Formatting the microSD Card

Formatting a microSD card permanently removes all files stored on the card.

From the Home screen, tap the Apps Key > Settings > Storage.
Tap Unmount SD card > OK to release the microSD card from device use. An icon appears within the Notifications panel to indicate an unmounted microSD card.
Once released, tap Erase SD card > Erase SD card > Erase everything.
- Once completely formatted, the card is automatically re-mounted (reconnected for use by the device).

NOTE

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

Using Media sync (MTP) mode

When you connect the phone and PC using a USB Cable and set your device’s USB connection mode to Media sync (MTP), you will see two removable disks on the PC. You can copy files to/from the removable microSD card.
