Motorola Photon 4G :: Insufficient SD-card Space Message?
Jan 19, 2012
Many of my apps are no longer functioning propery (even email) because the internal storage has filled up. All 8.9 gbs of it. I have an SD Card (32 gb) and it has over 29 gb of available space. I have the media set to save to the sdcard so my pics/movies are there. I have 1.9 gbs of space (out of the 2.9 gb) for apps left so I have plenty of room there. How and what do I move to the SDCARD and how do I make sure this data is saved to the sdcard from now on? When I go to manage the apps I can;t find anything. I can manually move files but what can/should I move and how do I get the apps (etc) to save to the sdcard only?

I frequently get an error saying there is insufficient space when I try to install or update apps. I then have to go to the market and find the app to try again. (It usually works the second time. Only once have I had to do it there times.) I would estimate this happens once every 8 installs/updates. I have 5.9 GB free on the phone, and 8 GB on the SD card. This started happening a few months or weeks ago. Does anybody else have this problem?

When downloading stuff from the NEW market app, i get the error "insufficient space available" after i installed the radio that comes with gingerbread N_01.77.30P
I don't think i had this issue with an older radio. I will revert to the older market until a solution is available

Only recently my telco releases OS5 for BOLD 9000. Initially I downloaded it and tried to install but it says that there is insufficient space, at that point of time i still keep my fav theme ans stuff which free apps space is around 20mb, and the installation still says that I have insufficient space until I totally wipe the whole thing clean to its original factory status BUT it still says insufficient space for update. Do I have to delete the system software of 4.6 before I need to have the "space" required? (I have currently 50mb of free apps space isn't it enough?)
Please help as the previous update from earlier version to version 4.6 was just few clicks away from desktop manager and things are done and for this 4.6 to 5 update takes me 1 whole day, loosing all my setting and data (cleaned EVERYTHING that I can think of and read all the thread in CB still I can't update to OS 5) Its a Real waste of time and pain from head to toe. I have 50mb of free Application storage space and yet it still needs 7mb of space for the update. I'm thinking of sledge hammering my Bold a couple of time through the process of deleting and restarting.

Not a big deal since I moved to another email app, but how are the 2 related?
Does the Samsung app store emails or what?

So I originally tried to update one of my apps that I've been using for awhile when I got the "insufficient space on the device" error message, so then I uninstalled it and tried to download it again and still get the error message.
The app is 20.09MB in size and I currently have 445MB of available space on my Samsung Galaxy S5.
I went through and uninstalled a bunch of apps that I just don't use anymore as well as moved a bunch over to my SD card and yep still getting the message so I don't understand what's going on?
I also tried downloading other apps just to see if it was something within that app or if it's my phone but I get it.

I have a Nokia XpressMusic and I bought a memory card with (allegedly) 1.9 GB of storage, yet the card runs out of space when I use up a small percentage of space. I have formatted the thing, but still no joy.

SD card was getting a little full so I deleted all my music from it. That space is still not free, but the music isn't there either. I've tried accessing the card via Terminal and couldn't find anything there either. I'm down to 262 KB remaining on a 16GB card that has almost no media on it..

Why am I constantly plagued with the "Low on volume space: Internal storage space is getting lo"? Nothing in shared folders. Protected content - all any of those things take me to a black screen w/ nothing there. SD card, yes, that's where I keep 29.17GB of 32GB of almost all music - it's the whole reason I bought this phone in the first place. Why does it pester me, and is there a way to make it stop?

I've been running into problems trying to install apps after a number of my apps have been installed that I had on my Droid X and X2. About 2/3 of the way through installing my apps, they started failing because of being out of space. Well, I found that moving apps to the media area (a la sd card on older phones) worked to get more installed, but after jockeying back and forth between installing and moving and then running out of space and moving newly installed ones so that I can install more new ones, I've hid a road block. I'm not sure what the problem is, as I had all of these on my older phones without problems and if I go to Manage Applications, my Application storage shows 578MB used, 1.4GB free.

