[android-developers] Re: Working Around Samsung Double-SD Problem
Looks close for the Galaxy S, but on my retail Euro version Build.MODEL is GT-I9000. Sugar. Build.PRODUCT and Build.DEVICE have the same value, as well. Double sugar. Also, /sdcard/sd exists even when the external memory card is not installed, in that case, writing to /sdcard/sd places files on the internal memory card 1kg bag of sugar. (the usual rule with a mount point that has not been mounted). The usual rule where ? Default linux it should be an empty directory. So any solution to this is going to be extremely messy in other words. In any case thanks for course for the info.

How about reading /proc/self/mounts or /proc/partitions ...and of course falling back to default if none of that works. You could also bury a user modifiable path string somewhere in a config menu Pent wrote: Looks close for the Galaxy S, but on my retail Euro version Build.MODEL is GT-I9000. Sugar.

Hardcoding paths is always bad.
Put an advanced settings entry (with a disclaimer) in your menu and ask
the user where he wants to save the data. Else save them in getExternal...
On Android 2.2 (GAOSP for Samsung Galaxy) those paths changed to
/mnt/sdcard/ and /mnt/sdcard/sd/ and some apps stopped working. The same
could happen on official GalaxyS Froyo update.
Bye.

So any solution to this is going to be extremely messy in other words. In any case thanks for course for the info. Pent I believe so. Just because some directory (e.g. /sdcard/sd) is listed in /etc/fstab (or whatever file Android uses) as a directory where something might be mounted in the future, doesn't mean that until then, this directory can't have any content. Mounting a device at a directory location hides whatever was in that directory before (in the parent file system). What I actually saw is that My Backup Pro writes its data to /sdcard/sd/rerware/., even though I don't have an external memory card in this phone. -- Kostya Vasilyev -- WiFi Manager + pretty widget -- http://kmansoft.wordpress.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
