One month ago i bought on ebay a 32 gb Mirco Sd, i put it in my phone which told me to format it: i did it and than it stopped to be shown in both phone or computer.
Ok, i thought i had bought a fake and i started again to use my old 16 gb Micro SD i've had for one year.
This morning i switched on my phone phone and it told me that it had a problem with the Micro SD and i needed to format it; i did it and since than it happend the same happend with the one i thought was a fake (now i'm not so sure).
It stopped to work anywhere!
Do anybody have any ideas to solve this?
clean the contacts on the card and the phone. Make sure your computer's reader can handle that size of sdcard. the computer usually can, but the reader may have a problem. Verify that it is formatted as FAT.
I cleaned the contacts and now my phone sees the micro sd: it only says "empty sd stick or unsupported filesystem", but in the memory settings i can't mount it and if i try to format it nothing happens.
The pc still doesn't see the sd, i've even tried with 2 different readers

Do u remove sd crd often, if u do then pls go to settings-sdcarf and storage and unmount your sd card or it will get corrupted. Its an amdroid problem. The rest part where it doesnt work anymore is wierd.

I remove it sometimes, but not that often, however i can't do that, because so far it still can't be mounted nor formatted and also it can be seen by the computer

I used to have this issue with my old sdcard. If you can get the computer to read it first try this :https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/. If that doesnt work try some software called partition magic and use it to format the card. This might not work for you but i was having the same issue as you and it did for me.

No probs, and the only way i could get the computer to read the sd card was using a card reader, multiple reboots, removing and re-inserting the sd card until it decided it wanted to be read....as you might imagine it took a while, good luck

So I just recently bought a Boost Mobile Desire 510. After downloading Facebook and Dropbox, and disabling everything I can and uninstalling everything I can I still only have 194mb left over. How can I solve this issue? I already have everything I can on the 16g sd card that I can move over.

Hello,
You can try one of the awesome ROMs that are available for our phone and/or you can check out this thread as it has some very helpful advice.
So I have had my Desire 510 for a few months now and after Rooting, ROMing and even using Aparted and Link2SD I am still out of space on this phone. I have minimal apps on my phone. Facebook, MapMyWalk, FB Messenger, WIFI Anylyzer, and Zedge. All pictures are sent to the Micro SD card and removed weekly. I have removed everything that I think I can and I still have no space. I ccan't even update anything as there is no space. What the hell was HTC thinking with this phone?

Why don't you just go the store and buy a new SD card with 32 to 64 GB space available?!?! If you do this make a backup of your current SD card to restore to the new card... Problem solved!!
I have a 128GB card in the phone already. Its not the SD Card space thats the problem. Its the phone space.

I'm kind of lost. I only have a 64GB card and I can put on as many apps as I want. Are you sure you used Aparted and Link2SD correctly? It is very close to impossible to run out of space if you use those two correctly.
Pretty sure I used them right
I will try again, maybe it didn't set it up right

If you read the other post you made you said you have a 16GB SD card and that's why I said to go buy a bigger one but then you said you have a 128GB SD card?

This post right here is where you said you have a 16GB SD card, I'm assuming you got a bigger one now then? This is why I thought you had a 16GB SD card.
Yeah I have upgraded to a 128GB card. But its giving me a problem. For some reason it will not partition properly.

Have you tried using a desktop/laptop to format the card first?
yep
and I have had the 128GB card in another android device to make sure that it works too..

I recently bought hot 2 and I noticed that it uses external SD card as primary storage, how to set it back to use internal storage?
There is no option in settings!
Idk. It says on mine primary and external storage are the same. Can someone please provide a short post on this? Can link2sd, e.g., be used without root?

Here are screen shots to elaborate what I'm talking about.
The phone uses SD card as default writing storage by its own and I do not have option to select the default storage!

I think that is one of the little faults the phone has. With this November update, some apps cannot work without SD Card

You will have to buy and use external SD card until they push system update to fix it.

Me too, I had the external SD card as default storage. And as I am replying this message, my internal storage is default. I don't know how. But what I do know is I got a fake SD Card and inserted in my phone. After I booted, internal became default storage and everything is working well, without an External SD card.

An SD Card that isn't original. Maybe a 16GB SD Card that shows total storage as 15.3GB instead of 14.6GB

A fake SD would show a movie is 100gb but your SD is 16gb. Or a song is 3gb. Or a word document showing 5gb on a 1gb SD card.
If you play music it cuts.

Hey if you didn't figure it out yet it's simple you need to format the sd and an option will show to choose for external or internal storage you can also find an app to partition some of the sd for rom expand but it kills the sd fast.
I would really like to do this also... I can move some apps to sd not all the ones I want to.. I have rooted and tried different apps to do this. I do not get the option to use some of sd as internal after formatting. 32gb model with 64gb sd

Newer tablets no longer allow this because it is a very bad idea. Internal storage is MANY times faster than the SD cards and allowing apps to run from the SD card would make the device very "laggy".
