For the past few days I been having issues taking screen shots and photos because it keeps telling me I have "insufficient storage" but I have more then 3GB of storage available without including the SD card which is mounted as portable drive on android. Before I combined the SD card and internal storage together got the error "insufficient storage" so I thought it was the SD card problem which it seemed like it because every time I unmounted and mounted the SD card the problem went away for a few hours but came back and I have to unmounted and mounted the SD card again. It got annoying so I decided to not combine the storage together therefore making the SD card storage portable, which seemed to resolve the problem but few days later the same problem happened and I don't even know what to do, so please can you help?

Internal storage and SD card combined prevented taking screen shots and photos and also prevented apps from accessing the storage making them crash.
Internal storage prevents taking screen shots and photos however allowing apps to access the storage at this current moment.

My SD card started acting up lately. I do not know what could have caused it but it seems to just be running incredibly slow for read speeds. When I turn on my phone it does say mounting storage card or whatever at the top and it mounts and I can see it in root explorer as well as all of my documents on the card, my beautiful widgets homescreen skin loads without problems and I can take pictures that save to my sd card. However, almost no program that uses the SD card can read from it succesfully. The gallery shows no pictures and simply says loading, even though I have multiple pictures on there and just took some with the camera app. The music program claims I have no music even though I have thousands of songs. My scorecenter app does not remember any of my favorite teams that are stored on the SD card.
I am on CM7 nightly build 23 right now, but this problem began a few days ago when I was on MIUI 3.05. I have a 16gb class 2 card that was working fine a few weeks ago, and I flashed CM7 thinking it might be my MIUI rom but the problem persists. I can still boot into recovery, see my SD card and load custom roms from it.
I attempted formatting the SD card through android (clear storage in storage settings) but the problem persists.
Is my SD card dying?
edit: write speeds are terribly slow as well. a 200mb file transferring right now looks like it will take about 30 minutes to complete. That's definitely not usual. Do you think this would be my sd card, or my phone? I'll have to try the card out in another phone or sd card reader. in the meantime any suggestions would still be appreciated
I downloaded Talking Santa for the kids but it won't let me play it. A screen keeps popping up that there is not enough space on my SC card but I have 50 gigs of free space. My knowledge is very limited but I unmounted and mounted again and that didn't do anything. I'm also getting this error when I try to move an app to my SD card using app 2 sd.
The app seems to have extra files it needs to download when you open it. It looks like it is trying to put those files on the internal storage. Try deleting some files off your internal SD not external.
This phone does a stupid thing where the internal memory is split into two partitions: Internal and SD card. Apks go to internal and data to SD card. But SD card is really just another subsection of your internal memory! Nothing actually goes to your external removable SD card when you move apps to the "SD card". This is a problem that I know no solution to. Any help?
Haven't had an issue with apps not going to SD. I have noticed that it does leave the empty folder behind on my internal SD.
Hi everyone, I'm new to these forums so please go easy. I'm not even sure if this is the right place to post about the n7102 because there's no section for this phone.
Basically, my problem is that I've recently run out of space on n7102. I cannot download more apps from the Google Play Store. I have tried using Lucky Patcher to remove bug fixes and also tried deleting dalvik-cache, but I think that fixes an entirely different problem.
My device has the following storage spaces:
Phone storage: 500mb
Internal storage: 2gb
External SD card: 16gb
For some reason, the phone writes to the external sd card where I store my media files. However, the internal storage is not even used at the moment. Right now, some apps are saved to the external sd card so my widgets take a while to load on startup. I think this might be because I wiped reformatted my internal memory card after i reformatted my external sd card through Settings > Apps.
I want to know if it is possible to:
1. repartition the phone storage (500mb) to include the unused 2 gb internal storage (total 2.5gb); or
2. swap these two partitions (phone storage 2 gb, internal storage 2.5gb)
I do not want to make a partition on my external sd card to extend my phone storage to use as data
I've looked on the web and this is what I have found:
- MT6577 2GB data repartition with int2ext: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914184
- Swapping internal and external sd card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716166
- Mounting /data partition onto the internal storage space: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1648411
I've looked at a lot more pages concerning issues similar to this, but a lot of the time they use phone storage/internal storage/external sd storage, etc., interchangably. It can get quite confusing. I understand that android sees its internal storage and external storage space the same.
I've also read about the file "Mt657xRepartition_EN.rar" and wonder if it can be used on the n7102 without any problems.
Anyhow, thanks for reading this. If you can help, please do. I appreciate it. I only recently got this phone and have been tinkering with it the past few days. Before, I had been using an Xperia U that had 2 GB of phone storage vs the n7102's 500mb of phone storage so I have not run into this problem before.
Cheers.
[UPDATE] I am not sure but the two internal storage spaces may not be merged. I might have to try to use link2sd between these two for apps and save the external sd card for personal storage use.
I have looked everywhere for a solution and have had no luck. I emulated the storage by selecting an option in a ROM install but it screwed up my storage. I can't even see my SD card (64gb) and my internal storage shows 11gb (supposed to be 16). I tried reformatting sd card, new recovery and nothing is working! Any help is appreciated.
For one the phone isn't going to have 16gb of storage unless it's an empty shell with absolutely nothing on it 11gb sounds about right for a clean ROM IIRC. I can't help you on the 64gb SDCard I'm assuming it's formatted as exfat? It was complete hit and miss on working for me and eventually my SDCard randomly stopped working (2 months old minimal use) if that's the case maybe try reformatting it as fat32 on your computer.
Hi there, i just got myself a moto z play and am trying to format my sd card as internal storage.
I keep getting the error not enough space, after formatting to internal and trying to move over data, even though the sd card is empty. The card works as i have tested it by moving my pictures and music onto the card and it seems to work fine, then i backed them up and tried to re-format it back to internal storage and it still says not enough free space when i try to click the "move now" option after formatting for internal.....
any ideas would be great. thanks.
BTW its a stock phone only running nova launcher. not rooted.
What about sd card spec, share the technical spec with make and model
