I have a 16gb Galaxy s5, the device memory bar at the top of the storage area, shows I have about 1/3 storage available. However, my available space is 349 mb... Misc files: 5.60 gb, cached: 604 kb, downloads: 1.32 mb, audio: 120 kb, pictures/videos: 13.62 mb, Applications: 4.06 gb. I have a 32 gb sd card in, and have put many applications and contacts on the sd card. I have the popup: Storage space running out. Some system functions may not work.
my 32gb Galaxy s6 Edge Plus is running low on space and my Dropbox account that is attached to the phone is also full and therefore is not uploading/ storing my new pictures/videos into the "cloud".Dropbox is offering an upgrade to 1TB of storage for $10/month .... however there is no middle storage plan apparently. It goes from Free to $10/month.what are the best cloud-storage options out there that I can connect my phone to and that enables automatic storage uploads of pictures/videos?
So recently I noticed that my storage was running low. I went to manage some storage space and noticed that my photos and videos were eating up half my space! Around 15 gb of pure pictures and videos. I was trying to make some more space and started deleting some pictures and then I was deleting some music, I took a break and when I looked again there was no more pictures or music on my phone anywhere! Yet when it still says my storage is running low. A lot of those pictures I wanted to keep. I'm trying to plug it into my computer but I cant find the file and still can't find any pictures or videos on it. I'm running out of options and I feel like I might as well reset it, but then again I don't want to lose those pictures or photos. It also surprises me that they were taking up so much storage space.
I have a 16GB iphone but am an avid music lover. I own tons of music. I have iMatch and iCloud. As of right now my phone says I only use about half of the storage space on it in audio. Very litle is used for apps or pictures. I have another half of the storage space in a category called "Other". What is in that category? I would really like to add more music however my storage keeps stating I am almost full and need to manage. I would delete things if I thought it would make more room but it seems to take very little room off when I remove apps and pictures and does not really affect the other category.
I am currently using a HTC Desire with the standard HTC visual theme. For the last couple of days I have had this issue where the message that my phone is running out of storage space has been showing up and not going away.I have checked the amount of storage space I actually have available (10,70mb Internally and 3,66GB on a external SD card.) Well enough space to use. I have tried rectifying this by moving bigger applications and games to the SD card (amount of storage space available I posted earlier is after this) as well as emptying my text message storage and image gallery. Yet it does not go away.
Says I have 10 GB left but I'm getting a notification saying "Not Enough Storage Space for System" and another notification saying "Storage Space Running Out". This is causing super slow boot up, terrible battery life, the back of the phone is hot, email not syncing, laggy everything. I tried a cache wipe and cleaning files using All-in-one toolbox. Phone died and this is what happened when I tried booting up after a charge. Any way before a factory reset?
For about a week now I've had an alert pop up on my phone stating that my "Storage Space Is Running Out". Today is the first chance I've been able to connect my phone to the PC. I'm trying to export my photos from the phone to my PC so I can clear some of the memory ... how I go about this?
The second issue is that with my phone plan, I have a 1GB data limit a month and I have a widget on the home screen telling me how much I've used etc. The other day I got a "Data Usage" alert on my phone, which I have set to 1GB and to warn me when I'm near my limit (I've set to alert me when I have 100MG remaining).
I don't want to turn mobile data off. I have my phone automatically connect to wifi when at home.
I got my gs6 about month from now its running android 5.1.1 and i think its getting overheated i installed cpu-z and i am monitoring the temperature when i think its getting hot i get about 56°C is it concederd too hot or is it normal and when normal i get between 32°C and 40°C ....
I have downloaded a marine GPS and I want to use it with Microsoft Flight Simulator.
The GPS provider has provided me with a link for a program that would enable me to receive the GPS locator information from my PC rather than directly from the satellites. But it is for a Bluetooth connections, which I don't have on my PC. Is it possible to use the USB connection that came with the phone to receive the information from my computer?
I have a problem with update. When I plug phone to PC and run KIES I cant see what software I'm running on my phone. Due to that I cant update to ice cream sandwich on kies. How do I come back to stock kernel or what to do to let kies to update original software ??
I went for a run today and noticed that the stopwatch would randomly turn itself off during my run. It happened twice and at first I thought may have inadvertently did it myself, but then I checked again when I got home and after 3 minutes and change it reset back to 0 on its own. I restart every few days and do a partition wipe at least once a month.
Twice in the past week I got my phone out and it was off and unresponsive. I had to do soft boot with power volume down to get the phone working. This is something that I have not experienced with other android phones. I am on Verizon with stock Galaxy S6 running 5.0.2.
Is this a defective phone or some application causing problems. What steps can I take to troubleshoot the problem?
Having my phone randomly stop working is unacceptable as this is my primary line. I can't afford to miss calls. I need to get this fixed.
I have a Samsung s6 running 5.1.1 however when I'm at the gym with my headphones in the volume turns itself down to mute.
It's not a button being accidently pressed as when I turn it back up whilst still in my hand it turns back down..
