Yes, so? Rooting doesn't change where your downloads go, it just lets apps that need root get it.

That's now the default "SD card" If an app can only refer to "the SD card" and doesn't allow you to choose which one (IOW, it was designed before the "brilliant" decision to call some internal storage "sd0"), that's the "card"" it uses.

[/QUOTE]adb pushes app to phone...C:\>adb push C:\>Desktop\someapp\ /sdcard/[/QUOTE]You should see a drive for your phone (say F:) and 2 folders on that drive, Card and Phone. Card is the external card, Phone is the internal card.

adb pushes to /<wherever you point it>, so if you tell it to put to /mnt/extSdCard (or whatever your phone calls it), it'll push to the external card.
 
just notice but pc can not read phone system apps or files,just 4gb of internal storage? debugging enable ,connect to pc as media device...adb does detect my phone.
 
Normal since ICS. Still has nothing to do with using the external SD card with apps that can't access it.

BTW, you can tell adb to push to the external card. Run Total Commander and look at the path to the external card, then use that path (capitalization counts) as the destination.

As for downloads, make a download folder on the external card. When you download a file, copy it to the external card, then delete it from internal storage.

One of these days, Google will get it right.
