Your user is very clever, because I get a message saying "Copying failed" when trying to copy to this second memory card with ES on my S.
There is a built-in app that lets you transfer files to and from this memory card, and that's it. As far as rights go, here is what I see. Note the different owners. This is 4.0.3. >>> kman@ivy:~$ adb shell ls -l /mnt drwxr-xr-x root system 2012-08-14 11:23 asec drwxr-xr-x root system 2012-08-14 11:23 obb d---rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 1970-01-01 04:00 sdcard d---rwxr-x system media_rw 1970-01-01 04:00 sdcard2 drwx------ root root 2012-08-14 11:23 secure d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk1 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk2 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk3 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk4 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk5 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk6 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk7 d--------- system system 2012-08-14 11:23 usbdisk8 <<< >>> kman@ivy:~$ adb shell ls -l /mnt/sdcard d---rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 2011-09-27 11:05 Alarms d---rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 2011-08-17 07:40 Android <<< >>> kman@ivy:~$ adb shell ls -l /mnt/sdcard2 d---rwxr-x system media_rw 2012-02-06 19:30 LOST.DIR d---rwxr-x system media_rw 2012-04-25 18:01 transferred <<< -- K 2012/8/14 Zsolt Vasvari <[email protected]> > I know this is probably not the best place to ask, but I cannot think of a > better one. > > The Sony Tablet S uses an "external" storage, which is actually internal. > It's real SD card is on some other path.