I have the sound alive turned off and the volume adjustment setting is off. I've tried a restore. It's getting on my nerves now to be honest as when I'm running on the treadmill I either have to stop or just run with no music on.
I've just had the latest firmware update on my SG2, the new ICS. how I go about rooting my SGS2? I want to use some apps that's only for a rooted SGS2.I don't want to change any firmwares or themes or whatever as I'm happy with ICS, just need to root it.
I have a Galaxy S6 T-Mobile version that I have had for about 2 weeks now. So far I have been pretty happy with it, specially as I came from an iPhone 5s. However I am having an issue that is really annoying.
I have a fitbit charger hr tracker connected to the phone. When I use the activity tracker function of the fitbit app I am unable to unlock the phone at all. The screen stutters and takes a while to fully load when pressing the button and the majority of the time it will fade out, not even giving me the ability to use a fingerprint to unlock or to swipe if the smart unlock is on.
As this point, I am not sure if this is caused by the fitbit app or if it is the GPS that does it. With the exception of the rare time it unlocks for me, I need to restart the phone each time.
I went ahead and cleared both caches, after looking up how to do it. Unfortunately it does not appear to have worked at all. I am seeing the same symptoms. I noticed a further symptom as well. I started playing music during a walk and the bluetoothplayback was periodically interrupted. A stutter of some sort.
I will next be ruling out BT issues using wired, as I have never had issues with this headset before I think it is related.
The other thing I noticed was that I was able to put it into airplane mode and while still stuttering severely, I was able to unlock the phone though with much hesitation. My next step will also to be trying this same task without the GPS on, seeing if that makes a difference.
I'm using the Google Calendar app (not the built in Samsung calendar app). I create all of my Google Calendar events on my laptop. The Google Calendar app on my S5 displays the events just fine.
In the Google Calendar app on my S5, I go to the Settings menu, I select my calendar from the Settings menu, and the "notifications" section says "1 hour before as SMS".
Also, in the phone's settings, I go to "Application manager", select "Calendar", and the "Show notifications" box is checked.
The problem is that I never get notifications for calendar events. (I expect that they would show up in the notification drawer, but I have never seen a Google Calendar notification there.)
I am using Advanced Task Killer which I'm finding really useful. I have an ignore list set and it kills the apps that aren't being used regularly. However, I'm wondering why these apps keep restarting again. The sort of things that keep restarting are Gallery, Messaging, Yahoo! Messenger, Email, Skype, Maps, etc. I'm sure that I'm signed out on all of these apps and have the settings set such that they shouldn't keep restarting/synching. Are there any apps similar to 'msconfig' in Windows where you can tick which things you want to start up and what you don't?
I've only had the phone a couple of days and I downloaded 3g Watchdog to keep an eye on my data usage and noticed that my total has been increasing even though I'm not surfing, emailing or downloading. Is there anything I could switch off so that the data usage only increases when I actually DO something?
I have a desktop cradle that I put my phone on at work. I have the USB cable from it plugged into my PC. This is nice, because it slowly charges all day, and if I want to share files between my phone and PC, they're connected.
At least, that's how it was with my S4.
With the S6, all I see in Windows Explorer is the S6 listed under my C drive. When I click on it, it's blank. Well, at least once or twice, I've seen "Phone" under there and could then drill into the folders of the internal storage. But I don't understand why that only happened once or twice and why I can't get it to happen again.
I was slightly wary about the no sd slot but ended up ordering cos its just too good a phone. But are there any storage cloud options where i canstore stuff when my phone memory gets full? Wont be hard to max it out with the 4k recordings and 16mp pictures.
Well the day after I got my 5.0 update on my s5. I noticed that my gallery was running. (according to the task bar), so I stopped it. I go back on it a few seconds later and it is running again. How do I stop this!!!
I just got my S5 today, upgraded from my three and half year old S2 Skyrocket, However, it seems to have some weird default "unlock effect" where these stupid bubbles of colors appear wherever you touch or swipe on the lockscreen. I've searched around for how to get rid of it, but everything I've found says go to the Lock Screen settings menu and change the "unlock effect." But the lock screen settings menu on my phone doesn't have that option. I tried searching in the settings for "unlock effect" and it comes up with a result, but when I click it, it just takes me to the lock screen settings--which as I said has no option for unlock effects.Did they remove the ability to change/remove the lockscreen effect in 5.0 or am I just completely missing something?
I just updated my new replacement phone to Lollipop on my Samsung Galaxy s5... now i am not able to connect to my JVC car radio via Bluetooth. When I try my phone doesn't even see my radio. My old Galaxy S5 used to play just fine on the radio with the Lollipop update... It does see and pair to other devices,like my Tone Pro headset.
I have an S2, running latest firmware and cannot add my IMAP account to it. I have my gmail, hotmail and exchange accounts setup fine. But when I try to do the IMAP account, I enter the login details, server etc., and when it tries to test the incoming side of things it force quits. I've rebooted etc.
My phone and my husband S5 keeps coming up with message 32 or 50 apps running in background - draining battery. Then you optimize and half hour ago it is back doing the same.
