I have been searching for answers to this question, but found none. The Environment method getExternalStoragePublicDirectory() normally seems to returns "/mnt/sdcard", regardless of whether the sdcard is mounted or not. It is easy to detect if it is unmounted, but in that case it is NOT so easy to find out WHERE to save data. If the sdcard is unmounted, writing to "/mnt/sdcard" normally fails.
For devices which emulate the sdcard (in case it is unmounted), there often (?) seem to exist a directory "/mnt/emmc", but it is never returned by any Environment method, and I am not sure that it is so commonly used that I can rely on it for all devices (with no sdcard). As this may be a general problem for many of us, I hope that someone has a solution.
