Running out of space - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

When I had the Note 7 with a 256GB MicroSD card inserted, Everything that I downloaded went to that 256GB MicroSD card.
Now wih my S7e, using the same 256GB MicroSD card, I have run out of room on the phones internal storage. I have used 31 of the 32 GB that the phone had.
Question 1, How do I get the files on the internal card moved to the MicroSD card,
and
Question 2, how to I get future downloads and apps to automatically go to the SD card? I prolly missed some setting(s)..... Thanks!
BTW I have over 200GB of free space on the MicroSD card.

Before you make it part of your system partition back up files on your computer cause you'll lose everything on that sd card

Thanks for your reply but How do I go about making the SD card part of the system partition. I do not have root.

No root is required, just go to settings storage and click on sd card . Click this link http://www.xda-developers.com/enable-adoptable-storage-for-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge/

Personally I would root making it part of the system partition is not wise as if something happens to your phone storage your SD will go with it root and use xposed to get Xinternal SD it allows full access to your SD card which everything saves to unless you don't want it to

"Your phone does not have SD card"

"Insert SD card"
I get this error when I try to move apps to sd with apps2sd. Obviously, I have an sd card, which I use regularly.
How to fix? (wendyallisson where are you when I need you!)

Maybe your sd card needs formatting. Have had that problem before on another phone in the past.

Thats because u have Phone memory (1GB i guess) and the inbuilt SD Storage 11.6 gb or so
and u need to PUT in an External SD card so that u can move the apps

Switching internal and sd card storage

So i haven't been able to find anything about this topic and maybe i am just weird but because of how the note 2 sets up the storage it doesn't support apps to sd. Maybe i just use way too may apps but i have already filled the internal storage and have a blank 32gb class 10 sd card just being un used in my phone. I want to know if there is a hack to make the phone read the sd card as internal storage where everything gets stored and then i can use the internal storage for pictures and files cause i don't have many of those.

Root and use directory bind to move directories from internal to external. Will free up a lot of space.

Do you have a micro sd memory card inserted? If yes, remove it and see how things go. If everything ok when micro sd card removed then the problem is in your memory card. Try to format your memory card to FAT32 using a pc.

Better move your items in memory card to a pc then format that memory card to FAT32 with default allocation size and try it again. If the same issue still exists, buy a new one then.

Some say you should format your memory card from your s4. I recommend you try it too after you backup your items from your memory card.

If the problem exists after re formatting your memory card and/or you put a new one, then I guess it might be with sd card slot but that is like 0.1% micro sd card slot problem and 99.9% the problem is because memory card.

[Q] Moving app data to SD

This might sound really dumb but I can't figure out how to move my **** to the SD card. I downloaded couple 3rd party apps to move them but its telling me my device is sharing space with the sd and internal storage which is total bull. I would like to move **** but theres no option too. Any advice and or ways to move this ****? Thanks guys.
Google changed the way Android treats SD cards with Kit Kat...
If you meant moving apps to the SD card, you can do that with several apps with root. Not possible without root.
You can move media to the SD card no problem with most file managers.
It is possible.. You have to make two partition on your SD card... Download mini tool on you PC then put your SD card in it and make to partitions on SD card
Question
With the progress made on this phone in its current state can I move apps to the SD card?
I'm telling you it is possible download MiniTool Partition off the internet onto your computer

[Note] MicroSD - Can use 128GB

I know the official specs only state that the ZF2 only supports a 64GB MicroSD card. I have tested a 128GB without any issues.
Everything loads up fine, no problem. The screenshot is a 128GB card with 69GB still available. It's just loaded up with various things.
(I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I figured I'd let everyone know)
:highfive:
Good to hear I have a 128 arriving tomorrow from B&H w/ my Zenfone 2
Awesome, time to order an 128GB for my phone!

128GB Micro SD Card....Do They Work?
Yes it can
Yes it can, you can see an interview with an asus guy that sayS and shows a zenfone 2 running with 128gb of sd and when they asked him how? He said that they can not officialy anounce it,
Propably because of lisence issues,maybe it was cheaper to get lisense for 64gb or sonething like that but good thing is it supports,
I found the video search for "asus zenfone 2 interview newegg.tv"
I can confirm 128 gig card works. I have it partitioned for around 90 or so gigs of fat 32 and 20 or so gigs of ext 4.

Hi guys.. I use Solid Explorer and it obviously needs Grant access to write to the external SD card. When you try to copy something over from the app (Internal storage) to the SD card, it will prompt you to select the storage in the next window but the ZenFone 2 does not show the External storage on the left side to select. Any ideas? I can post screenshots if it helps understand the issue better. I could do this easily with a 32GB card but not the 128GB or is it because of EXT4? Should I format it to NTFS?

I have the same problem. Really hoping this gets solved in an update.
Me too I cured it by saving data to stock file manager app then it worked on solid explorer after that
Thanks, can you explain how a little bit more please kindly?

I couldn't save anything through solid explorer or open anything so I used file manager to save files and for some reason it fixed solid explorer and it started working I do not know why

By "save files" you mean copying from internal to microSD using the Asus files app or by setting the microSD as a save location from some other app?
Yes

to fix external sd storage. just download SD Fix by jrummy from the market and run once. Used to fix restriction on my rooted KK 4.4 smartbox and now on my new zf2. all apps can have acess now.
Well good to know about it
Every time I turn the phone on, it shows a notification that SD card is detected. Anyone else?

Yep every time
FYI the issue is fixed with the latest FW update pushed today. Now Solid Explorer detects the external microSD. Hooray!!

128 GB Samsung
I started using a SanDisk Extreme 64GB UHS-I/U3 card that I had used in a previous phone, but kept on getting errors where the ZF2 would say that the card was removed -- this would usually happen about 8-10 hours after the phone was restarted. I assume that there is some sort of timing issue that causes the phone to "lose" the card.
When I saw that the ZF2 can use 128gb cards, I tried a Samsung 128GB EVO UHS 1 - Class 10 card and haven't had a single problem.
Both cards are formatted exFAT. ZF2: ZE551ML Z00AD WW_2.17.40.12
I have the Gold USA Model From Amazon 64GB Internal. Wanted to say I got my 128GB from eBay this guy. http://www.ebay.com/itm/201328012617?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Works Great.

Is that 128gb legit?
- judging by the reviewers of the seller it looks like the 128gb only holds 7gb
