Galaxy S6 :: Connect To PC As USB Storage?
Apr 24, 2015
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 am facing a problem in Nokia X6 8GB. When I connect my phone to PC, usually there comes a list of 4 options(Ovi suite, Mass Storage, Image Transfer, Media Transfer). And i could connect phone to PC in all modes. But now, when I connect my phone to PC in mass storage mode, it automatically switches to ovi suite! I can't connect it in mass storage mode . But I can access mass storage when I connect my phone in Ovi suite mode. And I can copy files to and from mass storage. But I can't connect in mass storage mode. What might be the reason. Pls say ur valuable opinions and answers...(I have already did formating many times(both mass storage and phone). But still the problem exists)

My settings are correct to allow for mass storage sharing. I have tried battery pulls and reboots and different settings and the device does not prompt to share not auto share. I am not able to view the device in "Finder" or "My computer" as an external device.It recognizes and connects to Desktop manager both on a PC and Mac (however, the prompt comes from the desktop and not the device.It used to work please tell me what i should be doing to correct this.

My computer does not connect/find my Torch. Looking at FAQ the enabling of Mass Storage Mode is noted. Going to Options/Device/Storage I find that Media Card Support is enabled but nothing happens. Disable and enable

So I am very familiar with how to clear up storage, but this is clearly a bug. Storage screen I see that the MISC is the problem:
But once inside, there is nothing close adding up to 34 plus gigs...
VZW said that I would need to factory reset.... Also I have already cleared cache, reset, etc.

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.

I've been googling around and haven't found an answer on how the fingerprint data is stored on the phones and is it safe regardless of device encryption?
The S5 implementation of the data was horrible and Samsung is not to concerned it seems. At least Apple clearly outlines how and where the data is stored.

I got a brand new Galaxy S6 the other day. I like to download torrents for a few shows I can't get in my area ( I know that is frowned upon but oh well). I use Utorrent, and for some reason I am limited to exactly 547 MB of storage. After only half a gig of downloading, I get alerts that I am running out of space, and sure enough when I checked the storage all 32 gigs are taken up. Also it is 99 percent "misc" files with the 500MB of video taking up only a very tiny percentage. When I delete the one torrent I get all 32 gigs back How can one little torrent bring with it 20 or so gigs of misc files?? Never had this problem with my S5.

I've gotten this message a few times. The only choices are "pay for more storage" or "remind me later"

My phone comes with 16gb on board, I have had it for 14 months. I checked it and my apps are only using about 1.0gb, with data downloads, pictures and so on the phone say it's only using about 4gb but the rest of it says other 11.5gb. I cleaned the internet history, catch files, all calls in the log, and so on. I can't find what is burning up all my storage space. Is there some hidden stuff somewhere I have to clear or something. I had this problems like last month and deleted like 4 apps so I gained about 1gb, but the phone filled it up with something.

I've recently moved from Samsung S3 to S5 on Verizon. Used to have plenty of storage space to add movies that I could watch while on airplane. However, with the S5 I only have about 1GB free at the moment. Is there any way to add extra storage capacity to this device? If so, how much storage can I add?

I simply cannot find where to change the camera storage location.From the guides I've seen online, it should be under the camera setting options, but I simply DO NOT see a storage option.I'm on lollipop and my phone is the sprint model.

For the last month or two, my phone storage has been "running low". I bought a 16GB SD card to get by on my vacation for pictures and all that, worked out. Moved a BUNCH of stuff over to the SD card, still says it's running low. I decided to buy a 64GB SD card and put it in, but the phone still says the storage is running low WITH the SD card mounted.
How am I supposed to get rid of the notification that the storage is low and actually be able to download apps and take pictures?

I'm using Galaxy S6 edge (SM-G25F) and I'm trying to move an app to system but it says system storage is full. I have been searching for a while but couldn't find any solution, every search result take to "how to free up internal storage" but what i need is to free up system storage. My device is rooted and my storages reads as:
Root: 1.57MB free of 3.53GB
Internal storage: 2.8GB free of 25.31GB
So the one I need to free up is root as i need to move an app to system and its not possible if its full.
P.S: i didnt install any apps in system or I would have deleted or moved them to internal storage. I dont even know what taking up all this space.

Everytime I try to check my storage in my settings it causes my settings to stop working. Touchwiz also stops working. This is my second s6 and things are not looking good.

I know some people are not aware that they can clear out cached data (for All Apps). Is it good to clear it out daily? I do realize that you may need to download the same data again say if you are using apps like Facebook and Zedge and many others.

My father has an S5, on Verizon, running 5.0 I believe, bootloader is locked and it has not been rooted.Her problem is that she can't move her pictures from device storage to her as card. I rebooted the phone, restarted it, pulled the battery and tried an SD card that I knew was good, and also an external USB drive, nothing worked.

So...today I did the software update that came up on my Galaxy S5. Since it installed I keep getting notifications that my storage space is running out. I checked the storage data and for some reason the Storage Contacts are taking up almost 5GB! I only have about 50 contacts, so why so much space is being taken up. I have moved/uninstalled every app I can to free up space, but to no avail...I can't even access my contacts now!

"Unable to move app. Not enough storage space." Galaxy S5 w/ 5.0 on Verizon.I'm sure there are 1000 threads on this somewhere but I'm not finding them specific to my phone. I've just done factory reset, formatted the external 32 gig SD card, re-installed just a couple apps and STILL get the same error message. The phone storage has over 9 gigs available and the external card is empty.
