Setting up your storage card as internal storage

When you insert a storage card that has not been used on HTC Desire 826 before, the card will be mounted as removable storage by default.

If the storage card is new or doesn't have content you want to keep, you can format the storage card to use it as internal storage for HTC Desire 826.

Important:

• See Should I use the storage card as removable or internal storage? to find out the differences between using the storage card as removable storage or internal storage.
• If there are still files on the storage card, back up the files first before you format the card.

1. From the Home screen, tap > Settings > Storage.
2. Under Removable storage, tap the storage card name.
3. Tap Format as internal.
4. Tap Erase & format.
5. Tap Format.
6. Follow the onscreen instructions to move your installed apps and their data from the phone storage to the storage card.

Tip: If you no longer want to use your storage card as internal storage, you can reformat the card as removable storage. Before you do so, make sure to move all the apps and data from the card back to the phone storage. See Moving apps and data between the phone storage and storage card.
