Where are my photos stored?

A

AC Question

I want to try and upload my photos to my computer, but I cannot find where they are stored. They aren't stored on my SD Card (although I would prefer it to so). A folder has automatically been created called "DCIM" > "Camera" but none of my photos store there. I tried using the ES File Explorer to search for them, but I cannot seem to get anywhere. They are obviously on my internal memory somewhere otherwise it wouldn't let me preview them. So, where could they be and how can set default save location to my SD Card?

There is a DCIM folder in Device storage and one in card storage, if you are connecting via usb without Kies your pc should see 2 drives. Try DCIM in Device storage.
You can set the camera settings to save to sd card.

That is the problem. When I enable mass USB storage to my computer, only my SD Card is displayed and not my internal memory. I am also unable to find another DCIM folder in my internal memory (device storage).

If I cable my Samsung Note 3 to my W7 pc without 'enabling mass storage' on the phone screen, it will eventually see 2 drives.
What phone do you have and someone may know?

I have a phone that works similar to the HTC, but it isn't a common brand of any sort - it is most likely just the phone. The phone is a BML One Mini.

Hmm. Don't know then.
You tried hooking your phone with the sd card out and see if it will read the device then?

There is probably another app that can find it.
More help needed - - - - -

I have done so much Googling and I don't have a satisfying answer. Thanks for the help on this though.
Would it be wise to re-post this in another section?
