Hey, #Android #GalaxyTabA and similar folks: my old tablet is nearly out of internal storage (15.8 of 16 GB used), but the more detailed breakdown only shows about 2.5 GB actually used (see pics)(because nearly all my apps and data are on the SD card). Any suggestions for finding/clearing out this Black Matter?

@msbellows On my very few android tablets (mostly of the kind where Amazon has muddled around with its greasy coding fingers) I have found that the SD card will either self-destruct (which is in the nature of SD cards) or that the OS will itself mess up the card's file system to the point where it needs to be reformatted and the file system rebuilt and the contents reloaded.
