Android Tutorials - 15 - Browse SD Card with Astro File Manager

Great application for seeing what's really going on in that memory card of yours. Also lets you create homescreen shortcuts to files for quick and easy access. Also great for dealing with .zip files as well as finding out what's really sucking up your SD card's space!

How do i download from andriod market rightly in to my SD card instead of the Mobile it self? :S

[humancar2n]

@JONTEK3 unfortunately not all apps support installation to the SD card thus, unless it is a really huge app, it will always download to your phone memory first.

how do i move music to my sd card

[humancar2n]

@1ninjawun1 from your PC you can connect your phone to your PC as a disk drive then drag the .mp3 files into the Music folder on your SD card. Or you can use File Expert if you don't wanna mess with wires, see my video on File Expert for that. If the files are already on your phone memory or just in a different folder on your memory card, simply find the file in Astro, then long press on it. Select Move, then go to the Music folder (or any other folder) on your SD card and select edit>paste
