Hello, I'm having trouble on my s9, I got a brand new 128gb micro sd card to transfer all my games and photos and what not over, which I've done and its not showing one particular game, Call Of Duty Mobile, I've tried everything and I'm stuck what to do. Could someone possibly help me please?
Thank you
unfortunately samsung doesn't support adoptable storage which is required to move apps to SD card.

Hello everyone!
Isn't the point of having and 8gb sd slot that is expandable to 32 gb is so you can put a whole lot of apps on your phone? I know the storage space is great for media but I've gone through 2 storage cards trying to install apps on them. The first time it was on the 8gb card that came with the phone and after so many apps the phone just stopped being able to access the card. So I paid $30 to upgrade to a 16gb from buy.com and everything was working fine until I got about 530 mb of apps installed on to it and the phone just stopped reading it. I can still read the cards with my SD card reader on my laptop but the phone just cant access it. I'm starting to think its the phone which is now rooted so now my warranty is void. Anyone have any info on this? Please educate the masses!
Thanks!
Just bought a Play which has come with a 8GB SD card. Previously I was using a Huawei 8220 (Tmobile Pulse) with a 16GB card which is pretty full ... so in reality I think I'll be moving to a 32GB card soon!
Initially I thouhgt I'd just put the old SD card in and reinstall apps etc and work from there ... however looks like the supplied 8GB card already as ~3GB of data on it ... is any of this essential and if its not there does it get auto-installed (I managed to start the phone with the S card not properly reseated and it started talking about needing a card with enough space to install the game when I tried to run FIFA10 ... if I use another card will things reinstall?)
When I get a 32GB card can I just copy contents of both current cards onto it? Or will that just confuse everything! And for now, should I stick to the 8GB card which came with the play and is preloaded with play data or sue my existing 16GB card which has lots of app data on it?

The data on the supplied SD Card is just some tones/wallpers, the sony suite for windows and the asset data for the games that come with the phone. If you don't want the wallpapers and sony suite, you can delete contents, game data can be downloaded anytime by launching the game
I made a copy of the 8GB card that came with my PLAY & also made a copy of the 16GB card that I had with my Samsung Fascinate. I combined both & put all of it on a new 32GB.
So in steps to make best of it...
1) Copy 8GB data to PC
2) Copy 16GB data to PC
3) Clean up anything you no longer need on the 16GB backup
3) Copy 16GB data to 32GB SDHC card
4) Copy & overwrite last with 8GB data to 32GB SDHC card
Now you'll have everything that was given for free from Sony Ericsson as well as what you had previously. I recommend keeping the free games at the very least.
Thanks ... that's about what I'd assumed - just wanted to double check before I did anything stupid!
Hey all, I have a question. I got a nice, new sandisk SD card for my GS3 for Christmas. I am use the the Epic where when you put in the SD card all music, photos, backups, downloads, etc go directly to the SD card. How, if possible, can I get it to work this way on the GS3? I haven't been using a SD card up to this point and when looking in my storage it appears as though it made a "fake" SD card location on the phone memory. I want all that gets put in the "fake SD" on my actual SD card. I know I can just copy it over, but will all the apps recognize the move? Also I want future SD items to go directly to the SD card.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

The thing is that on the S3 it also has an internal storage site
Theres a thread in the General section (i think) on how to swap the internal storage with external
I purchased the 16GB version because of the 64GB SD card. When I tried to download (buy) some movies from the Samsung Hub, I found out that licensed material couldn't be stored on the micro SD card. Well dang! I would have purchased the 32GB if I'd known. So during a conversation with Samsung Exe Care, I found out I could encrypt the SD card and store movies, etc on it.
So far, the Settings/Control/Security to encrypt isn't working. I think it's because the unit isn't charged to 80% yet (altho it's plugged in).
The system DID manage to set a lock pattern on the front screen. I was hoping that I didn't need to do that since I don't want to encrypt the tablet, just the SD card. So my first question is...will I be able to encrypt ONLY the SD card?
Question #2...how do I transfer movies to the encrypted SD card? Just a simple drag and drop?
One more question, unrelated...when do you think we'll see an update to KitKat on this tab?
Thanks
Hi,
i have a 16 GB Sandisk MicroSD for my SGS4. This card contains lots of music and photos and some games (like solitare, Riptide, Asphalt etc)
Now, i bought a new 64Gb SanDisk MicroSD for SGS4.
i copied all the folders from the 16Gb card and pasted in my new 64 Gb card. Power off the sgs4 and replaced the card and powered on.
phone was successfully booted up and am able to see everything like pics, music etc. but am not able to see any of the games which i moved to the sd card. it says application not installed.
So, my questions is how can i transfer the games also to my new SD card? appreciate your help

I think it has to do with something with the sd card partition, because most 64 gb micro sd card has that issue, so you're not the only one, i have a similar issue, where my music is affected and most of my files (besides picture) are unreadable,in addition, try using a rom or kernel with exFat compatiability, and then try and use your sd card and see if some files work, it somewhat worked for me. But i'll be honest, what good is a 64 gb card if we can't use it?
