Hi
Samsung!
Read Jon's explanation here:
http://mono-for-android.1047100.n5.nabble.com/detect-SD-Card-path-td5710218.html
there are few workarounds. See if those help
cheers

Another Update:
Scenario: Samsung GS2 without SD card
External storage path: /mnt/sdcard
System tells me I've got 6.34gb of free space. API tells me that I
have 175922186204271mb of free space (they should be 6492.16mb)

Android SDK say:
Every Android-compatible device supports a shared "external
storage" that you can use to save files. This can be a removable
storage media (such as an SD card) or an internal (non-removable)
storage.
So basically calling *Environment.ExternalStorageDirectory* should
return a valid path for either for *removable* or *internal*
storage right?
I'am quite sure about this because my Samsung G2 doesn't have a SD
card and I'm getting reasonable values. :(
So my first question: "Is StatFS working on JellyBean?" remains
valid!

Ok, I think I've discovered what's the problem is. My
bad knowledge of android :(
Tests have been done on a device which has not a real SD card.
I'm a bit confused on how android defines spaces where apps
can write into it (local and external).
I need to investigate more. Any help is appreciate on
explaining which options are available for an android app on
"where I can write files"

Hi,
I'm developing an app which on the first run it will
download a big file from FTP. Before the download
begin, the user is asked where to save the file. One
can use either local or external storage.
When the user select "external storage" the app will
use as root the
*Application.Context.ExternalCacheDir.Path* variable.
That is! In this way all content written into this
folder *will be deleted* once the app is removed from
the device.
Here my code to get available storage size:
*string *external_path =
Path.Combine(*Application.Context.ExternalCacheDir.Path*,
"/mypath");
*
*
*ulong *totalFreeSpace = 0;
*StatFs *stats = *new* Stats(external_path);
totalFreeSpace = (*ulong*)stats.AvailableBlocks *
stats.BlocksSize;
All this stuff is good on Android +2.2. I'm facing a
strange behavior ONLY on JellyBean. It seems that
StatFs will return the same available blocks value for
either internal (use*Application.Context.FilesDir.Path
*in place of
*Application.Context.ExternalCacheDir* )or external path.
Anyone can confirm this? Am I missing something?
thanks
Francesco
