olaka Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hi! I've setup a sync between one of my android phones and my NAS which seems to work fairly well. The major issue I'm confronted with is that I've set my phone to store new pictures on an SD card and it seems that Resilio Sync is referenced to the DCIM folder on the phone storage rather than the SD card. Long story short the wrong folder is being synced. Am I missing something? The phone I'm using is an Honor 8 on Android 6.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Add backup -> Custom folder -> SD card -> DCIM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olaka Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Thanks. Just to be clear. It has to be done manually and cannot be done using the Camera Backup option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 right. By default camera backup looks at DCIM on internal phone's storage, it being the default photos location in Android. If you change camera settings and set it to store photos on SD card, manually pick that (or any other) location in Sync. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boruguru Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Do we need to special settings, when you do this. Point is that, I don't want to delete anything that I delete on phone, on the sync'd folder. (Is that the default behavior on a phone?)
