Not a bad idea. Thanks for your suggestion. I'll add that to the todo list. In the meantime, you can email me so that I can send beta versions your way when I get to implement that :) Of course it'll all be subject to LG's implementation and whether they're sending the appropriate broadcasts when the OTG drive is mounted.

Yea, hence the BETA tag. I'm not really guaranteeing or supporting that feature. Best way to go would be to place a ".nomedia" file in your destination. Android's media crawler won't scan it that way. Just make sure you place the .nomedia file in a level higher in the path so that it won't get replicated across to your internal mirror.

e.g.:

internal: /storage/emulated/0/my_awesome_pics

external: /storage/sdcard1/gallery_binds/my_awesome_pics

then place an empty file called ".nomedia" in /storage/gallery/binds/ and you should be all set.

Yea, no support for anything unofficial at the moment. Most of these roms have improper sdcard implementation that even regular apps aren't able to write to /storage/sdcard1 (without the help of FM). I've fixed a cm11 build myself for the LG E980 where I fixed the sdcard mountpoints in the ROM, and guess what, fm works. So at the moment, no FM support for anything tagged "unofficial" with KK.
[Android Software Development] sarakha63:
Helllo madmack thanks for your response. For the ability to automount on USB plug i will dare t like to test your betas as i think it could be a great feature for all devices without sdcard like my LG G2.

For the second part where i said i also had the issue for apps not writing on mounted folder, i didn't see that rascal had a custom rom. In my case i have stock LG G2 rom. And i did the test with yatse (the xbmc remote) i did mount the cache folder and yatse saw it and used it but when i said to yatse to cache all my tvshows images for example it did the work (it seemed to do so as i saw the progress bar progressively reach 100%) but at the end there was no more cache in mounted folder neither in internal.

I am really really interested on the first point for automount on usb inserted (i you have betas or alternative ideas)

And i wonder if you have ideas for the second part

thanks again for all your work

I will for sure purchase pro
[Android Software Development] bsoplinger:
Pro sn't pro :(

I went to add a new folder pairing today and I get a warning that I must purchase Pro to add. But I'm looking at a dozen pairings already there and working. So the app must know at some level that its the Pro version. I even tried to by it again just to get around the problem but the Play Store won't let me because I've already purchased it. Tried clearing cache, data and even uninstall then reinstall.

HELP!?!

ok for some reason Foldermount v2.3.11 can't read the obb files. It sees the smaller ones in the "Apps Analyzer" but won't see the obb
[Android Software Development] snake2332:
Just wanted to mention that the boot-loops I was experiencing on my Note 10.1 2014 were actually caused by the standard "move to SD card" function of Android. I didn't realize I had a bunch of apps doing this, putting their files in /extSDcard/.android_secure/ (the files in this folder aren't visible in Root Explorer or ES File Explorer unless there is a setting to show them that I am missing). Once I moved these apps back to "device storage", I could reboot fine without any boot-loops. Prior to doing this, it would boot-loop every time until I removed the mem card.

Then I unmounted my dozen or so individual folders beneath /obb/ and instead mounted the whole /obb/ folder and said "yes" when prompted to move files. That was a mistake, as it proceeded to actually delete the contents of all the /extSDcard/android/data/obb/*/ folders. Maybe it was moving from /sdcard/android/data/obb/, which were blank directories since i had previously moved their contents to /extSDcard/. Anyway, my mistake, not FolderMount's. Though it would be nice if it could detect someone doing this and maybe prompt you with "destination contains files already. do you wish to merge or overwrite", but again it's no big deal if you just think about what you're doing instead of dinking around at 2am like I was doing.

[Android Software Development] easycompany:
Hello,

First time using this app and I'm having a lot of trouble getting folders to link.

I have a Nexus 7 (8GB) first generation, rooted and all. Running stock KitKat. FolderMount 2.3.11 Premium.

I've tried a number of different file paths but none seem to be working, either the link button will just continue to go in a circle and never turn green or there's a notification pop-up that says Unknown Error.

My external SDCard (via OTG) is mounted with stickmount at /sdcard/usbStorage/sdb1

I've tried

Source: /mnt/shell/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.madfingergames.deadtrigger

Destination: /mnt/shell/emulated/0/usbStorage/sdb1/apps

But when I click the Check Mark, there's a notification that says Unknown Error DT and nothing was moved.

