    Just wondering is it possible to change the default storage location from the internal memory to an sd card, I'd like to keep all my contacts, music, videos & photos on my sd card for easy backup and updating software..


    can this be done?

    Stock Samsung rom? If yes then go into camera , settings and change default storage. You can connect you phone to a pc , move all the music to the sd card and it will find it there from then on.

    You can't move contacts. Are you using gmail? if then don't bother even thinking about contacts - they are already backed up to the cloud.

    I'm on stock ROM, I hsve gone into camera settings and cant find the storage location option? I'm on jellybean 4.1.1 if that helps

    I'm not using gmail but I will switch over to it


    Is there anyway to change the default storage location for music downloads, using music wizard and such?

    with the camera it seems an odd one,

    some people have the option menu "save to" option and from here you can select SD card.

    However others like myself (although i am running custom rom) does not show this option (4.1.2)
