Mount the microSD Card

When you install the microSD card, your phone automatically mounts it, creating a data
connection between the card and your phone. If you have previously unmounted an SD card,
but have not removed it from your phone, you will need to mount it again in order to access its
contents.

1. Press

>

and tap Settings > Storage.

2. Tap Mount SD card. The SD card will be mounted and ready to use.

Format the microSD Card

Formatting a microSD card permanently removes all files stored on the card. (The SD card must
be mounted before formatting. See

Mount the microSD Card

.)

1. Press

>

and tap Settings > Storage.

2. Scroll down the screen, tap Format SD card > Format SD card > Delete all.

Important!

The formatting procedure erases all the data on the microSD card, after which
the files CANNOT be retrieved. To prevent the loss of important data, please
check the contents before you format the card.

Unmount the microSD Card

When you need to remove the microSD card, you must unmount the microSD card first to
prevent corrupting the data stored on it or damaging the microSD card. Since you will remove
the battery first before you can remove the microSD card, close all running applications on your
phone and save any data first.

1. Press

>

and tap Settings > Storage.

2. Tap Unmount SD card. Tap OK.

3. Remove the microSD card. See
