I'm trying to transfer a movie that's about 8gb to my sd card. It gets about half way there then tells me it cannot transfer the file. I'm running AOKP.

If the card is formatted fat32 then there is a 4 GB limit on file size.

Anyone know how to get to the SD card? I put a known working 32 GB card in and it will not show up. It is formatted NTFS, could that be the problem?

Yes, the NTFS formatting is your problem. Format should be FAT32.
Fat32 should be the formatted state... I really hope you don't think you can install apps on it ....I learned that the hard way... ICS won't let us install apps to our external memory card smh

I have an app (maybe it's a widget?) running on my phone, circular battery indicator. I put the .apk on my MicroSD card and installed it from there. Works well! Gotta have the .apk though.

They apk can install from.the sd card but if u look in the app manager... It installs to the internal or phone storage not the ext sd card

Hi. I am having a annoying problem with my external sd card. It's a 32 GB sd card. When I put movies on it, or transfer movies to it, they won't work or no longer work. But if I put the movie right on my phone they work. I have tried formatting the card but it is still not working. I just have no idea why it is doing this.

1-wrong forum
but...
2-which file system on your SDcard: FAT32 or exFAT?
3-size of the file you want to move on your SDcard?
Sorry. I'm not sure what you mean by number 2. The movies are about 700Mb.

for some 700Mb files, FAT32 or exFAT do not matter so forgot that question...
Maybe a rom issue if you are not on stock rom...
Only with video files or also with other file like mp3?
Oh. Ya, I'm on stock unrooted. It will only do this with videos.

Alright, so when I try to take pictures or screenshots, it says it's unable to do so because I'm out of storage or something? I have 1.5gigs of internal left, and 28gigs of external.
Any help/suggestions? Never had this before.
I am running Beans 6, by the way
Edit - figured it out
You had it set to ext sd card in the camera right? Once you change it to internal memory in the camera app it should work and then store it on the ext sd card right?

I'm having problems with a few sd cards on the stock verizon. My phone has been rebooting on it's own and the only thing that's fixed it so far was swapping the sd card out the first time and formatting it the second time.

I tried that, but even then it still wouldn't work. Downloading from browsers and all, didn't work either.

Hey guys I have about a gig of free space on my internal storage and close to 10 gigs on my SD and my phone keeps telling me to free up space when I try open the gallery. Any ideas?

If you're rooted and dirty-flashed a rom, you can get the same error. I had the same issue awhile back with a particular rom I flashed/upgraded. Hope that helps.

could be not enough room in the system partition due to the way some apps work?
just guessing but the space it needs might not be in the partitions you are looking at?
how can I view the internal storage on my phone? it says I have 9 gigs full but I don't know how to view it in astro

I don't know why, but there's something on my phone that took up 4 gb of the internal memory and I can't figure out what it is. But besides that, I downloaded Modern Combat on my phone (2 gb game) and was curious if there's a way to move it to the external SD card? Along with anything else to free up space on the internal memory? I know Apps2SD doesn't support this phone so I was wondering if there was some other way?

Folder Mount.
Your used space that you're wondering about is likely consumed by backups.

But I made sure that the backups made by TiBu were saved to my external memory.

And I can't figure out where to find the game in folder mount to move it lol. I know I sound like a noob.

Have you made any nandroid backups?

Go to settings-storage-then click on the items in the list to tell you where the data is being used.
App data is under data/data or data/media/0/Android/data or data/media/0/Android/obb. I strongly suggest you don't just cut and paste. It won't work at all.

Thanks for the app info. I will be adding that to my Rooted ME7 GS4. I want my games but don't want to waste space.
