Pretty new here. and searched this for a couple days. My question that I'm tryin to answer is... can I flash back to the day I rooted then swap the 8g sd card with my brand new 16g without copy/ paste from 8g. Or if I do have to copy the 8g card how do I know what I cannot delete from it.

Im getting my phone tomorrow but I was reading that the phone diesnt come with a sd card and that it is partitioned for 2 gb of app storage. Then there is 11 gb available for pics, videos, and music. Is this true? Im used to these going on the sd card

Yes its true. SD slot is empty and your numbers for internals are correct

Yes, you can put what ever you want on it.

I'm sure it won't be long before we have the ability to set our own internal app storage partitions.

I have a 16G memory card and it reads 12G used and 3.3 G remaining. I have about 3G if games from gameloft and barely 1G of pics 3.4G of backup data. When I select to see what apps are on sdcard it had a list of games and everyone of them gives me the option to move to usb storage. I've
Deleted a lot of stuff especially videos and pics and it seems like my memory card its congested. Do I need to format it to get it empty?

I'd hookup to PC and browse through files there, delete things you don't need like old roms and leftover garbage from old apps and see if that helps. Old nandroids take up a lot of space too.

Just google lost.dir and see what pops up. From my understanding in doing that a while back, this is kind of like a recycling bin area. I'm sure someone else on here can explain it in greater detail. I check that folder and delete it every now and again when I see it filling up. The phone will create that folder again on the next reboot.

The only folder on your sd card u need is your Android folder cuz thats wat holds your data...

I put the 32gb version of that in and it works just fine. I would be interested if you get the 64bit version working as I did a quick search before I bought mine and did not see anything saying it worked (or that it didn't).
I've got a 64 and it works. I'm going to be rooting my phone soon so the card and the device will be wiped around that time. -Ara

I currently have a rooted and unlocked s4. I have over 100 pictures in my sd card but my gallery is empty. I've moved the pictures around to other files and folders and still nothing. Any ideas, and thanks in advance.

If it's your external sd then it might be defective and need to format it if it's in the phone then connect to ur computer and move them and then format your internal storage and then move them back in it and it should fix it

Before doing anything too drastic, go to settings, manage apps, all apps, and find media storage.. Clear the data, give it a minute and take a picture.. Check your gallery again and everything should be up.

Got it. What I did was take the micro sd card. I placed it on a dynex micro sd card reader and connected the reader to my Mac. I then opened disk utilities. It found the sd card and ran the verify disk. It came back with errors. I then ran the repair disk, and I ran it again for good measure. I reinstalled my memory card back in my phone and my pictures are back in the gallery.

Also when I first put the card back in my phone it gave me an error. I took it out put it back in and it works flawless.