Also tried

Source: /storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.madfingergames.deadtrigger

Destination: /storage/emulated/0/usbStorage/sdb1/apps

This time, the obb file was moved. However, when I click the link button, it never turns green.

Can someone shed some light on my problem? Thanks in advance!

How long does it take to mount an app?

I'm asking because I would need to mount many and I'm worried it would decrease performance.
[Android Software Development] alberto0o:
Nice app, couldnt find any one like this for my ascend p6, i tested it and later bought, now i have a lot of space and can install everything!
[Android Software Development] egingell:
The only lengthy bit is the initial file movement when you first setup the pair(s).

And there will be a performance difference since the app which had its files moved will be pulling them from the external SD card instead of the internal; however, you probably won't even notice.

Is there a way to bind data that is already on the sdcard to the apps.

For example, I have the Fifa 14 obb on my external storage as i moved using this app. However, i moved to a rom without backing up the mounts.

so can i locate the file on the external and mount it to the app? As it saves downloading the data again then overwriting the data on the external sd.

[Android Software Development] egingell:
All you need to do is resetup the original pair, but before you do that, delete any files in the source location that may have already been downloaded or move the files from the destination to a temporary location and move them back after setting up the pair.

[Android Software Development] madmack:
safestrap creates a new partition in your mmc storage iirc so your actual internal sdcard data is not in /data/media but in /datadata or something like that. Change your sources to be somewhere in that subdirectory and it should work fine. I can't support such a feature in FM as you can imagine because safestrap is hacky and unconventional.

change your sources to be in /storage/emulated/0 (never change that one!) but make your destination be somewhere in /data/media/0/usbStorage/sdb1/apps or wherever ChainFire is actually mounting your usb stick. It should work just fine.
[Android Software Development] easycompany:
Unfortunately it's still not working. It just says Unknown error (Dead Trigger) in the notification pulldown.

Folder Mount PRO

Hello .. I Want To Buy PRO Version Of Folder Mount ..

I Have 2 Questions:

1) I Must Buy It Every Time When I Will Update My Device Or Reset It? Or It Will Be Always "license key" For My Device ?

2) My Device's gmail account is not my paypal (hotmail) mail ... is it ok ?

Sorry For My English :)

No, you don't need to repurchase it. You just need the license key you got/get from PayPal. And your PayPal account is independent from your Google account. There's no reason it needs to be the same email address.

Edit: P.S. If you back up Folder Mount using either the built-in method or an external solution (Titanium Backup, nand, etc.), then you can just restore it and your premium status will also be restored. That is unless you buy/bought it via Google Play and try to restore it to a device with a different Google account.

Do you have any idea

Thanks

Do you have any clue as why data are not written on mounted folder on LG stock firmwares. (as this make the app unusefull as progession on games or apps are not saved

[Android Software Development] madmack:
Just want to add a minor point which is that if you use TitaniumBackup or whatever to backup the app and you're using a license key to activate, when restoring, the email associated with the key must be registered on the phone (android settings > accounts) otherwise your restore operation won't resolve to the premium status. The keys given are all associated to one email account.

Send me a bug repot (via email) and let's have a look.

well, most likely because FM thinks that this folder is already pinned. This shouldn't be happening though, does it still happen even after a reboot? Try this: unpin all folder pairs, go to apps analyzer, and "refresh".

Done. Your mount points look good to me. The issue is with the reporting of the whatever app you posted a screenshot of, not FM's.

you tried waiting a little while? sometimes the initial media scan can take a little while especially if you have a lot of images/videos. Try checking after 15m if the pins are still gray after a reboot?

one more thing.. when you click on PIN, FolderMount retries to remount your external sdcard with the correct permission and gives up if it couldn't. In your case, even though the green pins are shown, the external sdcard is not mounted correctly and that is most likely due to it being in use by some other app. Precisely why the boot mount process failed (or still waits).

What should I do?

Can you tell me what is the process of repairing and applying the repair patch so maybe I could undo the process in Aroma file manager from recovery? For example maybe I could manually delete the patch files or something.
