No need for third party apps

My Android 6.0 allows me to browse the intern memory without the need for third party apps. I simply do this*:

"Settings"
"Storage and USB"
"Intern"
[let it load a bit...]
[scroll all the way down]
"Browse"

* Words may not correspond to the standard English version ones, since I'm just freely translating them from Portuguese.

Note: At least in my phone, /storage/emulated/0 does not correspond to SD card, but to intern memory. This method did not work for my external card, but I never tried it with another phone.

Hope this helps!

Plug in your device and run adb shell which will get you a command shell on your device  You don t have permission to read  storage emulated  but since you know it s in subdirectory 0 just go cd  storage emulated 0 and you will be able to look around and interact as aspected   Note  you can use adb wirelessly as well

To RESTORE your pictures from  storage emulated 0  simply open the 100Andro file  there you will see your pictures although you may not have access to them in you pc explorer  There open each picture one by one  go on setting  three dots    and save the picture  It will show up in the android file  Pictures  from where you can also copy them by using your explorer  There is no  save all  function  however so it must be done one by one  but it works   QT

https   productforums google com forum   msg nexus WIcHUNQfRLU ALpViG86AwAJ  Mr Expensive Toys said  Am amazed that this problem is still showing up as it started happening as far back as Honeycomb   So  the  storage emulated 0 DCIM Camera is the same folder as your normal DCIM Camera folder   Its just a symlink    So the files are actually in the right location you just have an app that put bad data into the MediaStore Database       When accessing files from your PC your are actually enumerating the MediaStorage database for files    Its not pulling a traditional directory lists    So what you see is based on what is in that database and the path entries in the database      Files in the database pointing to emulated directories aren t shown as they are assumed to be duplicates as its the same physical directory as your normal DCIM Camera      What is going on is that some poorly written third party apps are inserting entries into the database with the  storage emulated 0 DCIM Camera path instead of the proper root path to DCIM Camera     Which means that the MTP service can t see them when you are hooked up to your PC   Usually the easiest way to fix the problem is to just clear the MediaStore databases to get the bad entries out of the MediaStore Database and let the system reindex the files and put into the database with the proper paths   Settings- apps Hit 3 dot menu in top right and select Show System Find Media Storage  Select it  Select Storage  then Clear Data Find External Storage  Select it   Select Storage  then Clear Data Turn phone off  turn phone back on  wait for indexer service to rebuild the data     When you are done the files should show up with proper directory tree and be visible from the PC    Depending on amount of files on the phone it can take as 10-20 minutes to rebuild the media database as the service walks the phone directories  getting meta data  creating thumbnails  etc

User · Answer

Android recommends that you call Environment getExternalStorageDirectory getPath   instead of hardcoding  sdcard  in path name  This returns the primary shared external storage directory  So  if storage is emulated  this will return  storage emulated 0  If you explore the device storage with a file explorer  the said directory will be  mnt sdcard  confirmed on Xperia Z2 running Android 6
