Yes I agree 100%. You know a simple 5 question or 10 question quiz on at the very least some basic knowledge questions before be allowed to post would do two things.

1. Force these guys to do at least a little research and teach them how to use the search function.

2. Cut down on stupid mindless questions that are clogging up the forums.

Its not like its some deep dark government secret or nothing... but at least some simple basic questions.....

[Off-topic] droidbabyxda:
well, thanks.

i just really need some clarifications. i switched from 8gb micro sd to 32gb one recently. copied everything over and stuck my new card in. i use app2sd pro to transfer file out of my phone into the sd. I noticed that the app still says my sd is only 8gb (7.xx of which is used). i emailed the developer and he replied that samsung only registers 12gb of memory and it wasn't the apps fault. he sent me to read FAQ from his site but I can't understand parts of it. Could somebody please explain to me what this means? Also, does this mean the apps2sd app does not move my apps files to the sd, if so where does it go?

been googling it but so far i'm just so confused about this. thanks. i didn't want to bother people here in the off topic thread and more so didn't want to get in trouble with the mods. if i have to post this somewhere else please let me know.

ty!

> this was the devs reply <

The SD card is configured as a secondary external storage by Samsung. Currently, Android only support the first external storage which total space is around 12G

Please read FAQ 8 from http://android.a0soft.com/?url=App2SD.htm for more details.

Format the card on a PC as fat32. I have a 32gb that android sees fine
[Off-topic] hechoen:
64GB here that gets read and used just fine. The dev is blowing smoke. Use MiniTools Partition Wizard(Free) to format the card as fat32 like mindmajick said. Also make sure to set it to primary not logical.
[Off-topic] skrambled:
This is my understanding but someone else may be able to better explain or provide a solution:

When the app shows only 12gb available it is referring to your internal SD card. On many phones what is Internal SD on our skyrocket is USB Storage and SD card is the external. On these devices you can move apps to the external SD using apps2sd.

The remainder of your internal SD (after the 12gb or so of 16gb) is dedicated to system files (rom, system files and apps, data, etc). Apps2sd sees the two partitions of your internal SD card as internal and external SD. (It's like this on the S3 as well)

I looked around and there doesn't appear to be an easy way to move apps to external SD card (if you Google "xda skyrocket move apps to external SD" you'll see what I mean).

That said, I'm sure it's possible by doing some more advanced actions using adb to change the mount points for storage, but that could be risky.

Might just have to leave the external SD for media files and such, which tend to be the largest files anyways.

Changing the partition structure will erase all data on the card. There is no way around that. What file structure is your card formatted in now? Should be either exfat or fat32. If you open minitools with the card plugged in it should read it and tell you. If your card is getting read through the phone just pull all the files to your comp that way then reformat. Then just put them back on after. I've never seen a comp not recognize a card.

Well its my desktop I'm talking about and the card reader was built in when I bought it in 2008. From what I've read that's the only reason I could come up with is that the older card readers can't recognize these newer bigger SD cards. It reads my 4gb micro SD just fine but not the 32gb or the 16gb. The only difference in the cards is the 4gb is formatted in fat16 and the bigger ones are fat32. I have found nothing or no way to format the bigger ones to fat16 nothing gives me that option. I tried changing it to NTFS but and exfat but then my phone would not read it. My only option is I have a USB adapter I can put my micro SD in that I bought and the PC sees it then but data transfer is so slow that way. So I just boot into recovery mount the SD and transfer large files that way cause its a little faster but the only downfall is I can't use my phone while I'm doing it....
