Changing default pictures to save to SD card - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Hey guys is there a way to change default pics other than from camera to save to the SD card ?
So screenshots ... images from whatsapp or telegram etc .
Can we not set them somehow to save directly to the SD card by default ?

Camera Saving to Card

So I have searched the forums multiple times and didn't find a solution to this problem. Whenever I take a picture with the camera and have it set save to card it saves it to card then 2 seconds later the picture cannot be found on the card at all. Everything else on the card can be found on the card like music, ect. I have used the SD fix but am still having this issue. Please help. Thanks.
What card are you using? The original or one bought on ie. ebay?
I am using a new 8gb one and everytime a take a picture the photo only stays on the card for a moment then dissapears.

Apply sdcard fix.
Small tips
Use the filemanager and delete the DCIM folder. The camera recreates the folder and you'll be able to save photos to card again.

Photos are saved to the SD card.
if you install a file manager you will find them in a folder titled DCIM

I've seen where apps can be moved to the sd card but normally it's not by default. But as far as roms go some have things which are similar which have the ability to move to sd but samsung in general seems to be a bit weary on having them there by default

Some roms do include that option, I've found personally on my own tab 2 that the swap still somehow manages to not completely work like it should.

Download to SD card option?

When I download files they are stored automatically to the internal storage, is there a way to download files to my external SD card automatically?
Haven't received my phone yet so I can't answer your question directly but you could use Redirect (Pro) from Play Store to move and sort them after they are downloaded

The SD card is NOT for read/write access in this phone. Its solely for pics you may already have on the card and or stored music. Once you put the sd card in the phone allows you to save any new pics and videos to SD card. Unless you root, you cannot use the sd card the way you're trying to use it.

Not quite true, speaking for the global model, go into settings , then applications followed by application manager, tap on the application you want to move, then tap on storage and finally you will see the change dialogue. This will give you the option to move to sd
Sorry im only speaking of the us model with snapdragon 820.

Hmmm, thanks for the awnsers, I have Exynos btw, yeah moving apps is an option but might slow down the performance.
I actually mean downloading files from internet, onedrive etc. everytime I download documents and images I have to move them manually to my SD card.�� That's a pity, but I have to deal with it or use a third party app.
I'm using the Canadian carriers snapdragon 820 and can move some, not all app data to sd card.
Settings, storage, used, apps.
For the most part the larger apps will allow me to move data to sd card

Yeah, I might try that, I have a fast SD (Samsung pro +) and I see no need to remove my SD card.

Your photos and videos should be under Camera if taken with it, there is a little icon on the folder if it's external. Otherwise in their respective folders. The Gallery has both your internal and external medias per default (not even sure it can be changed, unless you manually hide them). I'm thinking your SD card might be bad, which would also explain the high memory notification you get on reboot. Backup what's on it to your pc or other device, format it and copy the stuff that you need/want back on it.

Do you still get the high memory notification after formatting? If so, test something: Format the sd card, put it in your phone with nothing on it and reboot to see if you get the notification. If you don't, the issue is one or a few of your files on it. If you do tho, the sd card is faulty or simply doesn't play well with the S7.

Sounds like you had a faulty device. The issue you've experienced are quite isolated. Sucks though cause it's a great device
