So my buddy bought his son his first phone. It's through Tracphone. ZTE Atrium. it's running Android 6.1 the thought was to buy a cheep phone to see if he takes care of it. Bad mistake. This phone is worthless.
The phone has no internal memory. Son put 3 games on it and it's full. I suggested getting a memory card and moving the apps to the card. Well after formatting the card, the phone won't move the apps to the card. I read online that android can format card as internal storage. nope. Someone said to format card in older android phone. Mine is version 5. That didn't help either. People said that android 6.1 changed how cards are used. I don't know as I have a galaxy s5 rooted with Android 5.
What can we do other than buy a better phone?

Hello
I've ordered my XDA II and i'm just getting ready for it to arrive.
I have a 2gb SD card and a 2gb MiniSD card, what im wondering is, will this card work in the XDA II straight off?
i will be updating to the wm5 aku3.5 rom available, would that make any difference?
also, i read in another post that transfer speed is limited to 1mb/sec?! is this true?
whats peoples experience like with this phone and watching movies?
ta
I regularly use my phone for watching movies, no problem. I would however recommend you download this http://mytreo.net/downloads/details-651.html?The_Core_Pocket_Media_Player .

Greetings, World.
Every now and then a complete idiot writes in and asks a stupid question.
Well I cannot be a complete idiot because I've had my appendix taken out, but I do have a major challenge with this old SPV M2000. I've gotten it shifted to Vodafone UK from Orange. However I've had no success getting it to notice that I've put in a 4Gb card. I assume it doesn't need formatting since it's brand new, and I haven't found how to as yet anyway. Anybody got any clues?

Your phone probably doesn't support the 4GB that use the 'new' SDHC format .
Hi -
I have a Samsung Focus and with 32G microSD card. I haven't needed the extra storage that I thought and would like to give my wife the SD for her Android phone.
Is there a way to do that considering the SD card was used and formatted for the Focus?
Thanks.
Sorry to asking again, but does anyone have a recommendation? Maybe we are just SOL.
Thanks again.
I think there are some phones that can format the cards (some Nokias). There should be some info on this over in the Samsung Focus forum
Hi Guys,
so after 3 days of research, about 54 hours in so far I have managed much but still got much to conquer
I have found out it has 2 os running on it (or i think it does) samsung note and htc dream. however it is a custom build (v p1000_V052
I have emailed the company i got it from asking for more information on the custom build but being a total noob on this im only so far in on my journey.
Its running 4.2.2 the only main issue with the device is the fact i cant flip the storage from external to internal as i only have 500mb to play with.
ive tried using external 2 internal but i read up it doesn't work on samsung devices which leads me to believe that the main os is the note as i cant flip it.
i am having all be it limited success in installing apps then transferring over to sd card using move to sd card app.
its frustrating that i cant find how to flip my storage over. considering it gives me the option of what storage to use!!
any suggestions?
Hey guys, bought a Samsung Galaxy J7 Sky Pro through Straight Talk (sm-s727vl) a while back. Now I'm running low on space as I'm playing some large games on it and still need space for music and such (16GB internal). So today I purchased a Samsung EVO 128GB microSDXC card, however, I can't seem to get my phone to do anything I want it to with the card. I can't find any settings to tell it I want apps to install to the SD card from now on if they can be, can't tell it I want photos and video to go there, can't tell it anything really. Finally managed to find out I can move like one app over to it manually after a lot of digging however it wouldn't let me move anything that made sense like my Steam phone app (which my brother can move his Steam app to SD on his Note 8).
I'm starting to get disparaged and wonder why I even bought this SD card if I can't put anything on it. There's not even an option to make the SD card be used as internal storage.
Using Android 6.0.1 which is what came with it. I really wish I could flash lollipop on to it or something. Any help is appreciated.
