I'm currently running OSMAnd+ 2.3.5 in Jellybean very nicely on tablet with 
about 63mb of app on internal storage and 2gb offline map files on microSD, 
updating the map files is flawless.  I'm getting a new Lollipop phone, 
understanding that Android has restored external file access that it 
removed with KitKat, hoping it's at least back to Jellybean-style file 
access.  

*1. My memory is shaky but I believe in Jellybean I manually created an 
"osmand" empty folder on the microSD and in settings was easily able to 
identify that as the storage location.  The Setting for my tablet in 2.3.5 
is currently under "Data Storage Folder" and I've set it to 
"/storage/sdcard_ext/osmand"  - is it as simple as that in Lollipop?*

*2. If so, I'd also like to save time by copying over the contents of my 
Jellybean microSD to  the new phone's microSD - would that work?*

(Optimally, of course, I'd like to move the whole shebang to external 
storage or the new "Flex" SD card storage of Marshmallow, but got too good 
a price for this phone, and I'm a cheapskate.  My old Gingerbread phone 
does this beautifully for OSMand 1.9.5 but I'm putting it out to pasture.)  

I'd appreciate any informed advice or being steered to guidance someplace 
else.  I've searched but haven't found up to date steps for Lollipop, as 
opposed to lots of trouble with KitKat.  Thanks.