My daughter has a BB curve and has a problem sending text messages to one of her friends. She gets a message back saying that there are insufficient digits in the number. However, she has the correct number in her contact list and has also tried to reply to a received text from the friend but gets the same message. I have the same number in my BB Bold 9700 and she is able to send messages successfully from my phone. She has also re-saved the number of her contact but still no luck. This is the only number she has problems with.

New here, but quite experienced with mobile phones. I'm quite dissappointed with the way the Photon supports SD cards, and am considering returning it and going back to my EVO 3D.opefully I am missing something very simple, but have spent 2 hours here and other Android forums, and it appears this is a known issue with no current solution. And appears to be an Android issue, not Moto. Which doesn't fix my issue - may just tell me that I need a phone without an extra tier in its memory hierarchy. I understand that perhaps developers need to adjust to the extra tier in the next year or so, but that doesn't solve my problem.
Very simply, I want the Photon to comply with its advertised fact sheet - I want ONE large storage area:"16GB of onboard storage with the option to expand storage of up to 48GB with an optional SD card"I want to see ONE large logical "/sdcard" SD card, not an 8GB /sdcard, with a 32GB /sdcard-ext that is minimally useful. I understand why 8 is not 16 - no issue there. So, I'd expect (in round numbers, and adjusting for giga vs. gibi) 8 + 30 = 38.My issue is that I travel globally, use Copilot GPS, and 8GB is not enough for all the maps I need, along with other use of the 8GB partition.So -- with no disrepect intended, should I just assume that the quoted statement above is a marketing phrase with no basis in fact (that's my working assumption now) - or (hopefully) am I missing something obvious?

My photon does not read the Micro SD card. This problem has been there for 2 months. I never had a need to use the Micro SD card so i did not bother.
This seemed to happen since the last software update. Before that, it worked fine.The phone simply does not recognize any Micro SD cards. I tried 2 different micro sds and the same thing happened.
The buttons where it says"Mount SD card" are always disabled(shaded). And the phone does not let me erase data from SD card either.I tried the reset from Privacy>Factory Reset. Same thing happened. It reset the phone but it still does not read Micro SD.

I recently accidentally locked the sim card on my motorola photon 4g and was wondering as to how I would find the PUK unlock code for the sim card. I called sprint technical support and they informed me that they do not have access to that information and I had asked someone from motorola and they told me the same thing.

I have all the maintenance releases and it still happens. I've tried changing the APN but no go. This applies to roaming in areas I've always been able to send MMS and basically says it wants a data connection even though I have roaming data set and working.

A random message pops up just started popping up that says "The application AtCommandService (process com.motorola.process.system) has stopped unexpecteldly. Please try again." I have tried the standard turn the phone off and on again but to no success. This message randomly pops up whenever I am using my phone. I'm hesitant to do a factory reset because I do not want to lose all my data.

Is it possible to transfer photo gallery on device to SIM card?? When I purchased the Photon they just slapped my old blackberry Sim card in and unfortunately the settings for the camera were such that 1300 photos later (of my 18 month old) I discovered all the photos taken since I've had the Photon are on the device and not the Sim card... problem is I've been unable to download to them via PC despite downloading the recommended drivers...can't get the computer to recognize the USB no matter what I do. Plan B was to use the Photo Portal...tried that today...via WiFi..28 minutes of downloading and got just ONE photo downloaded... PLEASE Help!! This is driving me crazy as I don't want to lose all the photos and videos of my little one due to a freak accident where the phone drops into the water etc...

I just got the Motorola Photon Q and so far I really like it. It is different navigating than my previous phone, though. I am currently using my old 2 gb sd card and want to get a 16 gb card, but can't figure out how to transfer my music files that I downloaded from Amazon MP3 cloud to my phone. It appears they are stored on internal storage, which I suppose is ok for now, but when I get a new card I want to store them on my larger 16 gb card. I can access them by going to settings,storage, audio, then complete action using files, device storage, and then they are listed as amazonmp3.

