APPS are filling your Prime???? You can move all sorts of other space hogging stuff over to removeable sd to make room, I seriously doubt there will be any kind of apps2sd for a 32g Prime - a custom romper might have it, but or a rooted app might do it. Keep in mind that a lot of the big apps (games) run best off internal so moving them might not be a good idea.
My 32gb is quickly filling up too. I have well over 100 apps but hey are in no way anywhere case to being the culprit.

Anyone else almost out of memory on the internal SD? - Update problem found.

I've got just under 2 GB left of the 11.36GB the phone says is available. I've got about 100 apps and my camera is set to save to the external SD. Anyone else using up their memory rather quickly?

Hmm... do you have some enormous apps installed? I still have well over 7 gigs free, and I'm not even using an external SD. I have quite a few pics, a few dozen apps, and some music.
Not that I can see. Largest is Adobe flash at 12.38mb. There are a couple others around 10mb, and the rest are all 5mb or under. 405MB used by apps.
Edit: I think I found the issue. The CWM folder is 7.9GB.
Dear lord, what's in that folder?
9 nandroid back ups. Which is about 6 more than I remember making.
That would be to many backups......LOL

I make a point of deleting old backups, so I've got one backup per ROM I work with.
I rename them manually using ADB. (The phone is always by the computer on USB when Nandroiding.)

Do you have any trouble saving your pictures to the external sd card? When I do about 50% of them come up corrupt.Could just be the card, going to return it and try again this weekend. 32GB class
10 Kingston.

Entropy, I have no idea how I ended up with so many. I suspect it may have something to do with the time I spent trying to screw around with rom manager.
I haven't had any issues so far except for some lag. I have a 8GB sandisk that is probably a class 2 or 4. I'm looking at getting a 32BG class 10 here soon which will hopefully eliminate the lag I'm getting after taking pictures.
I'm curious...what was the problem? The extra backups eating up that much space?
Yup, each back up was about 3/4 of a GB.

Sirooga,
There is a known problem with some 32gb class 10 cards corrupting data in android phones. The workaround is to format it with a windows pc. Do a full format, not a quick one, and the important part is to set the cluster size to 32kb. After that it put it back in the phone and all should be good.

Where is your source for this information? I'm curious as I just purchased a new 32GB microSD card. Thanks!

First of all, the newer cards supposedly have updated their firmware so it's not an issue anymore. So if you have a newly purchased card from a supplier with fresh stock I doubt this would apply.
But for anyone having corruption issues it may be worth a try.
Here is a link to a related thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146665
And here is the post I was referring to, cut and paste from the Patriot memory support forum:
"We have found that there is an industry wide compatibility problem with the new Android based and Windows 7 phones working with 32GB class 10 micro SD cards. We have seen issues with the Samsung Focus, Motorola Driod/X, HTC Evo 4g. We are currently working on a solution for this compatibility issue. Google and Microsoft have stated that there are known compatibility issues with 32GB class 10 micro SD cards and are working on a solution as well.
We have found a fix that works in many cases, where you format the card in a Windows based PC, with FAT32, allocation size 32kb, and full format. This is not an official fix, but troubleshooting steps that has worked in many cases, we are still working on a permanent solution for this issue.
Thank You for choosing Patriot Memory!"

I'm doing this now, and it's taking a LONG time. I thought the progress bar wasn't moving at all, but it is. It's been going for at least 10 minutes so far.

10gb avaible?

whats up with this i got the 16gb i know u dont get all ur gigs do to the file system **** but this is kinda bad im missing like atleast 4 gigs where has it gone? -.- is eveyone else like this
Your phone reserves some memory for system functions and apps, then there's whats leftover for you (~10gbs)
Put a microSD card in that puppy and you're good to go!
Radioshacks around my area seem to have 16gb/8gb ones for ~$1.00/gb
How do you install or move apps to this 10GB? Doesn't seem to work the same as moving to my SD card. I was able to put music there by using as USB storage, but it would be cool to make it the default app install location. Any ideas of how to do this?

Memory Card issue

I had been using a Samsung evo 32gb in my g3 with no issues. I upgraded to the Samsung evo 128gb and now when I play my music, the music drops out a lot. I don't understand. I had a replacement sent to me and it does the same thing. I bought them from Amazon and have ran two different apps to test them. They come back as genuine Samsung cards. The cards are reading @ 41 mbs. So I'm not sure what the deal is. I only have a couple of days before I have to send the card back so I'm trying to find out if the cards are good or not. Thanks.

What format is the card in? FAT32? ExFAT? Whichever it is, try the other. Even if it came formatted, you can try formatting it from the phone instead. Sometimes it makes a difference.
Also, there's some apps to increase the cache for your Micro SD card. I think some music apps have a cache setting, too.

Sweet. I'll check into the formatting. Can you give some examples of apps you are referring to? Thanks!

I haven't used any in a while so I don't remember specifically the app names.
If you search the Play Store for SD cache I see some but some of the hits are for other things related to cache, so you'll just have to judge by their names.
I think among all the other things it does, I believe ROM Toolbox by JRummy does that, but that app's overkill and might require buying for some features.
Sometimes I wish I could pay it forward with apps I've bought in the past. I've probably stopped using more apps that I've paid for than apps I currently use that require being bought.
You're welcome!

Thanks man. I sure appreciate your help. My old card was fat 32, new one is exfat. I'm backing up my sd card at this moment, so I can change it. Again thank you. Much appreciated.

Interesting to hear if your reformatting makes a difference.
I have a 128gb Lexar 633x Class 10 (black/blue) that my VZW G3 will not recognize(mount) the card in any format or formatted with different softwares. Works fine is cameras and pcs/laptops.
But it will mount the 54gb version of same card.
good luck
Well, going from exfat to fat 32 seems to have helped some. It still has some drop out, but not like before. I'd say it's probably reduced to 1/2 or 1/4 of what I was experiencing.

SD card as internal storage?

Does anybody know if this feature is part of the phone's software? I can't seem to find the option. Kinda useless to have SD card slot if I'm limited to transferring files over.
For instance all my music is backed up via Google music and I save stuff to the phone as I go which eats up a lot of space..
And the worst part is some apps allow you to move to the SD card but it seems like all the important ones don't even have the option.
ANNOYING!

Adoptable storage isn't enabled on mm on any OEM roms including Sony that alone tells me how reliable it'll be. It can be enabled though via adb pretty easily check the Normal xa forum someone has already done it but the storage details are all messed up its just a load of random no's. Also Google it there's plenty of ways to get it working if that's what you want.

Thanks. Its hard to think that it is such a big deal to have this feature, but oh well.. There should at least be a standard 32gb rule on any Android phone at this point considering how much usable space you end up with. I'm at almost 80% with just apps downloaded.

Yep that I do agree on 32gb should be the standard now. I'm not that bad yet still got just over 4gb free. The last update on my xa ending in 73 freed up a extra gb internal memory no idea what they've deleted though.

How do you adopt storage on this?

I can't seem to figure this out?
I'm really disappointed that this came with only 32gb storage. That's why I want to adopt storage. Most of my apps won't properly move to the SD card.
