Help Burst Photos wont save to MicroSD

Check this out on your phone, you set your pictures through camera settings to save to MicroSD memory, and your single shot, hdr pics save to the Camera Roll on your MicroSD, but any burst shots are saved onto your system memory. And when you open your gallery they are separated as such. Anyone know if this is fixable to have all camera pics saved to MicroSD?

I don't have that phone, so don't know if you can do that with the stock app, but if you download/install Astro File Manager from the Google Play Store, you will have the option to move all of your photos to the external SD card, or anywhere you want them.
 
This is probably because of the speed requirement for burst mode pictures. If the card is a slow one it probably couldn't keep up.
 
It looks like it is meant to be that way. The "where to store the images" option is greyed out and defaulted to "phone" when you choose the burst more setting.
 
Yeah got off the phone with Samsung and they told me the same thing, to prevent processor slow down trying to catch up with the micro sd, they disabled that feature, however there is a way around it after rooting your phone. Got to go into the file system of the camera app and you can manually add the destination folder. Took a while but was able to have all pics now saved in MicroSD card, and I experiance no slowing at all with my level 10 Samsung Micro SD card.

Don't suppose you could tell me how you did this? Got into the file system of the camera app. I don't want to cock things up and the way you say it took a while leads me to believe it may not have been a simple process. Would appreciate a bit of guidance..
Thanks a lot
