White paper | Xperia™ SP LTE Memory in Android™ phones To use Android phones efficiently, users should be aware of the different types of phone memory. This knowledge is important in order to understand, for example, where music, photos and videos are saved; how many apps can be downloaded from Google Play™; and how photos can be copied to a PC. The below information is also of interest to developers who wants to make their programs able to make the best possible use of the resources in the phone.

Some games also stores content such as games music and level information outside their own designated area; and generally, any application can choose to save their data in locations of their own choosing (outside the protected application settings areas).

White paper | Xperia™ SP LTE 4. SD Card (known as “/ext_card” from a programmer’s point of view, or by other names in other Android products) is the name for the removable SD memory card in all 2013 Sony Mobile products. As described above, this External Card memory is generally more limited in that any application can READ from it, but many applications cannot SAVE to this card. Only a few applications, including back-up applications and file manger applications, has the capability to save to this card.
White paper | Xperia™ SP LTE In reality, “sdcard” is a so-called symbolic link to “/data/media”, but from inside an Android application, “/ sdcard” can still be used (for instance, use “sdcard/DCIM/100Android” to find all camera images). Continuing to use /sdcard to access the content area ensures compatibility across different products and Android releases in this regard.
