I assume he doesn't have it so he's asking if anyone got it to working.
If you don't have it or your answer's not gonna help, let's not answer it.

From my understanding the inc2 and majority of today's "smartphones" can only access up to 32gb of external memory. I have yet to see a 64gb card installed in any phone.
I could be absolutely wrong in my assumption.

Did a quick research and found out that anything above 32gb would be classified as a SDXC card which would not be read by current smartphones.

plenty of music (32gb alone), movies, videos etc.... I have Google Music, but I would also like the option of not having to stream online to listen to my music.

Just installed the 64GB microSDXC card from SanDisk and it works just fine. Formatted the card in the phone and copied all my stuff (music, pictures, etc.) over. Only problem I've run into was Astro FC, but a quick reinstall fixed that. Sure is nice to have a room for more ROM backups now.

Is it reading your full amount of memory also can screenshot the memory usage screen I would love to see it say 64

Can't say I've noticed any change in performance vs the 32GB microSDHC I had before. Cost $160 through Amazon.
The ROM is CoreDroid - quite nice.

500 mb free but space unavailable?

I've 500 mb odd free but I am getting insufficient storage while installing apps!! Anyone else seen this issue ?
I'm on bigxie rom 1.0.2 with Franco kernel 15.2 ...though I don't think it has anything to do with them..

What the hell is that miscellaneuous thing taking up 4.11gb?
That's why you have no space.

i would expect it disabled for a mobile phone, but ext4 allows reserving space for root. On desktop systems that setting is often at 5% of availible storage. As you got root i'd try to grab enough of the start of the raw partition where /data is saved on (or all if you have the space and time) to a linux system and run dumpe2fs on the raw file to see if that's enabled. In case you can change it with tune2fs, but you'd likely need that crossbuild for android.
It this is really the cause something you used to format/wipe /data is seriously bugged though.

Or is it that my app space is somehow limited to 2gigs even though that shouldn't be happening with nexus? I see I'm touching that already

Not entirely sure about why its protecting you from downloading more.
But to clean up that misc folder, why don't you delete those ROM .zip's? You surely don't need them after you've flashed, why are you holding onto them? That's 356mb right there. Also look into your Clockworkmod folder for downloads that you've drone via ROM manager and don't need anymore.

that's not a reply is it. I can clean up and delete files I dont use but that's besides the point
Why is 500mb showing free if I can't install anything?

Like I said, I don't know why its preventing you from downloading more, but while you try to figure it out, you can delete unused files and download apps again...

The first thing I would do is deleting the market app's cache and data in settings > apps > all. Then boot into recovery and wipe the /cache partitition. More often than not that resolves false "out of disk space" messages.

I did the market data delete and a full cache wipe through recovery
That doesn't work ... I've also started getting storage getting low messages in notification bar
I don't understand what the heck is 500 mb available showing for, if it is unusable?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App

As seen in another thread you need to run Lucky Patcher. That fixes it.

I have this exact same issue floating around 500 meg free. Is it a set limit for other processes to be able to save stuff, eg camera pictures etc...?? Obviously if you ran it down to like 1 meg where would it save a photo?!
Coincidentally I'm on apex too.....

Noob Storage Problem

Hey guys been lurking for a while now finally joined. I rooted my phone close to a year ago now I'm running the AOSP JB ROM but I cant figured out how to set my photos to go to my SD card because I'm running low on internal storage. Sorry mods if this in the wrong section and I hope I don't get flamed lol. TIA

Okay I got home and checked and neither of the apps I told you allow you to do what I was saying. But I know I've seen it somewhere and I remember people talking about it. If you're truly interested in changing your default storage device to your ext sd I suggest you search xda. A much easier method to do what you're trying to do would be to find a camera app that will allow you to change the file destination. Good luck! I'm headed to bed, and sorry again for leading you in the wrong direction numerous times!

Huge Thumbnails Folder

Don't know what happened but yesterday I started getting the "Storage space is running out" error. Surprised because I just not long ago formatted my internal memory and started over. Anyways I check and my .thumbnails folder is almost 5 GB! Anybody have any ideas how it could've gotten that big so soon or even why it would be.

