste method)?
I don't want to start all over again so if anyone can help me.

If you want to be sure just copy all the folders and files from the old card to the new card. That would be enough.

I change my stock 2GB with 8GB, done with just copy-paste.. from stock sdcard copied to computer (also as my backup) then copy to new sdcard.
are you sure that its already enough? how about the datas? like saved games, files etc?
1.- Remove sdcard from OB.
2.- Copy all the stuff to your computer. A simple copy-paste.
3.- Copy from your computer to the new sd card.
4.- Insert the new sd card and enjoy.

Don't worry, the phone still read the same as before from sdcard. My game "Asphalt 5 HD" is still working after the data moved to new sdcard.
Well, you should try it for sure...
I've forgotten something very important!!!!!!
2.1.- Insert the new sd card into your OB.
2.2.- Format it through settings.
2.3.- Remove the card.
Complete!

¿¿¿¿¿?????
There's not much to elaborate on this matter, I'll try to put it as simple as possible:
1. Unmount old SD card in Android
2. Pull off an old SD card (the device doesn't need to be switched off)
3. Using microSD/SD card adapter, copy old SD card content to your PC.
4. Put new SD card in Android device.
5. Unmount it in Settings/SD Card
6. Format it in this menu
7. Pull off a new SD card.
8. Using microSD/SD card adapter, copy old SD content from PC to your new SD
9. Put new SD card in Android device.
DONE
I didn't go through 4-7, but formatted new SD card as FAT32 in PC, and it works well.
thanks for all the help guys.

I am using a 2gb external micro SD card installed in my Z1 and I am waiting on a 32gb to be delivered, I am wanting to know will I just be able to copy the recovery files over to the new card or will I have to use the recovery installer again, In order for it to work?
Recovery necessary to work files are not on sdcard so you can able to change it without worries
After installing CM12 on my Xperia V, I've moved some apps to my internal sd card (sdcard0), they work well and everything is fine.
Now when i insert external sd card to my phone , all apps moved to sdcard0 are disappeared, when i remove my external sd card and turn on my phone again the apps back again. I want to use my external sd card, can you help me?
Note: when i connect my ext sd card to computer i find android_secure folder.
Did it happen on any ROM u are using? Try to format sd card via pc and put it into ur phone and reinstall the apps with external card inserted in phone.

This is my first ROM.
I've tried formatting the sd card and the problem still not solved. The apps were installed on the external card before " by using Link2SD" but i want them on the internal storage
Note: When i try to move an app to sd card using normal app manager when the ext sd card inserted, they move to the ext card not sdcard0. so that's why i move them when ext card not inserted, they moved well but when i insert my sd card back they disappear.
