I bought new 32GB Samsung memory card and i'm using Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015). Everytime I tried to transfer my apps to memory card, it showed up not enough memory. I check storage setting in memory card section is 170MB used of 31.24GB. Why is this happen? And the apps that successfully transfered lost soon after I restart or off my phone. Then I had to redownload again. Please help me solve my problem
 
Well, it may well be that you can't put apps on the SD card with that device. It happens. 1. You need to be running at least Android "Marshmallow", 2. you need the instructions I have included below, and 3. Your device has to have not had this option restricted by the manufacturer.


How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage on "Marshmallow".

NOTE: Please be sure you start with a blank SD card. It needs to be blank because when the card is converted to "Internal" storage, it will be formatted (wiped) and encoded (making the cards data only readable by that device).

1. Go to device “Settings”, then select “Storage”.
2. Select your "SD Card", then tap the “three-dot menu“ (top-right), now select “Settings” from in there.
3. Now select “Format as internal”, and then “Erase & Format”.
4. Your SD Card will now be formatted as internal storage.
5. Reboot your phone.

NOTE: If you don't reboot the phone, many things may not work correctly, so make sure you do.


How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage on "Nougat".

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure you start with a blank SD card. When the card is converted to "Internal" storage, it will be formatted (wiped) and encoded (making the cards data only readable by that device), so anything on it prior would be gone.

1. Go to "Settings", and then select "Storage & USB".
2. At the bottom of the list you should see the SD card's details, including the option to format it and make it "Internal" storage.
3. Once this is done, reboot the device and you can start running things from the card.

If you don't reboot the phone, some things may not work correctly, so make sure you do the reboot.
