When I put my 64GB SD Card as an internal storage, some apps won't work

[suplexcityboy12]

I just got my LEGIT 64GB SD Card. I rapidly put it in my phone and enable internal storage. First, I was impressed but when my apps such as messenger lite, facebook, and more , it doesn't work, it says *app* was stopped working. How can I resolve it. I don't want to root my phone since it can slow it badly. Please answer me.

How exactly did you make the SD card internal? If it wasn't through the following, then it isn't really set as internal. For some reason some manufacturers have added an option claiming it is making the card internal storage when you insert it, but it really doesn't work as internal. Why they do it, I have no idea. Try the following instructions instead.

First, you need to be using a phone that is running at least Android "Marshmallow" (or newer) or be able to upgrade to it. Second, you will need the instructions I am including below. And third, you need a phone that has not been restricted by the manufacturer from making this change. Which does happen.


NOTE: If any of the steps are missing on your phone, or they don't work for you, then you have a phone that either has an older Android version or has been restricted by the manufacturer. If that is the case, you will not be able to use this information.


How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage on "Marshmallow" a.k.a. 6.0.

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" a.k.a. 7.0.

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.

Yes! I followed the instructions, It is internal. But same problem occured.

First I would suggest you scan the device for any virus, malware, etc. That can cause this. Then, should that not be the problem, I would ask if you downloaded the apps to the phone and then moved them to the card, or downloaded directly to the card? If the former, then you may want to uninstall them and download directly to the card. On some devices downloading to the phone and then moving over to the card (after it is made internal) can cause the app to act up. One way around it is to download the app directly to the card rather than the move over.
