Formatting a Memory Card Tip: Memory Cards written to and/or formatted by other devices are likely to slow your phone's response to commands and produce other unwanted results. To avoid such problems, format a used microSD Memory Card after inserting it in your handset. Formatting a microSD or microSDHC Memory Card erases any data currently on the card and creates multimedia directories compatible with your phone. Caution!: Repeated formatting of a microSD card reduces its service life. So, don't reformat a Memory Card just to free up storage space. To regain space on a microSD card already formatted by your phone, just delete unwanted files. (For more information, refer to "Card Memory" on page 185.) 1. From the Memory Manager menu, tap Card Memory ➔ Format Card. You are prompted to confirm formatting of the Memory Card. 2. To format the Memory Card, tap Yes.
