These are memory in my SAMSUNG TAB2.
1-Internal
2-Sdcard
3-**Extrenal_sdcard**(Removable memory) don't be confuse between sdcard and Extrenal_sdcard.
Extrenal_sdcard is micro sd card which we can remove from tab.
I was trying to create SQLite Database inside the Extrenal_sdcard(Removable).
But i didn't got success.
I was trying to do like what we do in Sdcard.
Environment.getExternalStorageState() +filename
but for Extrenal_sdcard(Removable) it was not working.
is it possible what i am trying to do or NOT.
please assist me.
Do not provide the link related How to create database in sdcard.

WE need to provide this path for External Micro Sd card.
"/mnt/name_of_your_card/your_dbfile"
example:-
"/mnt/MyExternal_Card/My_database"
Thanks to this link.

Sorry if this question have been asked before . But i didnt understand . Can any one give me good explanation of it with an example . what is difference between both of them isExternalStorageRemovable and isExternalStorageEmulated
In old android devices external storage was directed to SD card that you could physically remove. In new android devices external storage is directed to a directory on the data partition (with FUSE on top of it) - an emulated SD card.
So, isExternalStorageEmulated will tell you if your storage is on data partition and isExternalStorageRemovable will tell you if your storage is SD card. Most of the time they will return opposite output but I guess you can find a rare device that its external storage is a separated partition so both of them will return false.
I have been searching over the StackOverflow how to get specific paths, but I only found solutions about External Storages (SD cards). I need to create and read data from internal storage (in-built memory), but I can't reach the proper path.
I want to create folder programatically in this folder shown in a picture
so the user of my app can put there .csv files used to import their contents to database, and get .csv file exported from database.
I have tried my own attempts but they did not work.
So my question is: How can I take a path of the folder shown in a picture for creating my desired folder and files there?
Thanks in advance.

External storage is not removable storage on most Android devices.

That is showing external storage, as is viewed from a Windows desktop or notebook by means of a USB cable or other MTP-based connection.
There are a variety of ways of working with external storage.
I have an app I made on my old phone. It creates a folder called LocationTracker. When Im stepping through the code it says the folder exists. But I cant seem to browse to it when I connect my phone to the computer. I just checked my file explorer on my phone and i can browse to the folder there as well. According to that it is under the sd card, but i just cant see it on my PC.
Im rooting around in my file explorer on my phone. There appears to be 2 sd card folders. One is called sdcard1, and that seems to be my actual sd card. The other is called sd card. I think its an emulated one. I use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), i thought that returned the sd card if one was available. If that is the case why is it using the emulated folder instead of the actual sd card folder? How do I fix this?
From Android documentation:
In devices with multiple "external" storage directories, this directory represents the "primary" external storage that the user will interact with. Access to secondary storage is available through
The rest of the sentence is sadly missing. However the methods are Context.getExternalFilesDirs() and Context.getExternalMediaDirs().

In Eclipse in Window| AVD Manager create AVD with an SD card.

I am working on email application. My application will create some files in the Sd card.
I am using
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
to store the files in SD card. But I have observed that some times when my device connected to my computer I am unable to access my files.
Please suggest what's the path I need to use so that my files must always accessible.
I want to store my files only in Sd card.
I think when the SD card is mounted you cannot access it.
