I'm working on an Android application that needs to look at what images a user has stored. The problem is that if the user has the sdcard mounted via the USB cable, I can't read the list of images on the disk. Does anyone know of a way to tell if the usb is mounted so that I could just pop up a message informing the user that it won't work?

View 6 Replies View RelatedWell I have a problem and need some help. So for no apparent reason I started getting an error with my sd card last night. At the notification bar, it says the sd card is mounted as read only. The phone gives me the option to try to fix it. It tries without success. I have tried resetting the phone and fidgeting with the card...both with no success. Its frustrating cause I can't take pictures as a result and all I see is that error message! Its an eyesore at the top of my screen.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAnytime my phone tries to do anything that might access the SD card, I get a notification that the card encountered an unexpected problem and was mounted as read-only. After a few searches, it seemed that unmounting and reformatting it might solve the problem. If that didn't help, erasing all phone data might fix the problem. Well, I wasn't able to unmount the SD card for some reason. That option wasn't ghosted out, but clicking on it didn't do anything. Eventually, I decided to just do the factory reset. Then I did a phone storage format.
After that I saw a tip that perhaps removing the card would help. What I did was remove it, booted the phone, and inserted it while it was on. This allowed me to unmount then format the SD card. The first thing I did was try to redownload some apps from the market. First on my list was google maps update. Immediately after clicking to download, I get the same notification that the SD card was mounted as read only as a result of an unexpected error. Given all this, is my card just junk after updating to froyo?

View 5 Replies View RelatedCan an Activity still have read/write access to an SD card after it has been mounted to USB storage (connecting USB and selecting Mount from the resulting notification screen). In other words, does mounting the SD card lock out system access until USB is disconnected. I need to create a live channel between an application and an external USB device and I'm running out of options.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have been running Cyanogen 5.0.5 since yesterday. I always jump back and forth between DM Updater and Clockwork depending on what recovery I need to flash a particular rom, update or kernel. Today I cranked up DM Updater expecting it to ask if I want to update recovery and I am getting a "Your SD card is not mounted" error. My SD card is fine. Just for giggles I went into my clockwork recovery and unmounted and remounted. ROM Manager reports no errors. I am at work so I can't install SB Recovery using my current PC using adb as I normally would. I guess the ROM I want to play with (SB Recovery format) will have to wait.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHaving a new and strange SD card problem.
Was using Astro to browse my SD card to try to open a QuickOffice word file. Got to the folder where the file was located, but then suddenly, Astro closed and returned me to my home screen. Also, got a message on my notification bar that said "Mounted ReadOnly. The SD card has an unexpected problem. Tapping (sic) to recover it."
Ok, well, I tapped where it said to tap and the message went away. Back in to Astro to browse the file and...same result.
Went into Settings and Unmounted the SD card, then remounted it. Back in to Astro to browse the file and...same result!
So now I'm concerned. Used "Gallery" to browse pictures that are on my SD card...no problem. Used QuickOffice to manually open the file I was looking for in the first place...no problem. It seems that only when I go to Astro and browse does this problem occur. BTW, I also tried using Estrong File Explorer and had the same result, so I don't think it's an app thing.
Only thing I've not yet tried is going in to Clockwork Mod and unmounting/remounting SD card. Funny thing is that all my files appear intact, it just seems that for some reason, phone all of a sudden decides that the SD card is mounted "read only" (whatever that means) and is kicking me out. Dunno that I like that but...oh well.
Rooted DINC with Clockwork Mod, stock ROM, no major root apps except SetCPU.
I'm quite new to Android and the Captivate (but not new to operating systems). I ran into an issue that I can't yet figure out, but I wonder if other people have also encountered. With some USB chargers (notably Blackberry chargers), I've noticed that the USB data connection prompt comes up. Regardless of the setting I choose (including canceling the dialog), the internal SD card is unmounted. If I disconnect the USB cable, the internal SD card is STILL unmounted and I don't get an option in the UI to mount it again. I end up having to reboot the phone. Attached is a screen shot of the SD card status screen when this issue occurs. So, what would be a good way to troubleshoot this? Get dmesg output, perhaps?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a nexus 7, OTG cable, flash drive and stickmount installed. As an external storage device this works fine for movies, audio etc.I'm not experienced with android having only previously used it on my touchpad, and wondered if the following was possible.
Is there an app that can essentially clone the externally mounted USB drive so that when installing an app with a large data download i can choose to download the data to the externally mounted usb drive instead of the main device memory. An example, Spiderman has nearly 2GB of data and i would prefer to move it using an app rather than having to continuously move the data file from the root to the external USB using es file explorer.
I have a TF101g transformer. I just recently rooted it and installed Jelly bean with EOS-tf101-20130617-120.zip and gapps_4.2.2_TF101_20130323b.zip Everything seems to be working fine except with the notification area failing to show mounted sd, micro sd and usb drives. When they are inserted into the tablet I see in the notification area that the system is scanning the micro sd card but after it is mounted nothing is there. As a result it is difficult to unmount them except for going to settings and then storage device and then unmount them from there.
With Ice cream android, when I put in any sd cards, the notification area would have the sd cards listed. I could open it with a folder and browse it and I could unmount it also when finished with it.
What I must do to get the sd card listed in the notification area?
I've noticed a special ringtone that is used when your SD card is mounted to your PC. I like it, and would like to use it for my default ringtone, but it doesn't seem to be an option, nor can I find it anywhere in the file system. Also, when I asked the folks at HTC where the file was located, they conveniently dodged my question and and told me how to add new ringtones to my SD card. (not surprised).
View 6 Replies View RelatedI m making an application which requires me to list all the images available on the SD-Card of the phone.
i tried querying the ContentResolver way i.e.
Cursor image = getContentResolver().query(Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, new String[]{Images.Media._ID,Images.Media.DATA,Images.Media.DISPLAY_NAME}, null, null, null);
but without any result. Is there any way i can get the list or if thats not possible then is there any possible intent (e.g. PICK) by which i can allow the user to select a file and then access the path of the file the user selected?
I would be retrieving values from SQLite database and have to display it in a list view. So how should I pass the images out from the database into the list view (in fact, I only save the image uri in db). I am able to save and retrieve images individually and display it on the screen. But how do I pass a bitmap and display it in a list view.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a list of 70 text items with image icons(which are stored in drawables folder).
If I launch application the first time and scroll the list slowly - the exception doesn't occur.
When the application is launched the first time and I scroll the list with 'fling' action the following exception occurs:
COD:.....................
After that, if I kill the application with DDMS, start it again and scroll it with 'fling' action, exception doesn't occur. So the exception arises only if application is installed and launched the first time.
Here is the adapter I use for the list:

Is there a way to avoid the exception? Should I catch the exception and escape the memory somehow?
I need to implement a list view with checkbox and each item should be associated with images.