If you download lots of apps?? I would just try and go through to delete unnecessary ones. A lot of apps download pictures into your thumbnail folder. Advertising stuff. Try getting an ad blocker app its helping me with that issue.

Thanks. I just deleted everything in folder and rebooted. Not sure where it all came from. I've never been a person with a whole lot of apps. No more than 20-25 max depending on what ROM I'm running.

Think it depends on if you keep the same files on your phone.

Yep! Just checked and it was almost 3GB again. I just deleted it but this time I checked to see what was in there and it looked like it took a small video of every movie/video file that I have stored on my phone & SD card. I guess it is for the Video player previews. Anyway to stop it from doing this and am I the only one having this problem?

It's supposed to do that.

I just delete the whole thumbnails folder. Dont seem to bother the phone or me.

Do you use Astro File Manager? Had the same problem, went away when I switched to Solid Explorer.

Ok guys, it has nothing to do with any of this...
Its all related to Google.
Do this, go to settings, accounts, gmail.
Uncheck the sync Picasa albums.
Backout.
Then go to applications, all.
Scroll down to gallery an clear the cache.
With anyone using hangouts an sending pics, it caches every single one on your phone.

Of course that only works if you use (and sync) Picasa and hangouts. So ymmv
My thumbnail issue was definitely file manager related, switching to a filemanager that allowed me to manage its thumbnail cache fixed it.

Just delete the whole thing you wont loose nothing important. Save you time and space. Try "Root cleaner" I had 3.56gb of space. Bought the pro version and did a quick clean. Now I have 5Gb of space! What the app does it deletes all unnecessary files.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

Well I'm still having trouble figuring out why it does this. I don't use Astro File Explorer, Picassa or Hangouts. I can't see this as a normal process because if left unchecked you would never have any internal storage or at least half or more would be swallowed up by these useless video clips.

How Many Apps Do You Install On Your Phone?

Plain and Simple. How Many apps do you have installed on your Phone, Not Including System Apps
Also If you Don't Mind Listing them.

One hundred something. I don't know the exact number off the top of my head. That's what I love about the S4...so much memory that you don't have to worry about running out of space unless you install a lot of games (which I don't). Apps2SD solves that problem, too.

got about 120 apps. but i try to have an app for just about any reason. the pics are off of my s2 cuz i'm still in trial-n-error mode on the s4 (got about 8 different roms i'm taking out for test drives). truth is, most of the apps are rarely used, but i just feel better having them there just in case. btw, i'm taking suggestions from anyone as to their recommended dd rom, please include ur setup as far as kernel, fixes, etc. i have had my s4 for about 18 days now and i'm still in research phase....so much reading and choices.

I guess i keep some just to see if theres updates which will make them useful; such as google keep which is begging to be integrated with google now.
But i just found an app to help with that task
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cypressworks.changelogviewer
It lets you add apps to observe for updates without having to install them. Currently i only use it to get an overview of changes to my all my installed apps since the play store sucks for that. This app shows changelogs all on one screen. It's really well made

My name is scoob and I'm a recovering appaholic... I used to download just about any app for any task i could find. I had apps on my phone that i never once used. It was like hardcore app hoarding...I used to have like 140-170 apps total, but I have since cut waaaay back. Backups used to take forever. I'm proud to say, I now only have a total of about 56

This gave me a good laugh because it hit so close to home! I had to purge my collection of useless apps I had a while back as well...

I have around 120 but lately I've been doing some app pruning and getting rid of ones that I haven't opened lately.

I probably have around 50 or so.

You guys got a lot of apps! I user to have about 40 apps, but I realized that I didnt use most of them. So now I have about 20 apps, if I urgently need an app I download them at the time.
Sometimes I keep looking for some games that I might like, but rarely find some lol

I have 302 installed, with a few gigs of free space.
I have 1562 user apps backed up with Titanium Backup though. I restore apps as I need them, so depends on how long since i've flashed a new rom.
What's the point of having a phone with a ton of free space? It's just wasted potential to me.

Usually around 50-60.