Yes, I'm having the new standard MOPHO problems, like no audio on calls, rebooting, etc. I noticed something new, today....I send a text, the answer comes in a different window, with the same name. Answer in the new window, it goes to the old. Back and forth. ARGH! Very aggrivating. Yes, I restarted, left the battery out, etc.

Anyone have a problem with music skipping when playing off the Micro SD card? It's random, which eliminates the possibility of a bad file or corruption during the sync, and seems worse when the 4g function is turned on. Interestingly, the Photon is advertised as having 1GB of RAM, but the most I ever have available is 440MB.

I know that in the camera there is a setting to save your pictures and videos to either the internal memory or the SD card, how can you save other things to the card instead of the phone or is there even a way to do so? like pictures you save from texts, Zedge, and music files etc...

all the recent photos that I have taken apparently do not show up when trying to view them on my PC. I am using a PNY MicroSDHC Class 10 SD Card. I only noticed this just now when trying to transfer some of my recent photo images to my pc - unfortunately, they are only in thumbnail size.I can view the DCIM.thumbnails but they (large 8mp size jpg) are missing in the DCIMCamera folder. > this is examined when plugging into PC (USB Mass Storage)I tried searching the entire photon for the JPG's by date but the full size ones are not there. Only the thumbnails of the recent and old and old large size photos are there.
I took a few shots right now and the same thing is happening. I have set the camera to save on SD card.All my past images/videos and files/documents are still viewable in full size on the SD card via windows explorer. I tried to power down and remove-reinsert SD card but the recent images in full size are not there.I did a search via windows explorer for all JPEGs on the entire drive but it seems all of the recent photos I took are not there, only the thumbnail files.Also, I had purchased this card "as is" new and never did any formating - it seemed to have worked okay up until now.

When I am trying to sync music from Itunes to my Photon through the Motorola Media Link software I get a error message after all the music files have transfered. The message says that the MLL has stopped working. None of the music ends up on the phone.
I have updated the Motorla Media software and as far as I know my phone is up to date.

I found another bug that is recreatable. If you are in the middle of sending a text message and using the voice input and talking to the voice input when a call comes in, the voice input is abandoned, the "answer/ignore" screen shows for a second. But before you can answer, the keyboard comes back up and covers it up, so you can't answer the call. And then the keyboard is stuck on the screen. "back" doesn't make it go away (so you still can't answer the call). Even if you go to the home screen, the keyboard is still on the screen. Stock phone, not rooted, all updates applied, etc.

I was receiving the message "There is insufficient network coverage to process your request; Please try again later" only when I tried to open a New York Times site with my browser--other websites opened fine. I received this message repeatedly whether I was on a good 3G connection with Sprint or a very good wi-fi connection, so I knew it had NOTHING to do with "network coverage."

I bought my Golf Edition a few days ago. Ran into some issues but eventually resolved it myself (as I ended up in a circle trying to reach someone that could support me from Motorola but without any luck). Just want to share my experience so that if someone ran into the same issue, they probably can try it.I live in Ontario, Canada. My Motoactv came with US maps and I needed to download Canadian course packs.I have my device connected by USB. I followed the instruction on screen to download the Canadian Ontario packs. It gave it a five seconds trial and gave me an error of "Insufficient Memory, remove some music". I have no music stored and i had over 12 Gb of space left. I reset eveything to factory condition and still didn't work.
I went to a Wi-Fi hotspot at my golf club, got it connected and retried again over Wi-Fi. It didn't work and gave me the same incorrect error message.Getting quite frustrated, I was trying one last time at home before makting the decision to return it, placing the device close to my Wi-Fi router at home. This time it works very well, and downloaded everything.So, it looks like that the "Insufficient Memory" message could mean that the connection between the device and the server is not strong or fast enough and have nothing to do with memory. The work around is to retry in a place when the Wi-Fi connection is very strong and fast.
