If you don't want to void your warranty by rooting, apparently there is a workaround to the SD card problem in KitKat. According to several android forums, you can still use the native File Manager to move photos and music from the internal memory to the SD card and vice versa. For example, if you take a photo with the tablet camera app, it will store them on the SD card. So then if you want to change this photo with a 3rd party app like Pixlr Express, you have to go into the File Manager and move the photo to internal memory so that the 3rd party app can modify it. Then if you want to put it back on the SD card, you have to go through the file manager again! I guess the same thing applies to a music file. KitKat appears to have made things more complicated instead of simplifying things like they said it would! At least you can kind of manage to get around it.

At least you can kind of manage to get around it. my understanding is that other apps can access each others folders as read only but any changes you make to that file will be saved in the app you opened it in. You create a duplicate rather than overwrite the original. Not looked into it much though. Sent from my GT-N5110 using proboards |
