So I was able to format the 64GB SD card as internal storage and it now appears under the Storage menu. However, whenever I connect my phone to the PC to transfer some files to it, I can only see the main memory and not the extra space. So what is the benefit of doing the above if I am not able to use this additional space for files management and media storage?
Anyway I can solve that?
You may have not installed the correct/latest driver. I actually just tried this for the first time and it's the opposite. I could see my 64 GB microSD card, but not the internal storage (and yes, I did format it as internal).
the same for me, i can format like sd card , when I formated like internal storage , display me a warning (slow card) if I wish to continue, I said yes and then tell me damage SD Card .... any help please!!! sorry about my english....
my card is a SanDisk 32gb microSDHC UHS-I Class 10
I have 65 gig formatted as internal on my PC it shows as 80 gig well 74 gig really I also tried 64 gig SD card bought from eBay and told me card corrupt and ended up buying one from reputable company locally and works flawlessly

I had the same issue when I was rooted with S-ON. I have now gone back to stock and all seems to be working fine. Think it's got something to do with security/encryption maybe, I could be wrong but just a thought.

ok... I have root and s-on.... then thats the problem.... thanks....
btw if anyone advanced user have the solution... please.... thanks...
Maybe it's normal
I think it's normal. My unrooted A9 has an SD card formatted as internal storage too. When it's connected to a PC, only "Internal Storage" will be shown because it's merged by the device's internal storage and the SD card together.
You can see the space of "Internal Storage". It should be around 16G/32G (internal) + 64G (SD card).
Hope the above helps.

After trying it a several times and restarting the phone, all I can get now is the internal storage of the memory card. The additional 16 GB of the phone's original memory don't even show
Same **** for me. But my internal shows up as 10 GB?

has anyone had this prob with there sd card, my card was 2gb but now its only shows 980mb its happened since iv used the new build wm6 any ideas
format yourcard: /FS:FAT /V:Sd Card /A:64k /X
yeah, just format your card. It's not the ROM.

thanks guys.. back to norm now
OK, now another similar one.
My 4GB card has gotten spoiled. Now, only 2GB is available after re-format in Card Reader. I tried re-formatting, but it never gave me back 4GB.
I do understand there could be special way to do it, as 4GB is >= 2GB which is about biggest positive 32-bit binary number...
Any insights?
I had that problem.. it's a problem with the card reader. Some card readers can't identify cards beyond 2Gb. Here's what I did, I plugged the card on my Universal... used USB HDD/WM5 Storage then formatted it on Windows. Try it.
That happened to my 4GB card awhile back. I fixed it by deleting the partition and doing a full reformat using... i think it was a toshiba utility.
I can't remeber any more details then that though
Hi
I recently got a Kingston 8GB class 4 microSD card and installed it onto my captivate , when i connect to windows i can see both my 16GB internal Storage and my 8 GB microSD card , but none of the file managers seem to show the microSD card .
i tried several apps like SDcard speed tester , QSysteminfo etc they all just show the info about the internal Memory and dont really show any info about the microSD card
in the defualt camera option settings theres an option to select stoage and when i select memory card instead of phone and when i connect to windows i can see the photo being stored in my microSD card
also in the filemanager i see a path called SDCard\SD this seems like a soft like to my microSD card
my question is how do i make all these apps to recognize my microSD and say run a speed test on it.
any help appreciated.
Thanks

Not exactly what you are trying to say in this quote here, but sdcard/sd IS your external sd card.

Yes
/Sdcard is the internal storage (sometimes call internal SDcard or phone storage)
/SDcard/SD is your external SD card ( MicroSD)

[Q] New G-Tablet internal memory only shows 1.74GB "free", how can I fix? Thanks!
Today I just got my G-Tablet replacement, and noticed that when I go to storage it shows internal memory Total Space as 1.82GB and Available space as 1.74... What's wrong? How can I fix? I hope I don't have to return this...
EDIT:: Also, I took out my SD card, and for fun clicked on "Mount SD Card" and it actually shows supposedly that I have an SD card installed when I actually don't?
It seems the G-Tablet reports the internal memory as an SD card? In file manager I see "sdcard" and "sdcard2" how can I get it to read my SD then? I'm confused, no idea what to do
Furthermore, in the computer the G-Tablet's seemingly internal storage is identified as "NVIDIA Harmony" any help would be appreciated... Thanks!!!
What's going on? Thank you!

There's 2 memory's. 1 for apps and the rest for the internal card. The one you are referencing is for the apps (like 1.7 total, xx free). You have a 16GB internal card. sdcard 2 is for the microsd card you insert--no need to mount. just put it in and file explorer should see it sdcard2
and what the maximum amount of the SD card can be used as system memory? I have a card to 64GB, and when you try to make it a system unit for a long time it formats, but it is empty and then says that the card is damaged, but if you use it like a regular card, it works fine and displays. Do not tell me what could be the problem?

My coworker had that issue with his 64gb card. But my 32 and 128 worked fine. Try formatting the sd card as fat32 maybe, then attempting to have it "adopt"?

it is not clear yet because using a USB flash drive to 32GB everything works fine, and the phone does its system memory.
I have a One A9 running stock Android 7 original ROM. I am getting the low storage warning as I have used 15.5 out of 16gb.
I have installed a 32gb SD card and planned on formatting this as internal. I tried this but then noticed I cannot see the SD card when pluged into my laptop. It was only showing the internal with capacity of 16GB, not the 16+32gb as I had hoped.
I then formatted it back to portable and planned to move certain apps to SD. But in App settings, not a single app can be moved to the SD.
So I am stuck now. Anyone know how I can view the additional storage on my laptop if I format the SD as internal??
Or if that is not possible, how do I move apps to SD?
Anyone able to assist?

afaik, you can only move apps to the sd card when its formatted as internal storage, not portable.. Pre-installed apps can't be moved to the sd card.

Did you moved/migrated your files to the sd card after formatted as internal?

This is what I tried doing. When I connected the phone to my laptop via USB, windows explorer could not see the SD card. All it showed was the original internal memory.

maybe because you didn't migrated your existing data from your internal memory to the sd card ? When using the sd card as the internal memory you'll only see the sd card from your computer (I'm assuming the opposite is also true), read the help page linked above.
