External card invisible on Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P5200 w/ 32GB sd #362

kelson42 commented 7 years ago

On a Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P5200 with an external SD card in it, a user reported that this external storage device is not visible in the settings as download location. He had only the tablet internal storage available in the list. As a consquence, he needed to use an external computer to download first the content (before transferring it to the table), which is a really not user friendly process.

He also told use that the mounting point of his SD card seems to be /storage/extSdCard/

I guess the file system might be case sensitive. I can add the weird cased path and see if it helps the affected user.

Android filesystem is ext(4) and is consequently case sensitive. So it is really important that all the possible paths are reviewed regarding that information.
