Noob here, I have one simple question. I recently purchased a Class 10 Sandisk 32gb microSD card because I was running out of space in my internal SD card (mostly because of pictures/videos). So I formatted and inserted the card into my phone and was expecting more storage space but whenever I try to take pictures or save anything it says it has insufficient space. In "storage" it says the 29.7 GB free and none of it has been used. How do I tell my phone which is running on CM10 stable, to utilize my microSD now that it has no more space?
Thank you very much for you time.

Good Evening once again,
Now that my phone is up and running again thanks to some wonderful people on here I was wondering if some could offer some advice on my memory card.
I was given a 32GB m-sd card for xmas that I REALLY want to use in my phone however having a problem formatting it. Using Gparted it will only let me create one partition. If I put my old 8GB mem card in I can delete all the parts and then recreate the two (one Fat32 and one ext4) So is there a reason why I cant do it on my 32gb card and is it fixable?
Thanks,
Max
If youre a windows user, google and download h2testw.exe to test the SD card. Just to confirm that there are no errors in the entire 32GB of space.
Hello am thinking on getting this phone but dont want to make the same mistake like I did with desire. So out of the 32GB how much is left for apps.
Also can you use your own sd card or is it just 32GB.
Thanks
Post in the Q&A section next time
The phone has 32GB worth of flash inside.
Actual usable internal storage for apps is 2GB.
The "SD card" portion is 25GB.
There isn't a slot for a SD card and the internal flash is eMMC which is soldered to the board. You can't upgrade it. 2+25 is all you get.
2gb for apps as well as the 25gb partition. No SD card slot
Thanks guys
When I installed stuff, I get a toaster that says I have 1.xx MB of storage left...... on a brand new 64GB SD card, lol.
Is that because I formatted the card to Fat32 instead of exFat?
Can I just ignore the toaster?
i've been getting that on my note 2 about the internal storage. there's 4GB free and 12GB on the SD card. it's only when i'm updating market apps.
I've been getting the same message. One thing that I've noticed is that within the Managing Apps section of Settings, the category listing of SD Card has about 12 apps listed but when I go to the app details it asks if I want to move to SD. Pretty strange...especially since I haven't installed any apps to the SD.

If the card is 64GB then you need exFAT to address all 64GB. I ran out of app space on my first unit and it started rebooting. I returned and have way more apps intalled on my new one with no issues. Hope this helps.
I get this message too and I have no SD card installed. I can't find any indication anywhere else in the device that any part of my storage is limited to the insanely small amount that is shown in that pop up after installing an app. By all other accounts I have at least half of the storage capacity left on this tablet.
Hi
I'm not sure I understand the transcend SD card and its capabilities. I've formatted my 64GB SD card to transcend and only the transcend card shows up when I connect with PC. I have 46GB free space, yet often when I try to load an app, I'm getting an "insufficient space" notification. Obviously, there's still a limitation on internal phone space, but I can't see a breakdown in file explorer. I had hoped to free up space by moving my music (13GB) to the SD card, but since there's only the transcend card showing, it's already there.
What am I missing, please and where do I need to go to free up some "internal" space, when I show 46GB free??
Many thanks

Hi.
My wife has already in use the Nokia 5.1 for a while. At that time we have also used a 64GB SD card and formatted it as internal memory. Thus, just under 80GB should be available as one drive.
However, the additional memory of the SD card is obviously not used, because although almost 60 GB continue to be free, the mobile phone complains about missing memory if you want to make photos or install apps.
The attempt to format the SD card as external memory brought no improvement, especially as apps like the camera can not access it then.
What do you have to do so that the storage space of the SD card is attached to the internal memory and is used by the mobile phone?
Thanks in advance.
