Exclamation [Q] Fix JP3 Write Protection?

Me and a fair share of you using JP3 know that the external sd-card is write protected by default.

I know that with root explorer I temporarily can gain write access and move from the internal sd to the external.

The question:
Is there any fix to lift the write protection altogether? I mean it is to blame for a lot of problems.. not being able to move apps to SD and move things to it from your computer.

Please shed some light for me on this.

Having the same problem with the JP2 firmware...


Some applications/games want to download 'data' to external SD-card...this isn't working at all...write protection.

Someone a solution??

Thanks!

i don't think this will be fixed anytime soon by any users on XDA, it's an issue that Samsung needs to sort out and remember JP3 is an alpha FW, i think you should wait for the next branch or till the real deal comes out.

i'm pretty sure all recent JP builds have this error. No point using these builds atm just wait, the only difference with Froyo is flash and a few UI changes anyway :P
