  1. I keep getting an error saying that there is not enough room on the SD card to move over an app of 3.2 GB and yet I still have over 70GB of space left on my SD card. Why?

  2. Have a Galaxy S7. bought 128GB micro SD card. Transfferred about a dozen apps over to the sd card and now the phone does not see/recognise the SD card?

  3. No. My S9 tells me I must give it the certain permissions but the instructions on how to do that are complete gibberish.
