mediahub downloads to sd card? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Is it possible to move movies purchased thru media hub to the sd card? I've got that free download of the avengers taking up over 2gb of my internal storage right now and can't find an option to do it. I'd imagine I could do it manually somehow, but how and will it affect anything with playback?
Thanks!

Yea, it's been said on the other Avengers threads
You need to change the settings to show hidden files, go your file manager under settings, and you will see that option
Next you need to find. SamsungMediahub open it, and find the " Sd" or Hd" file and move it to the extSdcard

NP,
It worked the same on my internal memory as it does on my extSdcard, little laggy but I turn on my Wifi like some one mention on the other thread and it worked better

Internal storage reading incorrectly..?

I just went through and cleared a few gigs of crap and old backups off my internal storage, but when I check how much space is available, it doesn't reflect this. It says I only have 700mbs available still, but the bar and numbers clearly indicate I should have more than that. Here's a screen shot for a better idea of what's going on http://www.imgur.com/sIt8G.png
Has anyone else had this problem before or know how I can fix it?

Bump.. I have booted inti recovery and cleared cache in hopes of it cleaning it up, but nothing. I also searched Play for a sd card clean up app, I found sd maid, but no success there either. I'm really trying to avoid backing up everything and wiping the card..

Perfect. Thanks alot for that link, that thread linked to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33918194 and seems to answer my question.

Music to external sd

I Decided to move all my music to my ext. Sd card. I went into root explorer and just moved the whole folder over. I when I go to my storage now, it shows that the 1.24 gigs of music was sucxefully transfered to external but the 1.24 gigs still shows up as misc. On my internal sd. I went to the dcim folder and there are no remnants of any of it. I cleared my dalvik and even used sd maid pro, and still no luck. any ideas of why it's still showing up on my internal? Also my cover art doesn't show up on ayer pro anymore T. Y. I. A:beer:

I'm very interested in this too! My only lasting complaint with my phone is not being able to have Google Music save music to the external card. If anyone can help figure this out I'd be so happy.
I love Google and android but I hate how they keep pushing external cards away and pushing the cloud so hard.

a duplicate of the /sdcard also resides at /data/media. you can only access this folded if you are rooted and have a root enabled file system browser like es file explorer.
if you are rooted, you can safely delete the duplicate media folder from that directory as well.

Are you sure it's your music? If you click on "Miscellaneous files", it shows you exactly what it's counting and how much space it takes.
(I didn't know that until I just tried it now, so thanks!)

What is changing to a new rom going to do for him? If his music is gone it's gone... Unless I'm missing something? Why isn't your music on your computer or somewhere else? How did you get it on your phone, lol? If it some where and you can't find it, pull everything from your storage places and put them on your PC and search both files with in your computer search index and see if you can find them... If they are there, then create a folder named /music and you will good to go. If they aren't there then get new music or however you got them there in the first place.

So i downloaded all of my musics whitin my device reason i never store music on my pc is because i barely do use it...
I guess i could do that too but i once remember i restored an backup and everything was in its place ? Its weird..
Also since i use various apps to get my music they are in different folders there js nothing inside my /music folder is this anything bad ?
I could download the music back also but takes quite a while + my lost game datas and precious images :/

I would start putting the music somehwere other then only on phone storage, just in case. I've accidentally wiped internal storage once, and I've had External sdcards go bad or just randomly out of no where lose all data in it. make a dropbox and do TiBu once a week and move them there your self with some type of file manager if you don't wanna pay the money for Titanium Backup pro. I also bet all your stuff is there you are just looking in the wrong places. What file manager are you using to look for your "lost stuff"?

list all the areas you are looking for the media... what is your recovery?
Aokp is awesome ROM. I dont mean to be rude but if you think those files are still there (in your phone) ;install different ROm or restore backup and pull al data from it. And wipe both internal and external cards. Amd install aokp and enter those files again via PC.

Move app additional files to sd card?

Im running Goodness Noteworthy 1.06 with Perseus kernel on my Sprint Note 2. I've looked online and from what I understand there is no way to move apps to the sdcard after the jellybean update. I'm really just needing the additional files the apps download like the 1+gb that you have to download for Need For Speed or N.O.V.A. moved to my external 16gb micro sdcard so my internal memory isn't so low. Ive tried the app Folder Mount from the play store and it didn't seem to work. Has anyone found a way to get the files to the sdcard and the game still be able to read them? Thanks!

folder mount worked perfectly for me. i had about 12gb worth of game data from gameloft and ea (incl nfs most wanted and realracing 3) moved to the sd card with this app and the games played perfectly. at the moment im having issues with my sdcard writing anymore and im hoping that doing this folder mount, it didnt mess my card up. the games have been working for a couple months now. i know this isnt much help but i thought i'd share my experience.

good luck man. here is the thread by the dev incase you havent read some faq's yet. it really did work well for me when i used it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192122
I use My Drives to find the space hogging files. It's free.
FolderMount, DirectoryBind and so forth can give funny readings on the when you look at storage. You literarely have not the storage used and available before and after binding. Most of the file explorers will show the binded file in the original location. It's been moved, but what you're seeing is more a holding marker.
I figured out how to use Folder mount and its working good. I was just not mounting the data by clicking on the paperclip button lol. Thanks guys.

Titanium backup

How do I change my backup folder location to external SD card. I changed it but when I go to titanium backup folder on external SD card after doing a backup, there is no backup. I emailed the developer and got troubleshooting link and nothing helped. Sent him another email but no reply. Sucks cause I paid the money for the license. Any help will be appreciated.

Why don't you think simple and basic. Hook phone up to pc and transfer there. No special apps or complex set of directions to follow.

When I did that Titanium Backup created a new file on the internal drive and could not see the moved back up. Also the file will not let you manually add APK files.
I haven't found a way to change the backup path either.
You guys are really funny. In 5 seconds I found like over 30 threads by using search. On google I found instructions and video. Lmao.
Open app. Click bottom right. Says problem?. Click center button on bottom that says preference. Change back up path.. It really not hard if you take the time to search and read.
BAD ASS G3
A simple answer would suffice. If YOU bothered to read the OP, you would notice that I changed the backup location to the external SD and it's not saving them there. If you don't have a helpful reply and wanna just be a [email protected]@, don't reply to my posts. That's why I hate posting questions on this forum, everyone likes to make people look stupid.

I have done the SDfix, unistalled and reinstalled - no dice
Since you are asking in questions and help, I'll give it a whirl. I don't KNOW this is the answer, but it is something to try. KK blocks access to directories that haven't been created by the app in question. Did you get TiBu to create a new directory for backups? Or did you select a directory that already existed? You might try a new directory with a different name on the external card. Good luck.
edit: FYI, just tried this and it works. The method to browse a folder in TiBu is a little obscure. Choose backup folder under preferences, then push the back key. You'll see folders pop up in the window. The first 'folder' is actually a key to make a new folder. Do this on the SD card, and it worked for me.
Yep, gotta create the new folder using titanium.
