sd card cache storage

luisrojo — Mon, 24 Nov 2014 23:10:51 GMT

everyone Im having some issues saving my offline playlist on an Android 4.4 (BQ Aquaris e4.5 & Kingston 32gb class 10). Though Ive deleted cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, etc...for several times, every single time i open a new unused installation I got a warning screen which says it was no possible to access to sd card since ther isnt any.

Then, it launches properly and i can save in the intern memory of the phone which is 5gb to share with everything else.

What can I do??

Can you follow the steps in the issues guide linked in my signature for a clean install. I have a feeling you may still have the cache folder on your sd card which is causing this issue

Hi. I just reseted my phone to basics, right now I have only spotify installed on it, and I still cant save cache in the sd. Im desperated, i wouldnt like to be forced to "root" it since its a pretty new phone and it would lose warranty. It feels strange that using the main storage unit (32gb dedicated vs 5gb shared) looks like ive to be kind of cracking it, moreover when im paying every sinngle month for phone offline features

Did you follow the guide at the top of the forum? I suspect your sd card requires formatting

Yes. I did format it, several times, i activated and desactivated it, restarted the phoned and install spotify again.
Also, im saving pics and videos on it from the camera.

Sounds like your SD Card is corrupt I'm afraid.

better choose an SD card with 64 GB or 128 GB capacity because Spotify put so much garbage on your phone that your crd is full in no time;

I use an 46 GB SD card and when i play everyday Spotify the SD card is full in 30 Days...

Then i have to download all my music again ???

CRAZY SPOTIFY ... WHEN WILL THEY SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ???
